I would really like to see the evidences for the many claims you have made here.
Or, could the possibility exist, that men commit a disproportionate amount of the crime?
Why when you see such a disparity do you automatically assume that something unfair is happening and that it has to be racial in nature?
Could it not be cultural? Could it be possible that African Americans are simply committing a disproportionate amount of crime?
Also, unless the reason for arrest is - "You're black" - you can't claim that this is an example of systematic oppression due to race.
If a black person receives a longer sentence than a white person - when all the facts of their respective cases are completely equal (unlikely) - why do you automatically assume it has to do with their race?
You don't consider that they and their lawyer made up a bad defensive strategy? Pushed for the wrong thing? Made the wrong deal?
Are you sure they are okay with you using their script?
Afircan Americans really need to stop voting for Democrats. They have never gotten anything from Democrats...well...besides slavery, Jim Crow and the KKK.
Base our democratic process solely on race.
That will solve racism. (Sarcasm)
Look, you can't force black people to run for office.
You also can't force anyone to vote for a black person that is running for office.
It is the mentality of whiny spoiled losers to accept the rules of a competition - but then blame an unfavorable outcome on unseen or imaginary factors.
You automatically assume - without evidence - that a black person can only lose an election because he/she is black and that the voters are racist.
The People choose who they want to represent them. That is our system of government.
Show me a clear cut example of a black person being denied a position of power in the government due to a racist government system.
Then explain how Obama overcame that racist government system.
The fact that you instantly blame race (or white people) for any disparity among racial communities is not logical.
You need to consider other factors if you want to fix the issues.
I never claimed that there are no racist people in the U.S.
I only claimed that there is no systematic oppression. No laws or policies made that are designed to kick black people down.
If you find any actual example of systematic racism - I will protest them with you.
Either way - nope - an individual being racist is not an example of either "systematic" or "systemic" oppression.
There are people in positions of power that NEED to keep saying that there is inequality in order to justify their continued existence.
Unless they can complain about inequality - Democrats have nothing to run on.
So you and many others take their bait - hook, line and sinker - and by so doing continue to push false narratives that further divide us as a nation.
You've been brain washed, honey.
Do you also claim that since men make up the vast majority of prison inmates in the U.S. that our legal system is sexist against men?Black people are still far more likely to be arrested, tried and given longer sentences than white people.

You don't think that this has anything to do with bad credit? Or having no credit?They are more likely to be denied loans, mortgages and properties
Wait. I thought this was a Feminist talking point.less likely to be promoted
Are you sure they are okay with you using their script?
Also more likely to flee or resist arrest - which leads to police officers using force.more likely to be victims of police violence
Not an example of systematic oppression, but evidence of disproportionate amount of violence in African American communities.and are more likely to be victims of violence in general
I blame Democrats for these. It is due to their anti-business policies and mismanagement of government resources.and companies and local governments are less likely to spend money on development in majority black communities.

It is, but if you still consider it to be a problem - vote exclusively for minorities.It really isn't.

What led you to ask this question?Are you seriously this naive?
Wow. You swallowed that whole "boogeyman" narrative whole, didn't you?Yes it is. When you have a community that votes against black people because of either ingrained racism, or a governmental system that actively prevents black people from obtaining positions of power, that is systematic oppression.

You also can't force anyone to vote for a black person that is running for office.

Kinda blows a hole in your "systematic oppression" argument.Nope. But does that mean that all of the other obvious signs of racial inequality no longer exist?
The fact that you instantly blame race (or white people) for any disparity among racial communities is not logical.
You need to consider other factors if you want to fix the issues.
So?Also, Obama experienced a lot of racial prejudice in getting to where he got.
I never claimed that there are no racist people in the U.S.
I only claimed that there is no systematic oppression. No laws or policies made that are designed to kick black people down.
If you find any actual example of systematic racism - I will protest them with you.
The only thing you shared that could even be considered an example of systematic oppression is the idea of police targeting and I still dispute it.Being less likely to be a victim of violence, police targeting, public derision and abuse, more likely to be promoted, earn more money, be granted loans, mortgages and property.
Wow. That is so much evidence! I'm convinced! (Sarcasm)Practically all institutions.
Whoops. I just realized that I've been saying "systematic" instead of "systemic". My bad.Yes it is.
Either way - nope - an individual being racist is not an example of either "systematic" or "systemic" oppression.
And you drank all the Kool-aid.Then you're 100% blind.
