But here's the kicker.... he was white as a sheet. Whiter than me in fact. Pure white.
So why did the police bash his face into the ground, and taze/spray, and drag his butt away, and not mine?
Maybe you think that every study, poll and stat in the last 40 years is made up that shows blacks being charged with crimes that whites walk from and serve longer sentences for. The odds are against you tho.
And you must think that because some white people get beaten then its a wash. Again, stats, polls, studies spanning decades disagree with you.
I have looked at most of those studies, and they all fail to take into account a ton of things.
When you have two people who have done equal crimes, in equal ways, with equal past histories... there isn't that much difference in sentencing.
Pause! This statement is a complete and utter lie which shows you disagree with ALL the studies, polls and stats based on your imagination alone. Statistically it is impossible for everyone of them to be wrong and you have no idea what it says if you are going to flat out make it up.
Two people stealing from a quick mart, where one has a decade long criminal history, and the other it's his first offense... or where one passes a note saying "give me your money", verses the other who shoves a pistol in the clerks face... yeah the punishment will be different, based on what they did, or what their history is.
And it should be.
The problem with those studies, is they just look at two people who knocked off a quick-mart, and say "see the black guy got a tougher punishment"... do you know why? Of course not. They never look into why. And because they do not look into why, they just make broad assumptions that it was some 'racism' somewhere.
This paragraph above lies even further. So many white people when saying that decades of stats, polls and studies are wrong always seem to think that they compared Rayful Edmond to Justin Timberlake.
Except they cant ever ever ever quote one study, one poll or one stat that shows this happened. On its face it doesnt even pass the laugh test.
"They compared a hardened criminal to a first time offender" LMAO...Come on bro! I'd ask you to quote just one but its futile because I know it doesnt exist
Pause! This statement is a complete and utter lie which shows you disagree with ALL the studies, polls and stats based on your imagination alone.
Funny how that works both ways huh? I can just accuse you of lying about everything, and claim you base your position on imagination alone.
Right back at you buddy. Fun conversation when accusations are all you need. Please continue.
First you lie again because I didnt say I disagreed with any of the studies. You said you disagreed with all of them because they were all flawed but provided nothign to back it up. So no.
You can but I can prove mine by asking you one question. What are the odds of all the studies, polls and stats ALL compared two unlike situations?
Nearly all of them. Not one of reports I've read thus far, not even one, has even attempt to take into account comparable background. Most simply look at broad definitions of crime. "burglary". White guy burglary verse black guy burglary.
I have looked, actually actively searched for any such information or report, that specifically takes into account similar backgrounds, similar crime, on similar victims. (juries are more likely to hand down a tougher sentence on someone stealing from a little old lady, verses a rich guy in a suburb).
Thus far, I have found none. If you have one, then let me know. I'd like to read it.
