Hello bront:

Here's a fact. Federal sentencing guidelines mandate that crack cocaine users, usually poor blacks, serve sentences EIGHTEEN times longer than if they possessed the same amount of powdered cocaine, which is preferred by whites.

If you look at NOTHING other than that, there is only ONE conclusion that you could possibly make, and that is blatant, systemic, institutionalized RACISM runs rampant throughout our system.

Ben Shapiro explained the sentencing disparity between cocaine and crack rather convincingly in the link below:

Hello W:

Nahh.. He gives the drug warriors reasoning, which is black people go CRAZY on crack, and white people DON'T on powder.. It was RACIST then, and it's RACIST now.. His views were the very reason for the massive sentencing disparity. Before the "fair sentence", the disparity WAS 100:1 and they reduced it to 18:1 - as it that made a difference.

Here's a fact. Many cops say they are reluctant to draw on a black more than a white from fear of being labeled racist. Most blacks who are killed are killed by black people. 12% of the population commits 50% of the crime. Quit making excuses for those who breed failure and start praising blacks who just go get it done with no bs excuses. You are enabling violence and rewarding it mindlessly.
