"Racial Impact of Crack Sentencing

For crack cocaine, two-thirds of users in the U.S. are white or Hispanic.

Now who's the biggest ones smoking crack pipes? You probably lit up before you logged in.

Yea, you know, because thugly killers SHOULD be able to improve themselves in lockdown. I mean, it's just like summer camp! For real, you are the perfect example of why your race hasn't come very far without looking for handouts like a fish looks for a hooked worm.

LOL, your stupid beyond stupid, but to smack you up a little please explain to the Bass how a white person with a criminal record has more of a chance at getting a job than a black, educated man wwith no criminal record, since you want to go there about prison convicts. explain this, Mr "Affirmative action isn't needed:
White ex-cons get jobs faster than Blacks with no criminal record, study | Jet | Find Articles at BNET
White job seekers, fresh out of prison, have a better chance at gaining employment than Blacks with no criminal record, according to a Princeton University study of nearly 1,500 private employers in New York City.
The study, Discrimination in Low Wage Labor Markets, investigated discrimination against young male minorities and ex-offenders by employers.
Sociology professors Devah Pager and Bruce Western conducted the study, the largest and most comprehensive project of its kind to date.
It investigated discrimination against young male minorities and ex-offenders by employers, and also showed that young White high school graduates were about twice as likely to receive positive responses from New York employers as equally qualified Black job seekers.
According to the study, a criminal record reduced positive responses from employers by about 35 percent for White applicants and 57 percent for Black applicants.
Even without criminal records, Black applicants had low rates of positive responses, about the same as the response rate for White applicants with criminal records.
The study did find that minority employers were more accepting of minority applicants and job applicants with prison records.
The study used an experimental audit methodology in which teams of young men applied for real job openings throughout the city, presenting the same qualifications and experience.
By recording which applicants were invited back for interviews or were offered jobs, the study shed light on how and when an applicant's race or criminal background may be used as a screening mechanism by employers.
"A lot of people are skeptical that African-Americans still face discrimination in the job market. But even in a diverse city like New York, the evidence of discrimination is unmistakable," said Pager, co-author of the study.
Researchers with the New York-based study sent 13 applicants on nearly 3,500 job interviews with 1,470 private companies ranging from restaurants to manufacturing to financial services. All jobs were entry level.
The National Science Foundation, the JEHT (Justice, Equality, Human Dignity and Tolerance) Foundation and the Policy Research Institute for the Region at Princeton University's Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs funded the study, and the New York City Commission on Human Rights provided office and administrative assistance.
