No other country has illegal recreational narcotics laws and penalties? Would you like to bet on that?
No other nation has the incarceration rate we do
No other nation has the diversity that we do either. Extract the minorities from our prison system, and what you end up with is similar statistics as other nations.
The very fact that we treat prisoners like hotel guests gives them little fear in being convicted. They have workout rooms, libraries, football fields, three squares a day plus snacks if your family deposits money into your account, and even a little private room where you and your (whatever) can start a family from is hardly a deterrent. Thank your liberal judges for that.
Other nations have poor people who make up most of the prison population
The US has always had a large minority population but our prison population has escalated in the past few decades
You might not have figured this out yet, but if a group of people commit a lot more crimes than other groups, their prison population will be proportionately represented.
Why is our prison population rising so quickly?
We have always had minorities
NEWS FLASH-
Dark people tend to be a bit more savage, far more criminal and far more violent than Caucasians. Piss your panties yet?
But, but, but...DIVERSITY is so ******* great for Americans.
Major Findings
• The evidence suggests that if there is police racial bias in arrests it is negligible. Vic- tim and witness surveys show that police arrest violent criminals in close proportion to the rates at which criminals of different races commit violent crimes.
• There are dramatic race differences in crime rates. Asians have the lowest rates, fol- lowed by whites, and then Hispanics. Blacks have notably high crime rates. This pattern holds true for virtually all crime categories and for virtually all age groups.
• In 2013, a black was six times more likely than a non-black to commit murder, and 12 times more likely to murder someone of another race than to be murdered by someone of another race.
• In 2013, of the approximately 660,000 crimes of interracial violence that involved blacks and whites, blacks were the perpetrators 85 percent of the time. This meant a black person was 27 times more likely to attack a white person than vice versa. A Hispanic was eight times more likely to attack a white person than vice versa.
• In 2014 in New York City, a black was 31 times more likely than a white to be ar- rested for murder, and a Hispanic was 12.4 times more likely. For the crime of “shoot- ing”—defined as firing a bullet that hits someone—a black was 98.4 times more likely than a white to be arrested, and a Hispanic was 23.6 times more likely.
• If New York City were all white, the murder rate would drop by 91 percent, the rob- bery rate by 81 percent, and the shootings rate by 97 percent.
• In an all-white Chicago, murder would decline 90 percent, rape by 81 percent, and robbery by 90 percent.
• In 2015, a black person was 2.45 times more likely than a white person to be shot and killed by the police. A Hispanic person was 1.21 times more likely. These figures are well within what would be expected given race differences in crime rates and likelihood to resist arrest.
• In 2015, police killings of blacks accounted for approximately 4 percent of homicides of blacks. Police killings of unarmed blacks accounted for approximately 0.6 percent of ho- micides of blacks. The overwhelming majority of black homicide victims (93 percent from 1980 to 2008) were killed by blacks.
• Both violent and non-violent crime has been declining in the United States since a high in 1993. 2015 saw a disturbing rise in murder in major American cities that some observers associated with “depolicing” in response to intense media and public scrutiny of police activity.
