But you refuse to consider the reasons for the behavior other than the color of their skin.
Blacks are far more likely to get arrested for the same crimes that Whites get a pass on.
For the same crimes a Black man will get more time than a White man
Blacks get paid less for the same jobs than White people
Schools in minority neighborhoods are grossly underfunded and poorly run.
These are actual facts
No, those are not facts, those are half-truths.
First off it seems you don't personally know any police officers. I do. Police don't like to arrest anybody. While it may look like a cool thing when they do it on television, arresting a suspect means they may fight with the officer and an injury or death could occur. They have to make out a shitload of paper work. Then they have to attend court in case the judge has any questions in the case. It's not fun and games by any stretch of the imagination.
Now if you're going to give an officer a hard time while he's trying to give you a break, of course it's more likely you're going to get arrested.
And as I explained to you before, sentencing includes a lot more than just the charge. If we both get arrested for having 3oz of coke and I have a criminal record of using dope and you don't, it's likely I'll get a prison sentence and you'll get time served, a suspended sentence or probation if it's your first offense with the law. If I fight with the cop while being placed in custody, guess what? A judge will really look down at that as well. If I disrespect a judges court by attending in a tee shirt and ripped up jeans on top of it, it's likely the judge will throw the book at me.
Blacks do not get paid less than whites for doing the same job. It's been against the law for the last couple of generations.
