Enforcement of the law is racist... So you say.
So the reason there are more arrests and drug possession in cities is because that's where most black people live, duh. But your article just proves my point; that despite nearly identical use of marijuana, blacks are far more likely to be arrested for possession than whites. That's got nothing to do with
where black populations are centered, and more to do with racist policing standards that are a holdover from 300 years of fugitive slave laws, 100 years of Jim Crow, and 50 years of the War on Drugs.
Which is a part of what Kaep and the players are protesting!
You claim that reason for that is institutional racism. If I say that's bullshit, you'll disagree, so let's see one more chart from the link. Notice where all those racist law enforcement are the worst - in the cities and counties that are overwhelmingly controlled by Democrats for decades.
Well, those are also the areas where black populations are concentrated, so what are you trying to prove?
That there's racism even in city police departments? NO ******* SHIT. Welcome to the conversation!
f you want to claim institutional racism, you need to blame original racists, the party of slavery, KKK, segregation, Jim Crow, lynching laws... they never changed, the same people are doing the same thing for a long time.
To pretend that the Democratic Party didn't shift after Civil Rights is to make the argument that between 1964 and 1980, there was a mass migration of millions of white, liberal Republicans who moved to the South, hardened their views to that of Conservatives and became Republicans, while at the same time a nearly equal number of white, Conservative Democrats moved to the North, softened their views to that of Liberals and became Democrats.
That is just a delusion on your part. Fact is the racist Dixiecrats
became Republicans after the 1964 Civil Rights Act, voted for Nixon, Ford, and Reagan, and are the troglodytes who faint at the sight of a black man kneeling.
Of course, you know this, and your attempt to try to tie Dixiecrats to present-day Democrats is just a Russian Active Measure on your part to conflate the fact that Conservatives are, have been, and always will be racists.
