This is the reason why you see more black arrests and crime. Because crime for crime, a black person is more likely to be judged faster and harsher for doing the exact same thing in the exact same way. They also receive harsher sentencing for doing the exact same thing as a white criminal. They are less likely to be shown any form of leniency by the police or the legal system. Study, after study has shown this in the U.S. from children being punished in school to the prison system.

Unfortunately, from my time as a cop, I've seen this first hand.
I had a story typed up but I erased it. In the wrong hands, it could have really do some damage. Some things are best left unsaid.
