Sorry fella, but that's a sh!tty post. Out of four links, one of them is to a UK site that talks about injustice in the UK. Another is a link to the World Socialist Web Site.

Give me a break.

<< people in worse neighborhoods are more likely to find themselves in jail than people who live in the suburbs or nice neighborhoods >>



Find themselves in jail? You've got to commit a crime though, you can't just wake up in jail. Being poor is one thing, and not neccesarily your fault. If you commit a crime, that's your own decision.

If you ask me, its really more of an income thing and location thing than race thing. It just so happens that there are quite a few minorities living in uhhh...highly urbanized areas.

I'll consent that caucasion, on average, have better advantages (more money == better lawyer, better lawyer == better chance of being set free) in the legal system. I have seen some discrimination, but for the most part, the legal system does what it is supposed to do -- punsih those who commit crimes. You commit a crime, you go to jail.

If you're gonna badmouth the US justice system, it just seems to be you should at least link to articles that about the US justice system and not another country.

Unless I'm mistaken, I didn't say a goddamn thing. I provided some links to aid this discussion which I saw as decidedly one way.
