Of course the fact that capital crimes are committed by "a disproportionate number of people from a racial group" is not considered.
Doesn’t matter ~ can patch this up simply by executing more white murderers. Certainly can’t be anyone opposed to that eh!
You make a valid point here...
They ought to be 50% of the population of death row.
The fact that they aren't means that other races are being discriminated against.
I wouldn’t want hurl that additional accusation until checking out the details, which is where the devil is (or angels are). OF COURSE the prosecution is going to point out that more such crimes arise in black areas. It could end up a statistical wash once both sides have their say.
this country is going insane, actually gone insane.
we give jobs to some based on their color
we give positions based on color
so much for MLK speech of I have a dream
now we should look at the courts too.
astounding
This may well come back to haunt the governor.
stop right now
you are using too many facts and too much common sense
the left will never understand it if you keep doing that
“Do you know why there are so many blacks in prison? Because they committed crimes.” - Ken Hamblin
This world-class idiot is making Easley look like Reagan.
if blacks are 12% of the population then how many robberies do they do per cent wise?
How many homoe invasions?
shop lifting
rapes
etc
while we’re on the % wise then how much do whites use in welfare,
how many blacks on welfare?
how many Asians?
How many Hispanics?
How many Europeans?
would be interesting to see if a % of the population use certain issues against their % of the country
It isn’t that simple either. The wave of DNA evidence exonerations of a decade or so ago did free more blacks than whites. Since more imprisonable crimes arise in black areas, given a similar rate of mistakes all over the country it is likely that more blacks will be mistakenly punished, beginning as suspects found near the crime, than will be whites.
This is pure unadulterated Horse crap.
What’s happened to North Carolina?- it is becoming like Massachusetts or Vermont!
Can’t throw around stats sloppily, or you’re no better than those who misuse them.
For example, both the following are true:
More white babies are aborted than black babies.
PER CAPITA, more black babies are aborted than white babies.
I regret to say that it’s going to Hell in a handbasket as the saying goes.
IIRC, the last 10-15 years it has been the most sought after destination for northeastern retirees.....
Infestation with northeasterners, DCers and urban Marylanders.
This is pure unadulterated Horse crap.
what on earth are you on about?
Are you saying that we do not give jobs based on color?
Are you saying that MLK never said he wanted a color blind nation in a speech?
just exactly what are you saying is horse crap?
