Approximately one out of three black males has been incarcerated for felonious offenses at some point in his life. 33% isn't exactly a small minority. It's a figure demonstrating that violence, criminality, and indigence is a deeply engrained part of American black culture.
The politically correct, multicultural wing of "conservatism" can whine and call it "thinly veiled racism" all they want, but I just call it facing facts.
Here is something else to keep in mind about that statistic.
There is this nastly little booger in law called the “Suspended Imposition of Sentence”. It is NOT a conviction; which is why so many chitheads and their accompanying chithead attorneys seek it out.
It greases the skids of justice, pun intended, and gets the badguy back out on the street to commit more crime, which in turn keeps all levels of the legal (not justice) system gainfully employed.
I have personally seen records where suspects have been arrested and charged for double digit violent felonies and are still walking the street.
