No.
The majority by ethnic groups committing the crimes are the blacks, closely followed by the latinos.
You coddle criminals, and they propogate like mice.
I forgot the numbers, but IIRC it is 8% of the population committing 30% of the crime.
Want to look at the social impact? 2 parent families see much less crime than 1 parent families. So if we want to solve black crime, which will take a generation at the minimum to reduce, he solution is to push for 2 parent families.
School Vouchers, and letting black people CHOOSE the school to send their kids would be a good start..
There, fixed it.

“Prison sentences for black men tend to be almost 20 percent longer than prison sentences for white men who commit similar crimes.”
The crime itself is only one predictor of sentencing. Another factor is is the person’s criminal history. I venture to say, criminals convicted of violent crimes with similiar criminal arrest histories serve virtually the same time. This is just another attempt to cherry pick a particular stat and use it to convey a misleading point.
And rightly so.
This is not a matter of race, it is a matter of culture. And there is no law against bias toward a threatening culture.
It’s a legal system, not a justice system.
I do not think that's possible. Maybe within the same year but even that would be a stretch. Certainly not within the same, say, week or month. Also, less than 2% of Blacks use cocaine???
If illicit drug use was the same, drug dealers would locate in affluent suburban neighborhoods -- more available money there for profit and inventory. Plus they are much safer than Black neighborhoods! Gov't -- massage the statistics, until they produce the desired PC result.
"We're from the gov't. Tell us if you use illegal drugs." Odds are that whites are more likely to answer in the affirmative (to be "cool") and Blacks less (fear of "The Man"). GI=Go.
Not really. It only spreads the problem around. If the people don’t value education, or actively attack it, vouchers won’t work.
We need to stop enabling the current culture.
If you noticed the article isn’t about Holder so no fixing the title was necessary. That said, I do agree with you that he is racist and there is no doubt about it
Goodman and townhall are going the way of other once-conservative commentators and publications. God help us!
It doesn’t appear that any of the responders to this post actually read the entire article....
So what?
The "justice system" doesn't make anyone ruin their life by smoking crack -- it's trying to prevent it!
“School Vouchers, and letting black people CHOOSE the school to send their kids would be a good start..”
Yes. Housing vouchers (Section 8) and food vouchers (SNAP) have worked so well we need another big federal voucher program.

Nah, it’s not racist. It’s an equal opportunity abuser.
Also, less than 2% of Blacks use cocaine??? Haha
Total BS! More like 20 percent easy. For people that think that stat is high - if they only spent some time in the hood or sec 8 they’d realize.
