Joseph Said
A far far higher percentage of blacks are criminal than are whites. So when an officer pulls over a black suspected of a crime, there’s a far greater likelihood he’s a criminal than a pulled over white. Are law enforcement officers supposed to ignore this difference in likelihood?
Response: This does not explain why when two individuals who are pulled over for the EXACT SAME CRIME–no question, both are guilty, whites get treated one way and blacks the other.
Health: There are multiple opinions as to why poverty and crime are higher in the black community from we brought them here as slaves and then kept them down with Jim Crow so its all our fault to their leaders only care about lining their own pocket and everything in between.
the hagaddah says that without g-d, we would not have escaped Egypt. I realize some read that metaphorically, but regardless, it has been thousands of years. My grandmother (who passed away 10 years ago) remembered fondly when blacks had to be off of Miami Beach at night.
So its a complicated issue that certainly cannot be done justice here, though it is entertaining to try while I am sick today and spending more time here than usual.
