Some of you may remember when a young white female shot a bullet into my apartment (
here) only to ultimately get a pass on the felony charge of recklessly discharging a firearm. I believed her 'walk' on the charge would have never happened had she been black or Latino. This youtube bit by the Onion News Network may qualify as satire, but I found it very life-like pertaining to considerations to give justice a kick in the pants.

ReplyDeleteThe Onion is spot on sometimes. This is one of those times. Brilliant satire!
ReplyDeleteJames, as I (thought) I said at the time, the woman who fired the gun into your apartment was probably let off more because she is a woman than because she is white. The disparities in incarceration and sentencing between the sexes is an order of magnitude greater than the disparities between races. And yet it never seems to bother anyone who matters that well over 90% of prisoners are men.
