    The U.S. Sentencing Commission reported in March 2010 that in the federal system black offenders receive sentences that are 10% longer than white offenders for the same crimes. Marc Mauer of the Sentencing Project reports African Americans are 21% more likely to receive mandatory minimum sentences than white defendants and 20% more like to be sentenced to prison than white drug defendants.

    This is just one example I got from google

    "The same crime"
    Unless both people killed the same man at the same time in the same place with the same gun in the exact same way it's not "the same crimes".

    There's a lot of nuances and most of it is down to individual judges and their judgment.
    10% at the end of it is pretty insignificant. What one dude got 10 years and another got 11?
    Are black defendants more likely to be repeat offenders by any chance?

    So because one person was murdered one way and the other was murdered another it means the crime is different? You're not very intelligent

    Also no 10% is the Average out of thousands of cases. That is ridiculously high.

    Yeah I'm done with you after this post. You really have no understanding of time and the issues that are being discussed. If you did, you would know 8 years is nothing in comparison to how long these issues have been around.

    Best of luck to you though. I can tell you need to live a little longer and expand your awareness on these issues before you understand where I'm coming from.

    Lol he tweets this as if we're suppose to be shocked that his chief of staff agrees with him. The people who get upset by these protests, are the same people who are sitting on their a----s at home watching the national anthem before the game starts. Hypocrites.

    I knew this would happen. It's hilarious seeing these protest backfire with majority of nfl fans on the army rangers side lol can't wait for tv ratings to be down next week too. Police brutality needs another fix.

    In Africa? Yeah they were the ones capturing people from tribes and selling them off to the Portuguese merchants for silver and sugar.

    Funny that slavery was made easier by black people selling out to the white man lol.
    Yes it totally f---ing means that. There's intent and method. There's the effect of the victims and their family.

    They are different crimes.

    Do you know what an average is?

    Not it's not. Because different area's have different standards for prosecuting and those area's have specific demographics that commit certain crimes.

    10% is f---ing small, and given the massive variants for things such as sentencing, it means there were some black people who ended up getting less time than their white counterparts. A difference across the line of at best 1-2 years in sentencing is f--- all tbh.

    Jerry Jones taking a knee is HUGE. I was shocked to see that. I'm really glad he did though.

    "These issues"
    We are discussing america being a racist country and black people being oppressed.
    If the problems facing black people are so deep yet so vague in an otherwise completely equal constitution (at face value presumably), that brought forth it's first black president before it's first female president, then i'm inclined to call bs on your claims of institutional racism.

    The argument that "some laws target black people". Just implies that black people are significantly more likely to commit that particular crime. Law abiding citizens aren't being oppressed by American law.

    Well s---, the American Mainstream has spent the last 2 years relentlessly attacking trump. People having a negative opinion of trump is not a f---ing argument at this point. It's inevitable given the propaganda and smears aimed at him.

    kraft and brady have openly supported trump in the past, not to mention the jaguars owner donated money to trumps campaign and still protested. the point is even people who have openly supported trump before do not believe in his stance

    You're really dumb. NFL owners donated millions to trump. It's not hard to criticize a guy who says outlandish s--- on weekly basis.
