Our differences of opinion are not in the "how much," but in the "why" blacks are being convicted of so much crime.
Ok, now I understand. Well, I'm sure you will disagree with this but i believe the largest factor is personal responsibility. I'm sure that does not jive with your opinion which is basically to blame everyone except the individual, that tends to be the mindset of your arguements. But I will concede that there has been many injustices done to blacks in the past, but I don't understand how a legal immagrant from India can come here and within a generation he's successful and his kids are in college while a large portion of blacks continue to use the victimhood from "whitey" as an excuse for their poverty, criminal acts, etc.
