Oh, my bad, I forgot about that. Almost a million is still very significant...

My point was that your logic isn't foolproof.

I will respond to the other point later today.

It is but out of 330 mil that is not that bad. Poverty rate in Canada is 5%. I am not sure what you are trying to solve for? There is no Utopia.

Right. 1 million is relatively small. The issue comes when you say that it works every single time.

I said there is a 2% failure rate but why obsess with the negatives?

Because it is misinformative to say that everyone who does that suceeds. Also over half don't even get to the middle class? What?

No. Because its what stats state. I would probably arrest more males. Its not because I am sexist. It is because males commit more crimes. What institutions are racist in your fantasy world? Name a few.

BTW I don't have a negative or positive opinion about anyone. I take everyone as an individual. 22% is significant. I explained why it is so high. Single parenthood and lack of generational monies. How is that institutional racism when they don't have wealthy parents? I don't understand this logic whatsoever?

Do you want a cracker?

I mean that if you were to see a white and black person doing the exact same thing, you would arrest the black person more. On average.

FACT: More innocent black people get arrested and convicted. That's instituional racism. If every case was truly treated individually, the numbers would be even by race. The fact that black people commit more crimes is irrelevent. It should be even no matter what. But it isn't.

As you pointed out, slavery and Jim Crow laws were racist institutional practices that still affect us. The same can be said for redlining. And as I just said, police and justice system are biased. Then there are a ton that are poverty based. These are not racist, but obviously affect black people disproportionally because, well, they are in poverty more.

You pointed it out yourself. Slavery and Jim Crow. Kept them in poverty long afterwards.

Yes there WAS racism. Those laws are long gone. Policing does need to improve. For ALL races. They bust my chops for no apparent reason when they pull me over as well. Apples and oranges I get it but my point is the police need more training. BTW black police officers are many times worse to black persons.

What else do you consider institutional racism? What institutions?

You just said that those laws still affect black people, lol. So which is it?

Policing does need to improve. Again, body cameras, training, accountability.

Those three are the only ones I can think of right now.

What? I said LONG GONE. The after effects impact them because of multi generational wealth. Do you not think the after effects of the Holocaust still impact Jewish people? You don't see us complaining. We had to start new as well but we built up our wealth quicker.

OK, so they cannot complain about it. The effects of multi generatonal wealth don't affect them.

So what is the reason for the 70-40 split?

Does generational wealth affect them or not?

Yes. And? It impacts Jewish people too. You need to overcome it and not rely on the Gov't to rescue you. You keep uttering institutional racism. So does bad policing impact people's wealth? If so tell me how. That is the only institution so far that you have pointed to.

Your ignorance is entertaining. Tell me again how Israel is corrupt. LMAO.

Does slavery and Jim Crow still affect black people? I want a yes/no answer.

Bad policing? If you get arrested when you are innocent, you go to jail, lose your job, and have that on your record the rest of your life. If you get killed, well, you are dead.

Netenyahu is.

If you answer yes, then they face institutional racism. If you answer no, then why does the 70-40 split occur?

#1) IT depends on your definition of affect. If you believe the Holocaust still affects Jews then "Yes" if you don't then "No". It affects them in my opinion because they don't have the benefits of generational wealth. But that is the only way. And that impact cannot be cured.

#2) This is true for all races. You are a moron. You didn't answer my question. Learn to read.

#3) In your opinion. You have zero proof. Other than what you see on CNN.

Keep up the good work.

What 70-40 split are you referring to? Is the NBA racist? Y or N?

If N then why is it 75% black?
