Of course it always comes back to race to you. How come white guys get to commit crimes and live, but black guys commit crimes and get killed? Boohoo...how about not commit crime in the first place? It's like if you got pulled over for speeding and you start arguing with the cop why the other guy who was speeding didn't get pulled over too?
Show me ONE instance where anyone has defended the actions of any of the white mass shooters such as Adam Lanza or James Holmes. Hell, even Adam Lanza's DAD said he wished his son had never been born. A criminal is a criminal, regardless of race.
let me step in because I think a different perspective will make things a little more clearer...
In regards to your first point, the fact that white people ate AFFORDED the chance to correct their mistakes and move on and learn from them is am opportunity many black men aren't given.
Take Tim Allen... Dude was on the hook for major drugs... Was able to get a slap on the wrist and move on.
Many politicians have a long history of sexual assault, violence, etc... But in general, they're afforded the chance to learn from their mistakes, especially as younger white men.
The stats show that black people are punished 4x as their white counterparts for the same offense...
So... Of you're a black guy and get caught with some weed... Enough can tack a felony on...
But a white guy might get it pled down to a lesser charge, and eventually eradicated from their record.
The black guy can't get jobs, get fin aid, etc... Because he wasn't afforded the opportunity to grow and learn from mistakes.
Plenty of white people get let go with slaps om the wrist that black men aren't afforded.
Not all but some...
Om regards to your second point.. I think the image that's painted around those guys you mentioned is far less incriminating about their character than black counterparts...
And the MAIM issue is that it's not a direct result of their culture or upbringing.
The public generally doesn't admonish the entire white race when these mass shooters appear...
But when black men are in a high profile case... Every other statistic about the negativities in the black community are brought up.
When Adam lamza did his thing... You didn't here any stats on mass shooters generally being white, or how celebrity kids have tougher ways adjusting to regular society.
With mike brown, black on black crime, black culture. And his upbringing were ALL brought in as to why he SHOULD have been killed...
Just a different perspective because I think you and Mr Marcus are not hearing each others views.
Excuse the typos buy I got burgers on the George Foreman and I'm rushing.
