        70% of black kids = no father in the home. Trayvon, Mike brown, ect no dad in sight

        That's because their dads are black.

        Blacks are 7x more likely to commit crime and thus have a rap sheet which means harsher penalties. 13% of population but 50% of murders 🤔

        White privilege = not being biologically predisposed to higher crime rates. Hardly whites fault that blacks evolved differently than whites.

        Maybe you should take a intro biology course at your local community college. #justSayin

        Is that because they are 5 times more likely to commit crimes?

        So are men vs. women. Should we reform criminal laws to fix this too or do more men than women commit crimes?

        It was said, a while back that the prison pop. was 70% Black and Hispanic. I believe that to be true. "Why?" is the question. Hmmm...

        When Dad is only a sperm donor, this is what you get. Mother Jones won't address the root, rather seek racism in every problem.
