      “The sons of black families from the top 1 percent had about the same chance of being incarcerated on a given day as the sons of white families earning $36,000.”

          It's not about money, it's about parenting. Two parent families, school activities, and attending a church do wonders to keep kids out of prison no matter what color they are.

          Rich white kids committing same crimes haven't faced same sentence. Typical probation options as relativity plays a bigpart on a system

          human beings are different, some are culturally more hard working, some just like to eat free lunch. Grow up, Jack, have some common sense.

          And some live in a systemically racist country that is built on incarcerating and demonizing black people.

          And enslaving them and robbing people of multigenerational wealth for over 400 years while giving each other millions of acres of stolen land while redistributing wealth collected from all Americans to themselves through New Deal programs.

          I don’t mean to be disrespectful,and I’m not a Republican ,but this identity politics theme has grown tiered and it’s very divisive .Doesnt help to be screaming fire in this environment.

          Also, what is not in your tweet, and which is very significant in this study is that fathers matter. Boys of all color do much better when a father is in the house. It's a crisis that needs to be addressed.

          African Americans are 20% more likely to be sentenced to prison than whites who commit the same crime. Stop the systemic racism in the criminal justice system and you’ll have more black fathers at home raising their children

          Marriage rates and economic outcomes for minorities have been falling well before incarceration rates started rising in the 70s. Our criminal justice system has issues but it isn't the cause the economic disparity or family breakdown.http://goo.gl/KQX58i

          Is your point we need to arrest more white people? Sounds racist to me.

          Surely you r smart enough to look at other factors not covered in this story, simply looking at outcomes means nothing...for ex. single parent houses have poverty rates that we 3x higher than average for ALL races...guess how many single parent black families there are...

          But I guess the victim narrative falls apart as we can’t have that, how else would you virtue signal non stop?
