@OKnox Just curios what does it mean when Obama says systematic racism in the justice system and blacks get longer sentences -
Who does set the sentences? Its not ok to go after one judge but it is ok to attack the credibility of all?
-
congress sets the sentences
-
Yes but sentences are passed out by the judge and they can vary case by case or blacks could not get longer sentences
-
judges have some discretion. In state courts it's different and discrepancies are greater there, esp in certain states
