Whatever the explanation, it isn't true that the legal and cj system never works for Blacks.

They got this whole game working in their favor.

ETA: Are you saying that this is what people incorrectly claim or is this what you believe? If you are saying that this is what people incorrectly claim, I agree with you. If this is what you believe, this is inaccurate.

Not everyone believes the prosecution sucked. Some of us in this thread believe that and have said it numerous times (long thread with long posts). For those who don't believe that, I think Sunny Hostin is among them, it is interesting hearing their perspective.

I want this to be an SNL spoof but I think it's real. Is the timing mere coincidence?

All is right with the world:

U.S. gun group raises $12,000 for George Zimmerman

I agree that Zimmerman should not be harmed. I only have an issue with the "gun or alarm" thing because gun rights advocates were pushing for Zimmerman to get back his gun. There is something missing in this equation.

No, I'm saying that this is the kind of picture the media paints. They make it seem that white crimes are an individual problem versus black crimes being a collective problem. I also believe that minorities of color in this country are culturally conditioned to believe that European Americans are superior and that other folks of color (especially black folks) are inferior. That's where most of the racial problems stem from.

Thanks for clarifying. I agree.
