I’m genuinely asking here, are you a moron? Just the quote I posted stated the multiple years studied. You don’t even have to read the article let alone the study. But just in case, from the article

A separate analysis that controlled for a history of violence — but only for fiscal year 2016, due to a lack of data for other years — produced similar results.

Your reading comprehension is so abysmal you’re either an idiot or being willfully disingenuous.

What you quoted wasn’t from the study, it was written by Vox.
Are you stating the study didn’t state that it recreated years due to not having data for violent crime?

Are you suggesting that the only reason for a difference in sentencing is strictly based on race? That there’s no underlying circumstances? Are you also implying that unless I take the same childish position that I’m actually not for equal treatment under the law?

Why aren’t concerned that Hispanics are sentenced to lesser terms than Blacks, or that Women are sentenced to lesser terms than men? Because you don’t care about the sentencing, you care about the political narrative.

No wonder Dion doesn't understand anything. He starts with premise that everything is racist. And if you don't have same stupid belief patterns, then everyone is a moron
 
I get that this man/woman or whatever it is, is mentally ill but why journalists go along with it, is really disturbing. I tried reading the article but they kept referring to “they or their” did something. Do they not see that pronouns serve a purpose?

100%. The study didn't recreate anything. The violence addendum was a supplemental addition only done for the year they had data(2016).

All yes.

Hispanics aren't sentenced to less time, black people are sentenced to more. And yes, women being sentenced to less time than men is sex discrimination and bias just like black people getting more time than others is racial discrimination and bias.
 
The lyrics and use of the word slave in 3rd verse refer to American sailors who were forced to work on British navy vessels. That’s a major issue for African Americans. They have convinced themselves they’re the only people ever enslaved. So any time the word is used it automatically refers to them. Each and every race of people on the face of of this earth has been enslaved at some point. Let’s just crank up the printing presses and give reparations to us all!
 
Well, if that's what they said.

Women receive far more lenient sentences than men for the same crime, but it's not because judges hate men. The reality is you can't really adequately account for all variables... the only real privilege is can you afford quality representation, which they never even bother to consider.

Which is incidentally the real issue here. Your lot hate the competent; you hate people better off or more successful than you and want them brought back down to your level in the name of equity.

Ding ding, we have a winner. Same reason rich people get lesser sentences than poor people. It has absolutely nothing to do with color of skin and everything to do with the color of money. A rich black person will get a lesser sentence than a poor white person, etc. It is because of the lawyer that each can afford. The only other discrepancy other than financially, is females receive lesser sentences than males. Saying it is because they are black is a classic mistake made in conducting experiments and analyzing data. You go looking for something and when you find it, you automatically think it was what you were looking for when in fact the cause is a completely different factor. People like Dion break everything down by race ignoring all other factors that can be and usually are the deciding factor.

I started with the same propagandized premise we're all fed, that America is the greatest and best country in the history of the world. Standing for freedom, equality, and democracy. Learning about the reality of history woke me up from that delusion. I would suggest that pursuit of knowledge to all, but I know anything that requires reading or thinking is beyond your pay grade.

That was the goal Dion. It absolutely hasn’t been perfect. Because human beings are imperfect. But if another nation has done it better I’m not aware of it.

Which is exactly why we need to strive every day towards the realization of that goal. Not rest on our "America's the best, love it or leave it!" laurels.

Why do the vast majority of debates with a liberal end up in them calling you dumb and/or racist? It's because they get curb-stomped on the issues of the debate and have to resort to either demonizing their opponents as a racist or try to make themselves out as having a superior intellect and/or education.

Here's a fun fact for you. You are not the smartest person in the room no matter how much you think you are. I would venture to say that many of us in here have as much or more education as you. And based on your posts, I would certainly say that we have more wisdom than you as well.

Of course money is the main factor in sentencing disparity. As a Marxist class struggles are always the first and foremost concern that affect us all. But when controlling for economic differences studies all show that racial sentencing disparities still exist. Are you denying that entirely?

Agreed. But it’s been proven time and time again that Marxism is not the answer to that problem.
False. We have no idea what Marxism will look like in America.

Everything is racist!

Lol, I guess making over 6 digits in a low tax state is "below pay grade". Plus academia isn't all that smart. Just a bunch lowly educated people with good connections in departments of worthless, useless practicality in over paid universities

You didn't earn anything in life. You're just a spoiled rich kid living off your parents

holy hell that’s the dumbest post in the history of catpaw.
 
If only these idiots were half as smart as they think are, no actual critical thinking ability whatsoever.

A Disparity no more proves bias than Pippen not getting a last second shot to Kukoc proves Phil Jackson was racist. It’s no less ignorant of a claim to make, just much easier to see through Pippen’s bs for the average person than it is the pseudoscience of social sciences.

What tends to actually happen with these “studies” is that on the rare occasion they are competently done, they show any disparity isn’t related to racism but other contributing factors which get deflected under the lie of systemic racism in an infinite loop of circular reasoning. Furthermore it’s the case that black people are more likely to “oppress” other blacks in this so called systemic racism than whites.

The reason for that is simple, race or bias isn’t causal. At. All.

Zero. Zip. Zilch. Nada.

But when it’s your career to be the hammer, everything looks like a nail. A hammer that doesn’t promote justice or equality, but the opposite, nevermind fundamental American values and greatness, which they can’t understand.

Unbelievable, actually it’s not, you answered a question I posed yesterday.
You’re also the guy that just tried to convince me the RCV is a good way to vote…hello NYC.

Hispanics are sentenced to less time than blacks, per the study you cited. Are the racist judges slightly less racist toward Hispanics? No, you’re taking a simplistic look at a very large picture, where the only it can possibly be in your mind is race.
I am not going to play your game of lumping Americans into racial boxes, it’s disengenuous. You can’t lump thousands of individual cases in neat, little boxes.
 
Vaccines typically take 10-15 years of trials.

Again- no sane reason to force this on anybody, except those at extreme risk….much less kids.
Yes, but they generally take 10-15 years bc of government regulation. Unless we're now saying big govt is good and reasonable. The approval process is asanine filled with beaurocracy and paper work then waiting on govt approvals which moves at no efficiency. Also, investment takes time for production and materials....never before has every country able thrown billions to let them jump from the get go. Also, the vaccines have been studied for a decade...just not on this particular coronavirus. There was no rush to push out a vaccine for existing ones or sensible investment when vaccines for the others already existed.

The vaccines were a marvel of capitalism, with private companies saving everyone when the govt got the eff out of the way. Really disproving only the govt is altruistic theme. Which would you rather take if you were forced to take one...these or the Chinese one?

With that said, I don't think it's necessary to vaccinate children.

False. We have no idea what Marxism will look like in America.
Karl Marx was a useless POS who never held a job in his life. What makes him the foremost authority on how a countries Government should operate?

Marxism is a foolish ideology. You do realize you can’t have things like higher wages without capitalism to support it.
