it's aggressively policed in areas of higher violence, which is going to be the inner city...which is where you find more minorities
This is a smokescreen and is only partially true.

violent crime is the main factor in police presence
It's part of it, but not the lion's share.
SFP, I really implore you to read this book I really want to get your opinion on it. It speaks to a lot of the things we are currently discussing and I would value your perspective as an attorney.

...what? because you don't agree with it? or because it shatters your argument?

how do you know i haven't?
super liberal guys in my field always send me shite similar to that, also. i know what the arguments are
the biggest failure of the argument is that they presume 1 of 2 things: (1) the "system" purposefully made young black males (YBMs) make bad choices or (2) YBMs made their own decisions but their decisions are no different than middle class white people
the former clients i have who make it after being away from the CJS realize they made a decision based on risk-reward. they enjoyed the rewards but then bitched when the risks were realized. the only way to avoid sliding back is to avoid making bad decisions and living with the effects of prior bad decisions.
this applies to white, black, male, and female.
