what? because you don't agree with it? or because it shatters your argument?
Because I think the facts demonstrate it isn't true.

how do you know i haven't?
I don't. I hope you have. I'd like to discuss it.

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
I'm not sure I follow you. But I think you will admit the following is beyond dispute:
a)drug operations are conducted primarily in poor black areas
b)these operations are rewarded/incentivized by cash from the feds
c)con law principles have been thrown to the wind (largely by the SCOTUS) - forfeiture, "consent", etc.

i agree with a-c. that still doesn't make the policy or police racist. the impacts may affect a certain race more harshly, but that's due to a combination of factors (culture, mainly, and its effects on the group)
