This is some strange definition of "2nd Class Citizen" with which I'm wholly unaware.

Don't ruin his false narrative. He doesn't like being uncomfortable.

So you agree that incarceration rates among groups directly relate how violent that group may be, and not just racism. We're making progress

Absolutely. But there is also a correlation between people getting probation vs prison time and race.

Women get probation 2-1 over men, including black women. So if it's purely racial, why are white men incarcerated at a much higher rate than black women?

You night have to consider criminal past, or other elements of the crime.

My guess, if you really wasn't to see inequality of the system look to the poor/rich divide instead of race.

There has been a major drop in Black folks imprisonment rate sinc 2000 while the rate for whites is increasing


The incarceration rate for white males is 465 per 100,000. Black female is 109

This. It's not a racial issue, it's a socioeconomic one. I mean hell just watch LivePD...it's never the well dressed, well spoken white or black people that get stopped. It's always the "culcha" folks. No matter their skin color.

In fact Greenville, SC and Florida is usually always some trashy white guy in a wife beater hiding in his trailer

This is my biggest issue with these obtuse data interpretations. They never take into account criminal history or additional charges at the time of arrest.

For instance, they'll simply look at a conviction for simple possession and will completely ignore the fact that they caught that charge in conjunction with a resisting arrest with violence charge. Therefore, they deem these people as "non-violent".

He is an idiot who should keep his mouth shut. He is a great coach who knows nothing of middle America or the struggles they face .

You're right, this isn't going to magically go away, because marxists like Popoff will always be trying to push their social conflict down everyone's throats in order to gain political power.

This right here is some bold honesty that a lot of people don't want to hear, but you can't deny the truth behind it. This isn't going to magically go away. The conversation will continue to drive forward. Instead of complaining about it, join in the discussion. 


You're outta your fricking mind with this shite. Nevermind the "advantage" being bullshite, black people claiming racism and oppression don't want a conversation. They want to scream and yell and have us take it quietly then apologize. frick that, frick them, frick Pop and frick you.

Because being treated like a 2nd class citizen is still better than living in the shithole they are from? That doesn't invalidate the point.


It's funny you keep saying this and yet somehow racial minorities like Indians and Asians have a higher median household income in this country than whites and first generation minorities continue to come to this country and work their asses off and have an upward mobility unprecedented in all the world.

I even personally know first generation Africans who are very successful in this country and enjoy an upper middle class lifestyle at a young age. Are you really going to argue that we treat all minorities like second class citizens or could it be more of an example of supior cultures?

Do you not see any connection between Asian And Indian cultures valuing close-knit families, education and hard work? It is now to the point where Asians are facing reverse affirmative action selection in elite schools because they are just too damn successful as an ethnic group. If anything present day millienial white culture could lead a thing or two from these groups success rate in this country.

The Left should keep this up and make white people really uncomfortable. That will help things.
