Speaking of education, you asked several
Questions in your OP and failed to punctuate them with question marks.
Please get an education in grammar before you post again.

No, they still rep the antitrust laws, more than republicans do.

I also believe in higher education in prisons, which conservatives seem to consistently oppose.

That's like saying liberals support late term abortions and reperations. Some do, but most reasonable people don't, don't let that ruin your narrative though

Remember when Burger King was pushing pitas in the ‘80’s?

I don’t but I’m not surprised. That’s about when hummus tried to become popular. And programming the populous to love middle eastern culture in the run up to 9/11.

Only reason this is true is because white people don't get charge with crimes at the same rate as black people. Most white people can't go to jail if they tried. The system allows the criminals in the white community to avoid punishment. If the opiod epedimic is real, why are the vast majority of drug offenders in prison black? More people are on meth, heroin, and opiods than crack. The abusers of meth heroin and opiods are white people. Yet the prison is filled with black drug offenders. The war on drugs was a war on blacks.

Do you know of anyone who has any actual records of the number of whites who are not charged with a crime? Think of what you are claiming. It's just another bogus "I think this, so it must be true" claim accepted as fact. I used to do a lot of work in the system and what I saw was that the criminal element in any race was often not so smart and would do things where they were more easily caught. Smarter crooks tend to get away with it. Poor people tended to be not so smart, and got caught more often. Race alone is not that much of a factor in getting caught.

So you expect those practicing this wrong doing to actually record their wrong doing? See white supremacy deniers will play ignorant to the obvious. Look at the me too movement. Accusations starting flying out left and right against prominent white men. That was done as distraction to make black men the face of me too
offenders. You don't hear anything from the me too movement now that they locked up Cosby with out any proof or admission of guilt.

That is not true when you consider who law enforcement focused on policing. Jeff Sessions was so worried about black identity extremist but white supremacist have run a muck. Look how many white idenity extremist have killed groups of people but we have yet to find one black identity extremist who has killed anyone let alone whooped a white person's arse I mean if the vast majority has subscribed to immorality towards blacks then it won't be long before the chickens come home to roost.

Who wrote the pita bread thing? I can't remember the thread

and just to add something to this thread...

As someone in the middle, I don't think I've ever heard the right not value education. Most people no matter their political stance, I would think, value education. Biggest difference I can see from people around south LA is that they want quality schools. Other parts of the country send their children to public school when the quality is there.

I mean if you really want to point out facts let's point out that Obama had 95% of the black vote. A lot of it had absolute zero to do with any of his policies and more to do with him being black. Same goes for Trump with uneducated white males.

ETA: To downvoter, still true.

Now, in both cases you have the truth
one is true one isnt. The majority of the uneducated are the minorities in southern states. and while they are minorities they have are clost the majority in the southern states, while they are hard to find in the northern states outside of the major cities.

Both are true.

I simply said the majority of uneducated white males in the South voted Trump. I never said white males were the the majority of uneducated persons.

And as I and someone else clarified, the levels of black crime are not as large as they appear. Black Violent criminals tend to have a higher repetition rate. Most violent crime is committed by Blacks, but its typically the same group of Blacks doing the same crimes.

When you break violent crime down by county this becomes very clear.
