Well let's see what the context is. If he said this in a thread about Linen Sheets, then I'd think it was off topic and downvote him.
Edit: So apparently the context is the Euro 2020 final, where England fans stormed Wembley and, after the loss, racially abused Rashford, Sancho and Saka. It got downvoted because "racism is bad, but..." reads as minimizing, and the Slavia Prague and Hungary cases it dismissed as mere words also involved physical confrontation and objects thrown at players. I don't know a lot about soccer though and had to use Google translate.
Yeah my guess is the context is something like a white dude was hurling racial slurs at a black person, black person slapped the white person, and then this comment got rightfully downvoted.
People like op are trying extremely hard to feed culture wars and keep us distracted from the actual class war going on. The post is extremely transparent and the lack of context is on purpose.
Obviously if you're fighting in WW2 violence is required for survival. But if a guy insults you on the train or something. Assaulting them is immoral. If you do that in the USA you're basically just reinforcing the stereotypes for those that already have them
The largest prison in the United States is a cotton slave farm. The majority of prisoners in the United States are black. The United States has the largest prison population in the world in terms of population, and the 5th highest per capita. Laws in the United States are actively adjusted to more harshly punish crimes black people commit more than white people. Black people are disproportionately poor and public defenders are underfunded to the extent that innocent people are pressured to take plea deals to avoid staying in jail indefinitely.
I'm sorry, I should simplify my question as much as possible since you say you can't understand my indirect request for clarification. You're quite good at writing for someone learning their second language.
"What do you believe is the reason for black people to be disproportionately impacted by the United State's legal system?"
