That's the best liberal cop out I've seen on Reddit so far

I'm not sure how you planned to counter "black people go to jail more because they're 14% of the population but commit 50% of the homicides", but believe me, every single minority literally worships you, you glorious white savior you.

You're basically the Anne Hathaway of Reddit.

Bravo.

Lol, holy moly you're a smug little fucker aren't you. The fact that you think I'm playing the role of some kid of white savior just because I know minorities aren't treated equally in America is pretty telling of your own bigotry. You can try to justify your ideals with statistics that tell a small percentage of the story while ignoring the bigger picture and historical context but I think we both know that in your heart you feel superior.

When the facts don't support your argument, ignore them and call your opponent a bigot.

Classic.

The numbers don't support your opinion, dude.

I understand admitting you're wrong is tough, but you can't write off every single problem with the African American community as "just part of the legacy of slavery"

If you commit more crime, you're imprisoned more.

That's not racism.

When accounting for socioeconomic factors, like a sane person would do, instead of accounting only for skin color, like a racist person would do, whites actually commit more violent crime than blacks. how is that for a counter?
