After reviewing a series of legal cases, it's quite clear that the U.S. legal system is bias and racist towards blacks. Blacks are always convicted of crimes but rarely protected as victims. Their perpetrators (especially the white ones) are rarely convicted and when they are convicted it's always a lesser sentence.

I'm curious as to why blacks continue to put their faith in the U.S. "injustice system" when we see time and time again, America does not have the black person's interest.

I'm really curious as to why blacks continue to depend on the very same legal system that systematically enslaves us? Why does one put their faith in such a racist legal system, when the outcome is always the same.

Whites do because most of the time the system works for them, but Blacks do not. If Blacks want a system that's more fair, then they should become lawyers, prosecutors, judges, and law makers instead of complaining while doing nothing...

it works out for some blacks. think of it, if it weren't for OJ simpson, murder would still be illegal in california.

what other choice do we have? we're a minority group with barely enough power and unity to keep our head above water.

you're going to have people come into this thread and say something about all the black on white crime, which is more common and blah, blah, blah.

they ignore the facts that
1. crime stats are based on convictions, not arrests

2. most black on white crime has nothing to do with race and everything to do with class and opportunity. there are way more whites than blacks in this country to be victims, and yet most of the victims of black criminals are overwhelmingly black.

the fact is that in the cases where blacks perpetrate crimes against whites they are almost immediately sought out, caught, and convicted. this cannot be said when it is the other way around.

check out this nonsense.

all he had to say is "a black man did it."

The statistics on homicides are based on how many people get killed.

Not sure that much faith is really put into it.

In what ways do you feel that people put so much faith into the legal system?
