First, black men are arrested for half the violent crimes in this country. White men are not as often arrested for the same infractions. So you're not comparing apples to apples.
70% of black children are born to single mothers, which has stayed about the same for decades. Over 50% of Hispanic children and over 30% of white children are also born to single mothers. And over 40% of children overall are born in poverty. But it is white men voting for candidates who oppose any social supports to help those children, and it is white men voting for candidates who oppose better access to birth control and abortion, so yes, they are a problem.

This. Women, minorities and foreigners have hustled to get as far as they can. White males in rust belts watched the world pass them by and have done nothing and raised their kids expecting the world to continue the same. Sorry, lazy asses, work harder.
No doubt. They don't even attempt to be rappers or ballers, what losers!

This is where you lost me. Why should men who are alive today have to compete with historical statistics? The women and minorities alive now should be given the chance to succeed, as should the white men. No one is "owed" a position based on their historical representation... you weren't alive then to be wronged. Neither should a group be penalized based on their historical representation, as they weren't alive to benefit from that "privilege."
Tragedy undoubtedly happened throughout much of our country’s history. But my son wasn’t part of the problem. When did we start penalizing people for the sins of other people’s ancestors?
This in no way excuses you of your (and your white son's) obligation to pay reparations to the victms.
We have no obligation to pay reparations to anyone.
