Because some of the folks demanding these types of racial equity analyses don't care about Black people at all. They care about increasing their own power and reach, and anti racism is how they do it. They can say and do anything they want in the name of anti racism. And those who oppose are per se racist.


And they all seem to be from the same party.


They do. And it's my party. It's a feel-good place to be -- getting rid of racism. It doesn't get much better than that, and it's addictive. But when you really drill down into the details, you see that things are not as simple as they seem. And crime is one of them. Yes, there is differential offending. Yes, there is differential victimization. Vulnerable communities of color are more susceptible to victimization than anyone. Equity likely means pouring more police resources into those communities, because, as the racial equity impact assessment says, public safety is a public good, and it is the foundation from which everything else can thrive - housing, education, health, careers.

The answer isn't no police and no punishment. The answer is professional police and right-sized punishments.


And now we, as a society, have come full circle. Extra policing in minority communities but this time for their benefit?

The use of policing as a social engineering tool, whether for good or bad reasons, has always been the problem.


No, it hasn't. The absence of the police leads to vigilante justice. And at worst military intervention.


Huh?

Name one example of where using policing as a social engineering tool, either positive or negative rules based on demographic differences, has ever worked.

Unequal policing of communities is racist. Blacks do not commit crimes at a higher rates than Whites.


Blacks in general? No. And, it's also not valid to generalize because yes, there are parts of America where whites commit most of the crime.

But here in DC, there's a small segment of blacks that make up 1% of DC's population that is committing 90% of the crime. It's not unfair to incarcerate the people actually committing the crime.

They absolutely do. Especially violent crime. You can say that stems from structural racism too, but it is a fact.

It’s just a parenting problem. Maybe there should be a professional parenting service that can assume those duties for these kids/juveniles.


Black parents are just as good as White parents. Are you suggesting we take children away from Black parents?
