How about affirmative action?
Blacks represent a minority population, but seem to be getting handouts/jobs over other minority groups.
Is that fair?
Why aren't Asians or Latinos given the same handouts?

Ok, good. Back to Africa then, then they would no longer be a minority. A homogeneous society is always preferable and superior. Since white people are just a problem and descendants of evil cannibals anyway maybe black people could go and live amongst themselves and see how that goes.

Well except for they are not African so that is a stupid answer. They are American as much as anyone else...Maybe if all the white people when back to Europe...lol

Europeans conquered the Americas because we excel in matters of war. Either way, you know segregation would work much better. Thousands of problems amazingly solved like magic. Just cut of all contact between white people and black people, maybe allow some trade but no mingling, we wouldn't want the white devils to pervert the innocent noble savages. I wish there was some scenario where blacks were isolated so we could definitely say whether everything is the fault of white people or not.
Only a black person could tell black people to get their f act together and take full responsibility of where they're at. Maybe Tupac could've done it but they're not listening to no white person. I yell at my people to get their # together all the time.. I'm about done with their liberal bullsh*t
Is it purely impoverishment and economics?

If all things were equal then yes, a proportionate number of whites would be incarcerated.
But all things are not equal, most blacks are living at or below the poverty line, in low income neighborhoods.
We all know that most of these areas are crime heavy, at least more so than upper class neighborhoods.
As I said previously, I won't argue that the police profile blacks more than they do whites.
The initial police contact with them may often come from profiling, but ending up in prison is usually the result of a crime that was actually commited. Drug possession, illegal firearm, etc, etc..
Ok, enough apologizing about profiling because that has nothing to do with this. Take a look at the homicide rates. Does anyone actually believe that the cops profiled the killer to be black, then a judge and jury falsely convicted innocent blacks because they were black? If anyone believes that, I've got some prime swamp ground to sell you.

Let me go ahead and point out the fact that there's something uncomfortable about even reading this thread, something within us wants to either find racism within this, or find a way to use it as a justifiable excuse for dismissing this culture of violence... isn't that f'd up? (Thanks MSM!)
Not at all, maybe a generational thing. But sort of, get where you're coming from, maybe? Lol. Maybe not.
But how would feminism have been advanced if using statistics, ect., been seen, before the get go, as misogynistic? Lol. Failure to launch at its finest. It'd been enmity from the get go.

What the heck is White privilege?
I have been white all my life and I have had absolutely no privileges what so ever.
More things are handed to blacks and Hispanics than whites.
You must be mistaken and you must have meant Ethnic Privilege or minority Privilege because for the last 50 years they are the ones who have had things handed to the on a silver platter.
If you have to ask what White Priviledge is, then you wouldn't comprehend it if someone explained it thoroughly to you.
You would just have excuses as say 'I'm not racist'.
Many do that, it just further reiterates how simple they really are.
(I'm white)
White privelege is a myth created by feminism to give original guilt, to control and manipulate. Its goal is to say that you are invalid because of your race. Talk to the working poor that happen to be white. There is certainly discrimination, but white privelege? No, the only privelege is that of the very wealthy.
For example, if you haave two dogs and their master beats the first once, and the second twice, does that make first dog priveleged? No, obviously not, except in thi new upside down world we live in where reality is no longer reality.
