John Jones was barely slapped for hit and run with a pregnant lady who broke her arm.
I think though in the south you will definitely find racist judges who definitely throw the book at blacks. You can't deny the sheer numbers of
arrests and jail populations with blacks and minor offenses compared to whites.
Racism does very much exist institutionally in the south. Especially the deep south. I live in SC and it's still a big issue.
But yeah if that big .... can run or dance he is better than the poor white man.
It's still a lot like this where I live. We still get clan matches.
A South politician preaches to the poor white man
“You got more than the blacks, don’t complain.
You’re better than them, you been born with white skin,” they explain.
And the Negro’s name
Is used it is plain
For the politician’s gain
As he rises to fame
And the poor white remains
On the caboose of the train
But it ain’t him to blame
He’s only a pawn in their game
The deputy sheriffs, the soldiers, the governors get paid
And the marshals and cops get the same
But the poor white man’s used in the hands of them all like a tool
He’s taught in his school
From the start by the rule
That the laws are with him
To protect his white skin
To keep up his hate
So he never thinks straight
’Bout the shape that he’s in
But it ain’t him to blame
He’s only a pawn in their game
From the poverty shacks, he looks from the cracks to the tracks
And the hoofbeats pound in his brain
And he’s taught how to walk in a pack
Shoot in the back
With his fist in a clinch
To hang and to lynch
To hide ’neath the hood
To kill with no pain
Like a dog on a chain
He ain’t got no name
But it ain’t him to blame
He’s only a pawn in their game.
