You guys have a lot of strange misconceptions about the American justice system. A lot of black men go to jail, but a lot of black men also committ crimes. What are we suppose to do, not arrest them because they are black?

there is a lot of evidence that blacks are treated much harsher by the justice system than whites.

I believe there is similar evidence that blacks also recieve longer sentences for similar crimes, but i don't have any links or resources to back that up right now.
