Those stats are shocking.
Cons will say its a black/mexican folk problem.
Libs will say too many laws overly target minorities. 
Maybe its just systemic to our culture...maybe it cannot be solved either way.

Here is the GOAT.....Chappelle's take - funny skit.

Speaking of which....you know all those African Nations we hand billions to every year...?
Why can't they be expected to earn it and take a couple million of our worst criminals off our hands...?

Respectfully sir....as an empire, we hand them billions to control corrupt leaders
so that West CORPS can exploit their resources.

Neither you, I, or the African people benefit from the empire. Niger is finally waking up to this scheme.

You really think WASH DC gives them billions out of the goodness of their hearts?

If we maimed and killed more of them, the numbers would go down to match some other countries.
Please seat yourself.

Diversity weakens all societies.
The Black Tribe cannot be happy under White man rule.
The White Tribe cannot be happy under black man rule.

Here is the solution--
"Voluntary separation".                             
:)

Same deal in the Ukraine War.
World Peace can be had......if we all play our cards right.

cheap labor is a driving force 

even the MIC uses it

Were it not for this captive labor force, the military could hardly meet needs ranging from weapons production and apparel manufacture to transportation servicing and communications infrastructure. US soldiers are well-equipped with guns to fire, clothes to wear, vehicles to drive, radios to call and maps to help them navigate, thanks in large measure to the 21,000 prisoners working for Federal Prison Industries (FPI), a quasi-public, for-profit corporation run by the Bureau of Prisons. In 2002, the company sold $678.7 million worth of goods and services to the U.S. government, over $400 million of which went to the Department of Defense. 

https://www.prisonlegalnews.org/news/20 ... r-machine/

Prison labor in the United States is referred to as insourcing. Under the Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC), employers receive a tax credit of $2,400 for every work-release inmate they employ as a reward for hiring “risky target groups.”The workers are not only cheap labor, but they are considered easier to control. They also?tend to be African-American males. Companies are free to avoid providing benefits like health insurance or sick days. They also don’t need to worry about unions, demands for vacation time, raises or family issues.According to the Left Business Observer, “the federal prison industry produces 100 percent of all military helmets, war supplies and other equipment. The workers supply 98 percent of the entire market for equipment assembly services; 93 percent of paints and paintbrushes; 92 percent of stove assembly; 46 percent of body armor; 36 percent of home appliances; 30 percent of headphones/microphones/speakers; and 21 percent of office furniture. Airplane parts, medical supplies and much more: prisoners are even raising seeing-eye dogs for blind people.”With all of that productivity, the inmates make about 90 cents to $4 a day.Here are some of the biggest corporations to use such practices, but there are hundreds more:
  • McDonald's. McDonald's uses inmates to produce frozen foods. ... 
  • Wal-Mart. The company uses inmates for manufacturing purposes. ... 
  • Starbucks. The company uses inmates to cut costs as well. ... 
  • Sprint. ... 
  • Verizon. ... 
  • Victoria's Secret. ... 
  • Fidelity Investments. ... 
  • J.C Penney and Kmart.

the price of freedom is forever vigilance.........or whatever.
People are free to do what they want........problem is Demonrats teach the people they are suppressed and no respect for law.
So, they wind up in jail....punishment for crimes against other people

I wonder what our founding fathers would think about what America has turned into. Would they have really wanted America to be the world police?
