Is it prejudice or just because they commit more crimes and more serious crimes?

 

 

"The study found that while African-Americans were arrested at three times their proportion of the population, Latinos made up 23.3 percent of arrestees and whites 61.8 percent.

In the state's district courts, blacks were sentenced to prison 24.9 percent of the time, compared with 16.9 percent of Latinos and 17.7 percent of whites.

Latinos comprise 22.2 percent of Colorado's 5.4 million residents, while non-Hispanic whites make up 69.1 percent, according to the state demographer's office.

The arrests and citations involving blacks were also more frequently for serious offenses such as assault, aggravated assault, homicide, robbery and weapons-related offenses, the report said."

And how does that rate compare to the number of white vs black people jailed for white collar crimes?

The question you meant too ask was, what's the incarceration rate of poor people accused of a crime, vs rate of rich people accused of a crime.

If only a black man could have been president the last eight years and done something to make life better for minorities!

No, we're still dealing with the consequences of ending slavery while not giving a **** about the former slaves.

Yes, eight years with six of it with a hostile , do nothing Congress, will overturn hundreds of years of the worst oppression imaginable. Ya, sure. Throw in another 100 years of Jim Crow for good measure.

No, that still falls under the consequences of slavery
