Holy crap. Still not getting it. If whites had the same POV and history of blacks you would understand how wrong that is.
Would Wilson feel the same if the prosecutor were black and the Grand Jury only had 3 whites on it and he got indicted?
Selection bias and sample rate error. Once again this is not about one case. This is about both intentional and unintentional ignorance of history and conditions.
And we are not talking about the totality of the county. Same stupid logic when people don't see rain when the weatherman says "scattered thunderstorms".
This happened in Ferguson, not the rest of the county. I myself live in a extremely huge county but I do not take where I live as the totality of that county.
By virtue of that ignorant statement you made, you do not understand the simple concept of protection of dissent and separation of powers. If all that is constituted to equal morality was the rule of the 70% we would not need a secular government at all. We could just have mob rule.
