Iowa gets it

[War Wagon]

Came across this little article in The KC Star today:

The Associated Press

Des Moines, Iowa - Blacks in America are imprisoned at more than five times the rate of whites, and Hispanics are locked up at nearly double the white rate, says a study released Wednesday by a criminal justice policy group.

The report by The Sentencing Project found states in the Midwest and the Northeast had the greatest black-to-white disparity. Iowa had the widest disparity in the nation, imprisoning blacks at more than 13 times the rate of whites.

Vermont, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Wisconsin incarcerated blacks at more than 10 times the rate of whites, the group said, citing Justice Department statistics from 2005. Vermont had a ratio of 12.5, followed by New Jersey with 12.4, and Connecticut with 12.

States with the lowest black-to-white ratio were Hawaii, with 1.9, Georgia with 3.3, and Mississippi with 3.5.

In Iowa, blacks are imprisoned at a rate more than double the national average. Paul Stageberg, administrator of the Iowa Division of Criminal and Juvenile Justice Planning, said the results were not surprising, but the causes were subject to interpretation.

"the results were not surprising, but the causes were subject to interpretation?!?"

Oh, ok... so let's have some fun interpreting those results, shall we?

To begin with, if you're a nog, stay the fuck away from Iowa. Those corn fed sheep fuckers don't play that homie noise, and they've got plenty of jail space ready to accomodate your niggah ass if you step to da' man.

Rack Iowa.

If Mace is black, and I haven't met him yet, I'd be in for a bit of a surprise, but it wouldn't stop me from buying him a beer or six.

Rip City

No.


And Rack Fu, why? It's kind of hard to believe that War Wagon's article would cut off right there. It's not so hard to believe that 'fuck the pigs' War Wagon would do an about face when someone he doesn't identify with is the victim of those same pigs. Besides, is the biggest news Iowa's 13 times rate, or that the national average is half that?

What are the imprisonments for?

And what's the raw number of blacks in Iowa being imprisoned versus the raw number of whites in Iowa?

[War Wagon]

Besides, is the biggest news Iowa's 13 times rate, or that the national average is half that?

psst... It's not news. The numbers speak for themselves, and like the Ioway admin dude said, it's no surprise. That's funny, btw... wait, you didn't get the humor. That's no surprise either.

We're just left with interpreting the causes here...

War Wagon... why isn't it a surprise? What's happening in Iowa that isn't happening in Georgia and Mississippi, of all states? Is it about crime, or about populations? or both?

[Ang]

I've been to Iowa a couple of times, and never saw any black people there. Guess I know now where they all were.

What's happening in Iowa that isn't happening in Georgia and Mississippi, of all states?

Please. Georgia is about to execute Troy Anthony Davis. Georgia is also the state which is having a bipolar reaction to continued imprisonment of Genarlow Wilson... and over 100 others in his same predicament.

http://www.ajc.com/metro/content/metro/ ... 6_web.html

I speak on behalf of Mr. Troy Anthony Davis, a man who has been incarcerated for 15 years and is on death row due to his conviction in the murder of a Savannah police officer. Even though seven of the nine witnesses who testified in the Davis case have since recanted their testimony saying that they were threatened and coerced by the police, Davis has never been granted an appeal to allow the courts to hear new evidence in his case......

I do not know if he is guilty of the charges of which he has been convicted. But I do know that nobody should be put to death based on the evidence we now have in this case.

Evidence that is dramatically different from what the jury heard. Evidence that I understand no court has ever considered, for technical reasons that have nothing to do with the truth.

We sometimes hear that a guilty person has gone free because of some legal technicality, and we understandably feel frustrated when that happens. Now we have the opposite situation. A man who may well be innocent may die tomorrow — all because of those technicalities. This is much more than frustrating; it is tragic. It is unjust. And at a time when we are trying to convince the whole world that our way is best, it does not speak well of us. I will say only a little about the facts of the case, because you have other witnesses that know them better than I.

But here is what I understand to be true. I understand that there is no physical evidence. No murder weapon. No fingerprints. No DNA.

Just the testimony of a few frightened and confused people who were taken completely by surprise when a tragedy suddenly erupted — without warning — for just a few seconds — in the middle of the night. And now, the case against Mr. Davis, that rested on that testimony, is a shambles. I understand that there were nine key witnesses, seven of whom have recanted their testimony. The eighth witness has left the state and refuses to talk about the case. And the ninth cannot recant without confessing that he committed the murder. Indeed, some of the other recanting witnesses have now implicated him.....

I guess I'm the only one catching the Charles Stuart and Susan Smith vapors here? You were a cop, how often was 'catch the right perp' morphed into 'convict any perp'? Folks talk about stereotypes against blacks.......... but prosecutors also have a stereotype. See also Nifong (and yes, he is relevant). See also the monstrosity that is the Atlanta Child Murders.

But anyway, this is GEORGIA; and even GEORGIA has a rate that's 3.3 versus Iowa's 13. Georgia's rate, on top of even that, is less than half of the national rate!

GEORGIA.

What's happening in Iowa? It's gotta be something related to what Ang is talking about, population. Perhaps with the type of crimes one can be imprisoned for in Iowa. But something is going down, and it may not at all be what War Wagon is implying, that's what the dude is talking about 'open to interpretation.'

BWAHAHAHAHAHA. Ang, that very well might be one of the most subtle and humorous things you've ever said in here. Thanks for the sig.

That wasn't even near her best effort.

Ask Bri and his one time sig about that.

When I was 6-7 years old, I lived for a year in Cedar Falls. They used to bus in blek kids from Waterloo. They were the first blek kids I had any interaction with - and really the last until I moved to Richmond Virginia when I was 22.

The blek kids taught me this rhyme:

Boy your mama pretty
she got meatball on her titty
she got ham and egg
between her leg
boy your mama pretty.

I took her to a party
she turn around an farted
I took her to the city
she turn around an shitted.

That's all I remember now, but it went on forever and ever, verse after brilliant verse.

Also, at that time, "Le Freak" by Chic was very popular. All the blek kids sang it incessantly, and equated "freak" with "fuck"...so basically, here was a song that zoomed up the charts that was openly about fucking, so we thought. Wikipedia has a good story on that song.

Abraham Lincoln was the king of the jews
wiped his butt with the daily news
walk downstairs with his dick in his hand

The version I heard (and repeated) was:

Abraham Lincoln was a fine old man
jumped out a window with his dick in his hand
he said, "Pardon me, Miss, just doing my duty;
So stick out your ass and give me some booty"

If you like cheese

I don't see the big deal. All of these are double-dutch,
regular jump rope, hoop skipping (y'all dudes won't remember
that, but the chicks here do, maybe) and hand jive rhymes.

I don't think boys did hand jive rhymes though. You kept going
with the elaborate patty cake hand slapping, faster and faster,
until someone fucked up. I don't know what the real name of those
games are.

One of the other games was basically Soul Train dancing down the line
for the playground set. Everybody would line up, left and right, and then
everybody would take turns one at a time posing, preening and basically
dancing down the make-believe runway/soul train line/gauntlet. Madonna's
a thief. So are gays. ha.

ooooo, ahhhh (said very punctuated)
look at that girl/that boy/(person's name)? (sang)

This controversial routine on HBO's "Bring The Pain," made Rock a star back in 1996: "There’s, like, a civil war going on with black people, and there’s two sides. There’s black people, and there’s n...iggers. And n...iggers have to go."

Why does he think it got so much attention?

"I think a lot of people were thinking in those terms and hadn’t been able to say it. By the way, I’ve never done that joke again, ever, and I probably never will," says Rock. "‘Cause some people that were racist thought they had license to say n...igger. So, I’m done with that routine."

Exactly.

Meanwhile, the same folk ain't going around repeating 'N..iggas are scared of the revolution' word for word, are they?

And you wonder why you're glossed "Whitey"?

[RevLimiter]

I thought he was a Whitey Ford fan.

I thought he was a Whitey Ford fan.

but then he really might know what it's like.....

[RevLimiter]

DenseHole going to the "Holier Than Thou" card....laughable to say the least and not too "brilliant".

[Dinsdale]

not too "brilliant".

Uhm... thinking overall population has any æffect on a ratio is what's "not too brilliant."


And if whites outnumber blacks 6 to 1, or thereabouts(very rough ballpark), and are imprisoned at 5 times the rate of whites, can this classroom of genius calculate the ratio of blacks commiting crimes(or getting caught for them) to whites?


That's a staggering fucking number, actually.

[Dinsdale]

Yep, I gotta agree......there's some real stupid folks in here.

Like some of the stupid bastards who somehow managed to get happy with the CRTL-V-C keys while typing a simple "Sin" reset.


You're too quick for me.

[Dan Vogel]

There is no reason to celebrate African Americans being jailed at a rate 13 times that of white people. There is no reason to mock it or make light of it either. Only hateful or really unwise people whould do that. Dr King dedicated his life for the advancement of his people and yet still in 2007 we see statistics like this. Instead of laughing and celebrating because it is happening to black people you should be studying the messages of Dr King and thinking of ways that you can make a difference. This number just points out the failure of our society, not the failure of a given group of people. Be good enough to think for yourself.

[War Wagon]

This number just points out the failure of our society, not the failure of a given group of people.

I just threw up in my mouf.

So, what you're saying is that niggahs aren't responsible for their personal, individual behavior, but that society as a whole is? You're right in a way, I guess. It's societys responsibility to lock them up when they repeatedly break the law, and I'd say that Iowa is doing a damn fine job of it.

But look on the bright side. All the nogs locked up in prisons around the country can console themselves that it really wasn't their fault as they serve out their sentences. They'll know that they have an advocate in a cum swiller like yourself, and that hard time will just fly right bye.

No, I think he's saying that if there's a failing in the black community in regards to crime, there's a greater problem in your
society, and that problem should be addressed. How you tackle the problem is debatable, but to say blacks are genetically
predisposed to criminal behavior blows the door wide open to race based persecution.

You're justifying the Nazis.

[Shlomart Ben Yisrael]

You're truly fucked in the head.

For real. Homie (ese?) must be drunk to be posting shit like that in the middle of a Saturday afternoon.

And Dan Vogel, hi. Welcome back.

[Risa]

For real. Homie (ese?) must be drunk to be posting shit like that in the middle of a Saturday afternoon.

Yeah...It must be that Saturday afternoon libation talking. Completely out of character comments from Mvscal.

It's Saturday. He's got kids. It's Cali.

Who wouldn't rather be at the beach?

I've been to Iowa a couple of times, and never saw any black people there. Guess I know now where they all were.

I went to a wedding in Des Moines several years back. There are LOTS of coons in that city. Lots. I was surprised myself to see it. Even a couple of bad, urban areas to boot.

From what people tell me, there are also a number of black people in Ames beyond those who are playing some kind of sport for ISU.

[RevLimiter]

to say blacks are genetically
predisposed to criminal behavior blows the door wide open to race based persecution.

The numbers don't lie.

It's about time to get busy and do it. N...iggers are subhuman scum everywhere they're found. Rwanda, Baltimore, Congo or the Big Sleazy it's all the same.

It is time for the Final Solution to the n...igger question.

Wow....just, WOW.

War Wagon, you are probably a bright man. Have you ever used one of those box tools to view an solar eclipse? It has a small hole and you narrow your focus to look only through that hole. This is how you are viewing this situation. Broaden your view and you can see a better and realistic picture of things. Don't get racial. It's not a way to present yourself to have others respect you. If you want respect you speak respectfully.

All peoples need to have reasonable education, economic, and general living conditions. When a "group" of people don't have those things then statistics can fool you. Don't be fooled. You may be better than that.
