White Americans do the same crime and get less or not time
 

Judge Mathis Weighs In On The Execution Of Troy Davis!


Georgia, Really Tho? The Same Parole Board That Killed Troy Davis Gave Clemency To A White Male

Fight the power

I don't know the circumstances in either case and I am betting you don't either. One would need to know the circumstances before making a decision. Not everything is racially motivated. You people need to get over it already.

I'm sure both cases were absolutely identical except for skin color.

Bringing people together seems a better option then dividing us by our differences :2 cents:

Now hold on their my good man, don't forget that its the white folks who pay more taxes to fund the prisons to put the coloreds in, and I might add they do get three square meals a day!*








*please god bring back the Chapelle show

You cant bring people together, if you out to destroy them.
Black Americans get more time for the same crime as white, that is a fact.
Georgia should be the last state to hurt any black people for all the wrong they did in the past.
Like 4 times a year Dna testing have proven blacks didnt do the crime.

no doubt

I figure after 15 or 20 years of appeals and you have not been able to convince anyone of your innocence then it will probably never happen.

And just because witnesses recanted their testimony is not a surprise after about 5 years I would probably say I'm not so sure what I saw either.
I would hope they had more then eyewitness testimony to convict if not then thats a problem.

2 of the 5 members of the board are black by the way. Let me guess, they're sellouts?

You mean like OJ Simpson?

" The parole board in the state of Georgia spared a convicted killer from execution hours before he was due to die by lethal injection on Thursday and commuted his sentence to life in prison. The Georgia Board of Pardons and Paroles made its decision less than three hours before Samuel David Crowe, 47, was to be executed, according to a spokeswoman for the state's prisons. "After careful and exhaustive consideration of the requests, the board voted to grant clemency. The board voted to commute the sentence to life without parole," the parole board said. Crowe's death would have marked the third execution since the U.S. Supreme Court lifted an unofficial moratorium on the death penalty last month. Crowe was not present at the parole board hearing in Atlanta. He had already eaten his last meal and was preparing to enter the execution chamber at the prison in Jackson, Georgia, Mallie McCord of the Georgia Department of Corrections said. In March 1988, Crowe killed store manager Joseph Pala during a robbery at the lumber company in Douglas County, west of Atlanta. Crowe, who had previously worked at the store, shot Pala three times with a pistol, beat him with a crowbar and a pot of paint. Crowe pleaded guilty to armed robbery and murder and was sentenced to death the following year. "David (Crowe) takes full responsibility for his crime and experiences profound remorse," according to Georgians for Alternatives to the Death Penalty, an advocacy group, who welcomed the board's decision. At Thursday's hearing, his lawyers presented a dossier of evidence attesting to his remorse and good behavior in jail, according to local media reports. The lawyers also said he was suffering from withdrawal symptoms from a cocaine addiction at the time of the crime. The U.S. Supreme Court on April 16 rejected a challenge to the three-drug cocktail used in most U.S. executions, which opponents claimed inflicted unnecessary pain. Georgia then conducted an execution on May 5. Georgia has executed 41 men since the Supreme Court reinstated the death penalty in 1973 and this week it had 109 prisoners on death row." - Reuters

fact: federal sentencing guidelines. more facts: no one is alive in Georgia from 1865 and before. another fact: racist, someone primarily concerned with race :2 cents:

Fact: More blacks do more time for the same crime as whites. Right the fuck now

these two cases were very different..

troy davis was guilty and thats a fact...

i'm glad al sharpton got all the baboons riled up because it just shows that blacks will claim racism without even spending the time to learn the facts..

you dont like it here? then go live somewhere where there is no racism...

maybe antarctica...

Equality in the justice system? Next you'll be wanting a black president.

.

The National Institute of Drug Abuse estimated that while 12 percent of drug
users are black, they make up nearly 50 percent of all drug possession
arrests in the U.S. (The Black and White of Justice, Freedom Magazine, Volume 128)
According to the National Drug Strategy Network, although African Americans
make up less than one-third of the population in Georgia, the black arrest
rate for drugs is five times greater than the white arrest rate. In addition,
since 1990, African Americans have accounted for more than 75% of persons
incarcerated for drug offenses in Georgia and make up 97.7% of the people in
that state who are given life sentences for drug offenses.

In six California counties independently surveyed in 1995, 100% of those
individuals sent to trial on drug charges were minorities, while the
drug-using population in those same counties was more than 60% white. (The
Black and White of Justice, Freedom Magazine, Volume 128)
A CNN article in 1996 sited U.S. government figures that show more than 90
percent of all federal prosecutions for crack cocaine in 1995 were of African
American defendants. In addition, unlike convictions for powered cocaine and
other drugs (which wealthy, Caucasian defendants are more likely to use), a
conviction for selling crack cocaine can carry a lengthy prison term without
benefit of parole.

Texas executed white guy on the same day as Georgia did with Davis. Did you hear anyone bitching about it? No !

Bullshit. But blacks are 5 times more likely to commit crime. And thats a fact.

I only spent a few minutes glancing over the details of each case, and, along with what was mentioned regarding Troy Davis in ShelleyCrash's thread, it seems as though:

Crowe killed one person, and has since expressed deep regret and remorse.

Davis killed multiple people (the off duty cop, someone else earlier in the night that he admitted to killing). Having one murder conviction is going to affect sentencing dramatically compared to someone who does not have a previous murder conviction.
That falls into the federal sentencing guidlelines BM Bradley mentioned.

The problem with this complaint, Pastor, is that the cases are not the same, therefore the two criminals cannot be compared. Compare Davis' plight to someone who had a previous murder conviction.

Previous convictions are supposed to not be mentioned while on trial for a crime. They are however relevant when sentencing. (I think)

.

Yeah, I'm almost 100% they affect sentencing. Which is why I mentioned that other murder conviction as related to BM Bradley's mentioning of federal sentencing guidelines.


Edit: previous convictions do impact sentencing:

White Americans do the same crime and get less or not time.

the guy who was to be executed admitted to the killing, which was horrific

pays to have a well connected family i suppose

Based on these two videos you posted here you can NOT compare them.. There is ZERO information about why the other was granted.

black people also typically have more priors too.

Black men are mostly arrested for non-violent crimes such as drugs crimes, not for crimes like mass murders, serial killing, white collar crime.
Also, black men serve more time in jail than a white men even when they commited the same crime.

And it is also base on racism:
" U.S. studies showed that blacks were commonly sent to prison at higher rates and for longer prison terms than whites for the same crimes."

"Over half of those sentenced for drug offenses were black in 1998, even though 70% of drug users are white"

"Blacks were much more likely to be sent to prison than placed on probation"
Jack this

You keep saying that, yet the example you gave didn't prove it, nor are you acknowleding that fact. Kind of reminds me of when SallyRand gets called out on something, and he/she/it posts the exact same thing five more times in the same thread.

Typical ignorant black American.

PRove to me that black get equal time for the same crime?
But we for sure do more time for the same crime

Yes they do. But let me explain why. It is not because they are more violent than white men. It is because of the sentencing guidelines which are setup by white men which allow judges to have a heyday on whom they will. The United States only makes up 5% of the world population but has the world's largest prison system. Even larger than that of China. Black men only make up 6% of the US population but make up over 45% of the prison population. Asians and Hispanics make up about 25% of the prison population combined. White men make up about only 30% and this is mostly poor whites. Looking at the statistics one would think that black men are more criminal when they are no more criminal than any other race of men. The reason they out number all other race of men in prison is because they get horrendously long sentences for non-violent crimes. Black men are in prison for drug charges more than any other crime. Being a pedophile is a terrible crime. 80% of the males who commit this horrendous act are white. Though this is perceived to be an act of violence against a child, white men receive far less time than a black male who got caught smoking crack or got caught selling 10 rocks of crack cocaine. Google and see for yourself.

+ It is very unfortunate, that there is no outcry among African Americans for what is going on. I personally know of men who smoked marijuana at one time but stopped...but because they associated at one time or another with someone who did, they are serving 15 to 20 years in prison. Judges are able to do this through what is called "Conspiracy Charges". When you get a conspiracy charge, they (the feds) collect as much marijuana or cocaine as they can and charge each person they've arrested with that exact amount of drugs. It does not matter whether you personally ever even saw the marijuana or not. You are charged and sentenced as though you personally sold it. This action is legal because whites have made it legal, thus making it possible to imprison a huge number of black men for long periods of time and not one family member can do anything about it.
+
+ Is it just? No, but then the Justice System has a horrendous history of allowing lynchings and rapes against blacks to go on in America without one arrest. So it is no wonder that it continues to be unjust in it's sentencing of blacks today.

Black man kills a dog gets life
White man plays with kids booty gets out in 12 months?

Bullshit. Prove it.

Fuck off, will you? And please dont tell me its crackers killing black folks in da hood.

Im sure you know better.

I must have missed when Michael Vick received his life sentence. I could have sworn he was the starting QB for my favorite NFL team.

Generally speaking, any man plays with kids booty gets his ass maimed in prison, and most likely comes out in a body bag.

Even more incentive for "non whites" to be law abiding citizens. What's the problem?

Whitey will typically pay for an attorney.

Darkey will go with the public defender.

While I am sure this is not an absolute, but I would say it's true more times than not in whatever example you're citing. Hence O.J.. If you pay for legal representation, you tend to buy yourself a better brand of "justice". This is how the system works.

It's not about race. It's about socio-economic class. Welcome to the U.S.A..
:2 cents:

The author of this article attempts to deceive the reader by a lie of omission. He failed to mention that the $100 bank robber was convicted of first degree robbery. During the robbery he held his hand under his jacket to insinuate he had a gun, which makes it an armed robbery !

Happens here in the UK too....

Because judges and juries know that white people are superior

very true..

a friend of my families just spent $150,000 to defend his son who killed a woman while drunk driving.. she had just got engaged and fiance and his friend were in the front seat and she was in the back seat with no seat belt.. the kid rear ended them causing their car to flip and the girl was ejected and died at the scene..

his son got 1 year in county jail and 2 years house arrest and 5 years probabtion and thats it.. he was 2.5 times legal limit and speeding..

if that was my fiance and her killer got off like that, i would kill that kid myself..

but on the flip side, would i do everything in my power to keep my kid out of jail?
