It’s an article of faith among Democrats/socialists/communists (D/s/cs) that minorities, particularly black people, are far more harshly treated by the Criminal Justice System than whites. The “evidence” usually cited for this, apart from “because we say so,” or “experts say,” is disparate impact. If black people are arrested and convicted in greater numbers than their percentage of the population, that’s prima facie evidence of racism and disparate impact. Why else could so many black people become “justice system-involved individuals?”
