And the reason why blacks have a disproportionate problem with the law is because of liberal do-gooders & unionists.
In 1950 , 17% of black american children lived in single mother homes.
In 2010 , 50% of black american children lived in single mother homes..
In 1965 , only 8% of childbirths in black communities occured out of wedlock
Today, it's 72%.
In 1950, married black american women living with their spouse was 53%
In 2010 , that number dropped to 25%
Why is this a problem ? Because:
Black single mother households with children under 18 have the highest poverty rate at 47.5% , compared to only 8.4% of married black american families.
Why is it a problem ? Well , children from single-mother households are more likely to commit crimes because they'll generally remain trapped in poverty.
+ a lack of a male role model or authority figure.
+ lack of a dual-income.
"In 1930, black unemployment was lower than that of whites. Unfortunately, the passage of Depression-era laws that empowered labor unions, and the increase of the minimum wage, had the effect of (a) shutting blacks out of many jobs due to union rules, and (b) raising wages so high that blacks were priced out of the labor market. This had the effect of driving black unemployment up."

Of course , it's not the only reason...but one of the many reasons..
And blaming it on "racism" alone is too convenient.
