Re: Roger Goodell, Saints players tour New Orleans' criminal justice system
Now this is just my opinion. but a lot of crimes are committed by people with little to no education that grew up with limited opportunities. Either because their parents didn't prepare them or the school system couldn't make them conform long enough to learn something.
Unfortunately, the white people after slavery tried to keep the black man down by not educating him and trying to force him onto a lesser role in society. Whites and blacks both commit crimes and whoever is the least educated with fewer opportunities will likely result to crime and then have to pay the price. I've been arrested before but I made a good appearance in court with my own attorney that I paid for by hard work while wearing a suit.....not a tank top and pants that I'm holding up with one hand. It paid off and I won, but it wasn't because I was white and had more money than the rest of the defendants in court that day! I was better educated and better prepared to stand before a judge and let the system apply blind justice. Justice isn't blind to disrespectful or angry defendants standing in front of a judge. There are black judges too you know! My judge was a black female! This crap that we don't all get a fair fair shake is slanted!!! |

Re: Roger Goodell, Saints players tour New Orleans' criminal justice system
Congratulations buddy! First child? Got a 4 year old and twin 2 year olds myself. There will be plenty of ups and downs but being a dad is the greatest thing in the world! Feel free to message me if things get stressful and you just need to vent.

And I agree that the sentencing should be the same. But there is no denying in New Orleans that more black people commit crimes, than white people. |

Re: Roger Goodell, Saints players tour New Orleans' criminal justice system
LOL...guy writes a paragraph and all you respond to is how much man love you have for Guido. So no comment on his struggle? Is his struggle different because he is white? Didn't want to touch any of that huh...figures.

Pretty soon jail is going to be outlawed because of its parallels to slavery. |

Re: Roger Goodell, Saints players tour New Orleans' criminal justice system
I’ve spoken to him about his struggle in private. He didn’t say anything that he hasn’t already told me before. Again, shoutout to Guido though.
