I think it has to do with perceptions and beliefs on the part of prosecutors and judges about the dangerousness of African-Americans relative to other races.Dual Income No Kidshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04648586816512955888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26277603.post-7631325057542936652008-04-25T08:19:00.000-05:002008-04-25T08:19:00.000-05:00Cripes, three years in jail for tax offences?<BR/><BR/>We stopped jailing people for stuff like that in the 1860s in the UK! Why not just fine him and have it benefit the US tax coffers instead of drain it by him being in jail?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
