30 years for stealing a doughnut

He's lucky he wasn't shot.

Maybe he's white that would explain it
but he must be Black, Hispanic or Redneck who are much more likely to commit crimes than everybody else 

[Calandale]

Redneck!

[Parts]

In the United States you have a lot of Blacks, Hispanics and Rednecks who are much more likely to commit crimes than everybody else.

Nobody has anything to say about this statement or do you assume it's true

It probably is. At least low end crimes.

Do you cross the street when you see them coming your way?

In general? No. Then again, people do tend to
cross the street when they see me coming. 

I'm just saying that there's a correlation between poverty
and certain kinds of crimes. And the given groups are
lower on the socio-economic scale, overall. No big surprise.

They cross the street from me too   Which is probably why I am sensitive about it.  I agree it has more to do with social status than anything else but the way it was said just rubs me wrong

It bugged me too, but I knew that one could
bring statistics up to show 'twas true. Didn't want
to lose a fight.

I don't mind loosing a fight as long as it was for something I believe in.

[Calandale]

I do. Hurts my image, which is unimportant.
BUT, it also hurts the idea itself, in others'
view. I'd rather not expose something to
weakness, if I can't defend it well. Sadly,
with my inability to make myself clear here,
I seem to do just that, too often.

[Parts]

I'm just a stubborn son of a bitch

[Calandale]

Me too. But, I don't like to do more
harm than good. And my mom
is a certified bitch.

[Scrapheap]

The big question is...........


was it a glazed doughnut??

The more I thought about I believe the statistics can be deceiving.  The problem being that the people being represented being poor don't have access to very good legal representation and mostly rely on public defenders while the people with money can get much better.   

[Calandale]

Sure. But, the very KIND of crime is an important
point. Why shoplift, if you have money? Sure, some
do it for the thrill or something (for me, 'twas honor),
but it's different.

Same with B&E.
