Criminal justice

Wickham notes that blacks are 29% of those arrested, whites 70% of those arrested, but that more blacks are inmates.

As long as Wickham isn't being more specific about the statistics, such as mentioning which types of crimes lead to blacks being more likely to be inmates, I'll do the same:

I know the point they focused on is that it is unfair that blacks are more likely to be in jail, but since most crimes are intraracial, wouldn't that mean that white victims are more likely to have their victimizers on the loose, and that black victims are more likely to have their victimizers put in jail for a longer period of time?

Is the SOTU over?

Some people asked me if I watched President Biden’s State of the Union. Haha! I have seen enough of them. Not just Biden’s SOTU, but SOTUs by US presidents! Back in 1999, I not only watched President Clinton’s SOTU, but the Cato Institute gave me the task of keeping track of all of President Clinton’s proposals and promises. Since then I have watched few SOTUs, once as a blogger at the invitation of National Public Radio. https://tinyurl.com/3dv5y452

So, yes, there is a good reason for these kids to get a quality education. Some of the school choice movement's greatest advocates and political leaders (Virginia Walden Ford, Howard Fuller, Kevin Chavous , Rep. Boehner, former education secretary Spellings, and DC Mayor for Life Marion Barry!) were there yesterday. This group was organized...I wasn't looking, but I bet they walked off the bus in 2s. * * * I had my group line up against the wall. They had a tough teacher with them, believe me, I was saving them by taking control. That was a no-nonsense lady. She wasn't even interested in small talk with me as we w
