      I am white but not very wealthy. But in this case that doesn’t make much of a difference. If its so obvious they planted evidence that the entire world already knows about it, you will come out on top regardless of race.

          I definitely don’t envy your unfounded cynisism. The justice system is biased against black people, but when the planting of evidence is already proven to that extent, there isn’t anything they can do.

          Its not like you just automatically go to prison if you’re black. You still get a trial, and if you have a case that good you’ll be fine.

            You still get a trial

            You willing to wait 3 years in jail for that? If you survive?

            You know what, this conversation isn’t worth it. Next you’ll go, “ah but you have a right to a speedy trial” and I’ll tell you the real world examples of that not happening and you’ll keep saying “they’re not allowed to do that” and I’ll keep saying “they do it anyway, and get away with it” ad infinium, for every level. You’re just fucking naive and privileged. You’ve clearly never seen someone get railroaded by the system and that fucking sucks, because the logical conclusion of your line of thought is “since it’s so magically easy to not have the cops railroad you, it must not be happening” which leads to “therefore everyone fucked over by cops must have deserved it”.

            It’s frustrating. You refuse to see the way the world works and it makes you a worse person.
