  1. +senko ukura " your going to have to be more specific then that. I find it hard to believe that a guy was for all of the following before it was cool to do so would hate his own race:ending segregation, gay rights, transgender rights, ending political corruption, ect." Bernie did that for political gain. He created groups of "oppressed" people and wanted to make them dependent on the government. He still does it by saying fact-less statements. For example he says 1. women are paid less than men which is not true 2. black are attacked by cops when more white people were shot by cops 3. he targets the rich and makes them look evil Bernie is a career politician and acts like it.

  2. +waleuska You are telling me to look it up when you can just provide it for me. The fact that you are telling me to look it up shows you are hiding something.

  3. +waleuska I will have to see a source for that. Are you considering the same state, judge and crime?

  4. +waleuska Schools are vastly different than courts. Also, are they repeat offenders? Certain students are targeted because they have a track record, and it doesn't matter what your race is. This is not supporting your case at all.

  5. +waleuska You are not making direct comparisons. Say a white man gets a DUI in Missouri, it is a misdemeanor. Now if a black man gets on in Iowa it is a felony. By your logic it is because the guy in Iowa is black, not because of a difference in law. You are making an asinine claim here.

  6. +waleuska When you manipulate data you can easily make something look the way you want. Statistically whites are more likely to be shot than blacks. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2015/apr/21/police-kill-more-whites-than-blacks-but-minority-d/?page=all So even if what you are saying is true blacks have it better. They get thrown in jail, white people get shot.

  7. +waleuska I guess you did not read the article. "Now, we were talking about blacks going to jail for the same crimes as white " And in the same state? Same county? Same judge? There are other variables involved as well as I showed you with the DUI example.

  8. +waleuska On Garnder, he was not obeying the law. All he had to do was follow the cops' orders and deal with the problem in court.

  9. +Jeremy Hale I didn't pick a poor example. It was to show that laws are different in every state. Your comment is one big mess, but seeing that you say "living wage" which is one of the most ignorant statements one can make, it is clear you lack intellectual ability to discuss a topic like this.

  10. +Jeremy Hale "Living wage" has never been used in any peer reviewed, close journal as far as I know. Even at that, all a "living wage" means, at most, is the wage someone needs to live. I do question the MIT numbers because I ran through them an found that one could live off of less then what they report. I also found that their numbers are not correct. For example, gas is 80 cents cheaper in my hometown compared to the city I live in now, but they list transportation to be higher. Also, with "living wage" you can't base any economic policy off of it. You will probably push for a higher min. wage but all that does is enforce how much is paid per hour, not per week. If someone is earning $50/hr but only working 5 hours a week are they earning a "living wage"? The "living wage" is subjective and in reality means nothing. Now onto sentencing. You are leaving out so much information here. Were they repeat offenders? How did they dress in court? Have you even been in court? Some people dress up nice and thus get a lighter sentence. Others don't. How did they act in court? Did they have the same judge? Same lawyer? You are removing every other variable and saying "well one person is black, one person is white....clearly they are racist in the courts". I mentioned nothing in the middle because of one simple thing, lack of paragraphs. Reading your comment was a pain and I don't have much time to work with someone that can't break up paragraphs. I am not a person who criticizes grammar or spelling on comments, but I do ask that you present you comment in a more organized manner.

  11. +Jeremy Hale What you wear in court means a lot. Someone comes in dressed nicely then they are putting forth effort to improve. Someone who does not clearly does not care. Everyone should have at least one set of nice clothes. And it does not have to be a suit and tie, slacks and a polo is enough. Looking the part is important. The "living wage" is subjective. I don't drive to work, I am healthy, I don't need to eat much, I live in an upstairs apartment thus can keep my windows open in the summer. My expenses are low. I know of three guys that live together in a studio, their expenses are low. How you are measuring the "living wage"? I saw the MIT site, it does not get into detail on that which is why no on references it beyond a youtube comment. Also you are caught in the fallacy of just looking at money. There are other factors as well. Overall cost is one. Why are home prices and healthcare prices going up? What is funny is that they are areas the federal government has strong ties to. I don't have a bias. We have such a powerful media these days that if racism really existed then it would be exposed. All I see are cherry picked numbers and hand wavy stats. .You are pointing to Freidman, Wolfe and Chomsky who are some of the most bias individuals out there. Freidman proposed a healthcare law that had zero effect on him. How am I to take him serious? Chomsky is a career writer with no other experience. I don't trust in what he says. The "living wage" is subjective. There is no way you can support it not being. I was earning $5.15/hr once. I was not poor because I was living with my parents. My ex-girlfriend, when she lived with me, earned $8/hr and was paying for a $10,000 car. The "living wage" is purely, 100% subjective. I am all for improving the strength of the dollar, but in order to do that we have to get the most of our resources. Someone like Freidman and Wolfe don't understand that.

  12. Why would he debate Bernie? He is focused on winning the primaries. You take care of the current issue at hand and then cross the next bridge when it gets there.

  13. +Daniel Ospitia Why debate him? Win the primaries first and debate him if Bernie wins.

  14. +GTOberfest My professor today said that when someone asks a question you only give the answer and no more extra info. So if the answer is yes or no then you answer yes or no. The same concept is with this debate. Worry about the primaries, why debate Bernie unless you really have to?
