Early Data Shows Black People Are Being Disproportionally Arrested for Social Distancing Violations

https://www.propublica.org/article/in-some-of-ohios-most-populous-areas-black-people-were-at-least-4-times-as-likely-to-be-charged-with-stay-at-home-violations-as-whites

 

Crowds of mostly white protesters have defied Ohio’s stay-at-home order without arrest, while in several of the state’s biggest jurisdictions, police departments have primarily arrested black people for violating the order.

Amazing how there never seems to be any videos of white people hanging out and the cops confronting them. They must be chilling in their mom's basement posting videos of black people being no good.........

They are being arrested for their own good......the covid virus is racist on its own and has been claiming many more lives of black folks than whites.

Good point.  One could say blacks are being  saved  at a much higher rate than whites.

Obviously everyone has so far deliberately missed the lesson here.

All laws, no matter how arbitrary, will always be enforced more upon the poor and poc than anyone else. 

This has always been the case since there has been police and the poor.
