Welfare has been a huge failure, with 50% of the population in jail black and being only 11% of the US population.

So, I’m wondering why you never comment on the articles about white people doing stupid or reprehensible things. Like the white murderer? Or the white child molester? Or the white drunk driver? Or the white burglar?

Why no comments on those?
