The CDC estimates that 4-8 percent of pregnant women in the U.S. are abused by an intimate partner.
When Laci Peterson became the symbol of maternal homicide in the mass media and in the law books (the Violence Against Unborn Children Act is also known as the Laci and Connor's Law), it put a white face on the horrendous crime of maternal homicide. In reality, that face is actually young, and often, black.
Reality has been further complicated lately with two more high-profile cases of white pregnant women being killed by their boyfriends: Maria Lauterbach, a pregnant Marine whose body was found alongside her fetus' charred remains; and the guilty verdict against Bobby Cutts, a former Ohio police officer convicted of killing his pregnant girlfriend and disposing of her body in the woods. Both stories dominated the airwaves earlier this year.
Lauterbach's accused killer, also a Marine, was captured Thursday in Mexico after a three-month manhunt.
Left behind in much of the media attention is a slew of similar cases involving black women. The CDC estimates that 4-8 percent of pregnant women in the U.S. are abused by an... more

As a result of the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1986, Congress established different mandatory penalties for cocaine and crack cocaine, with significantly higher punishments for crack cocaine offenses. There is a 5-year minimum prison penalty for a first-time trafficking offense involving 5 grams or more of crack cocaine or 500 grams or more of powder cocaine (see top chart above) and a 10-year mandatory minimum penalty for a first-time trafficking offense involving 50 grams or more of crack cocaine or 5,000 grams or more of powder cocaine.
One gram of pure powder cocaine will convert to approximately 0.89 grams of crack cocaine
Historically, the majority of crack cocaine OFFENDERS are black; powder cocaine OFFENDERS are now predominantly Hispanic. ***In spite of the fact that White and Hispanic Americans make up 66% of the people that USE crack????????*******
If this is not subliminal at it's best!
In 2006, African-Americans accounted for 82 percent of crack cocaine-related arrests, while white and Hispanic offenders accounted for 72 percent of powder cocaine-related arrests
Bottom Line:
1. Members of Congress might need some remedial math, especially on decimals? If 1 gram of powder cocaine = .89 grams of crack cocaine, why is the amount of crack cocaine for five years of jail time (5 grams) 100X less than for powder cocaine (500 grams)?
2. Nobel economist Milton Friedman once called the minimum wage "the most anti-black law on the books." For once I have to disagree with Milton, I think the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1986 is now the most anti-black law on the books.

If we ignore this, it most certainly, won't go away. Ever astounded at the desire to make indifferent the dehumanizing jibes/slights that many make, I had to post this when I came across it. Here, we have a young man (not unlike our presidential encumbent) of mixed race who (it appears) is willing to overlook this incident in the name of friendship. (go to link above for full story at Chicago Tribune) He's not even affording his "FRIEND?" the opportunity to grow from this experience...let alone the aggregate school of (cultural institutionalized subliminal) racist thought that pervades every prism of life in this great country of ours.
There is a larger lesson here than choice of words. (Lynching look up what that could potentially entail)
The underlying lesson we can only hope one takes from reading this is that the disease of racism is not benign. While I realize that Tiger is of mixed decent and it is not his obligation - the agendas of the many ethnicites' he represents - he DOES have a greater responsibility to humanity for all he has been afforded. If we ignore this, it most certainly, won't go away. Ever astounded at the... more
