I'm not talking about those people. The actual criminals are there for a reason. I'm talking about the down on his luck black dude who got pulled over for being black on his way back from work, got busted for possession of a small amount of pot, and gets locked up for it.

Nothing about "the system" is rigged against any race. There are laws meant to guarantee this.
Blacks receive longer sentences when they are poor and cannot afford solid representation, just like poor whites. They also receive longer sentences for repeat offenses. Same for whites.
Difference is, there is a much larger portion of the black population that are poor and/or career criminals.
Personal prejudice exists, but it makes sense. If you spend all day every day dealing with savage criminals and a majority of them wore red hats, you'd probably start to be more wary of people that wear red hats.

that doesn't mean that your dislike of red hats is justified. those people wearing the red hats are not representative of other people wearing red hats, and those of us too stupid to understand that is why we a lot of problems in this country exist.

Do all blacks commit crimes?

Perhaps, I only have the stats for the ones that commit crimes so severe they are imprisoned. One thing is for certain, blacks do proliferate a culture of rape and crime and murder.
If I found a black man that hasn't committed any crimes, would that invalidate the fact that black culture is a culture of crime and rape? Should we we all escape into fantasy land and ignore reality because reality is racist?

Incorrect.
When a civilized society is forced to segregate vast numbers of a minority group... to lock them in cages for the protection of the innocent... then those criminals and their criminal culture are clearly incompatible with the larger community.
Your argument that a minority group that must be locked in cages for the safety of the greater community, is as good a representation of a culture as citizens that aren't criminals, is asinine.
Being forced to lock vast numbers of a minority group in cages for the safety of the greater community is a clear indication that the criminals are recognized as incompatible by the greater community.
Your claim is rejected.

vast numbers of a majority group are also locked in cages for the safety of the greater community. perhaps no one is compatible with anyone else?

But you get to decide that the raping and murdering blacks are not true blacks of course. As long as there is one good black person somewhere it doesn't matter what all the rest do or how they collectively effect society.

there is no "true black" just like there is no "true human." there are good ones and bad ones.
that's ridiculous. are you implying that almost all black people are bad for everybody else?
