If we had a mile race, and a group of runners got a head start, then the other runners had to also run with ankle weights on... If you are suggesting that race is a minimal factor circa 2008 in America, I would suggest that you are not paying close attention.

Nothing on this planet has the same chance, not a man, animal, or a leaf on a tree. What matters is that we are all given equal justice. We should receive what we deserve as individuals not by how our ancestors were treated. My ancestors were chased out of every decent country in Europe. There is not one group of people in the world who has not been beat up on by one group or another. That's just the nature of humanity, and, barring the return of Christ, it will never change.
