Excerpted on the advice of Admin Moderator. The body of the text goes on to say that this idea is being considered for Cook County Illinois, which includes Chicago.

I see. If you’re black, you get a pass.
So much for equal protection under the law. Now it’s dead, too.
Man, they really do want massive civil unrest so they can lower the hammer, don’t they?

I am posting this to the forum for your comments, because I, for one, am speechless at this incredible abuse of the legal system and the threat it poses to society, should it become ubiquitous.

Sounds like a stupid idea. It violates equal protection by giving criminals of a specified race a pass on responsibility for their criminal acts. You do the crime, you do the time. The legal system is stuck on stupid of late.

Typical failed liberalism. Never addresses the source of the problem.
Maybe they can "expunge" this speeding ticket I got last week while they're at it.
To: Tigerized
Oh, if this ever gets off the ground there WILL be equal protection lawsuits by whites and other nonblacks.
Has this been tried elsewhere in the world and how well (or poorly) has it turned out?

What a great idea just think a rapist could have his record exponged and then go to work as an orderly in a hospital!*sarcasm*
To: shibumi
It appears this initiative has less to do with "giving blacks a second chance" and more to do with the lack of money available to lock up repeat offenders.
Just wipe the slate clean and hope for the best.
There's going to be a lot of this happening around the country as budgets dry up. Stay armed and keep your head on a swivel! There's a lot of bad guys running loose.

Changing that dynamic could begin with expunging their criminal records. I got a better idea for "changing the dynamic." Stop committing crimes.

A big part of the problem is that it seems to be cool in the black community to be a social loser. A sort of passive aggressive payback to Whitey for long ago slavery and Jim Crow. If you lionize typical rap, you shouldn’t complain about what it inspires.

Well somebody already successfully expunged our elected Pharaoh’s records. No surprise it would be considered as means and methods to make common.
To: shibumi
Whites are the largest group. One would think whites would fix things in their favor. Or at least actively secure fairness. I hear them say tough stuff and all. Huh.

This might be more about petty thefts, petty vandalism, littering, pot smoking, and that sort of thing.

Lower what hammer? If that point in time ever comes, I’ll bet that the military is pointing their weapons in the direction of the WH.

Are you kidding? No other legal system could possibly be that stupid!/s;)
To: shibumi
If this doesn’t work to improve their self-image, I suppose the next step of affirmative action would be to put their criminal records onto whites.
Why you could just pick whites out of the population at random to make it fair(er)and put a criminal record on them, assessing each so many juvie busts, a few minor misdemeanors and then some heavy felonies.
Just look at what that would do to the job market, college applications, and applications to country clubs.
