In an order issued today, U.S. District Court Judge Vince Chhabria said that the hand-written notes of prosecutors from a 31-year-old murder case “constitute strong evidence that, in prior decades, prosecutors from the [Alameda County District Attorney’s] office were engaged in a pattern of serious misconduct, automatically excluding Jewish and African American jurors in death penalty cases.”

        Okay, I get it. White women are the worst people in the world and should be barred from being on juries.

          It almost like you can fight the injustices your gender faces while recognizing the privilege that comes with your race.

          But I guess pretending white women do no wrong is easier for you. Also it doesn’t help you’re using a talking point white “all lives matter” men use.

            I was talking about race this entire time. Literally over and over again.

            I also don’t remember pretending that white women can do no wrong.

            When did I pretend such a thing?

            That wouldn’t be a lie, would it?

              You’ve basically argued this entire time that white women are not problematic when it comes to jury bias. While im criticizing the very real problems in the justice system white women are responsible for your response is

              This is like arguing with a cop apologist

                I have not argued that at all. I know that’s what you want me to argue, but that’s different.

                  So you didn’t exclude white women from the ignorance of the injustices minorities face from jury bias in your original comment? Because you did

                    No, I really didn’t. Again, I know that’s what you wanted me to do though.
