This is pretty well-known stuff. Please educate yourself.

You forgot something. Also you look foolish telling people to educate themselves on Wikipedia

(

- Discrimination by law enforcement OR - Childhood exposure to violence OR - Inability to post bail OR - Socioeconomic factors OR - Housing segregation OR - Sociocultural factors

)

I look foolish for telling people to begin their research on a common, well-established public encyclopedia?

Do you seriously not understand that each of these issues lead to bad personal choices? Your comment does not seem to be made in good faith, and this is the sort of mentality that we as a society need to eradicate.

People have agency. Just like now when you used your agency and called for my eradication.

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the future. Of course, I won't be around to enjoy it with you, but this guy seems like great company, so enjoy.

Are you so sheltered that you cannot draw a link between one's environment & upbringing, and impaired agency?
