[Xaccers]

Well, find out what their crimes were to warrant the DP, and compare it to the crimes comitted by the rest of the lifers.

Louisiana has a high ex-slave population, which tends to be at the lower end of the social scale, leading to high involvement with hard drugs and gangs, therefore multiple murders rather than just a single kill.

Which of the following are you suggesting?

1. There are more blacks on DR because the Louisiana judicial system is racist.
2. There are more blacks on DR because more blacks are exposed to situations resulting in justified DR sentences.
3. Blacks shouldn't be put on DR.
