I’ve seen most people attribute it to women in general being given less raises and promotions.

That's true, and the blame is put on the women for not valuing their professional worth enough to ASK for a raise.

I thought this was about black people being jailed for drug offences.

Yeah sorry for the derail. I was just making a comparison - wage gap believers act like the final figures are for the same jobs instead of broad averages, so maybe the differently applied justice ("justice") is for different drug crimes?

I'm gonna enter tin foil hat territory now ... some think the gender gap in prison sentences (with men being jailed more often and for longer) is due due to outsourced prison labour, i.e. prisons making money from their prisoners. Men on average are stronger than women, and black men are on average stronger than us crackers, so maaaybeeee there's string-pulling so private companies can outsource the "better" physical labour for as little as possible?

Er... no. Prisoners aren't required to work in a chain gang any longer.

This one, apparently:
One3One Solutions is the trading arm of the Ministry of Justice founded in 2012. Over 9,700 prisoners were employed in their profit-making partnerships with private companies, with a total of 13.1 million prisoner working hours being recorded (1).
Private sector prisons (those run for-profit) reported that they delivered over 1.5 million prisoner working hours involving over 1,200 prisoners in 2012/13. (1)
Prisoners working full time at a minimum will receive £4 a week. Prisoners working in workshops run by private companies may earn up to £25 per week if they are lucky.

I'm aware of that no need to be so offensive!!
What was all that rubbish yesterday about rudeness to other forum members?...

Your ridiculous tin pot idea that big strong black men are jailed to do all the prison jobs is laughable!

There is literally nothing in that link to suggest that either.

To be fair I admitted it was pretty tin foil hat :joker:

What the actual F...:conf:

Ollie you're starting to scare me. Where do you get this stuff from? You seem to believe alot of stereotypes and its starting to scare me. Do you think black men have got bigger dicks too? There are strong black men and weak black men, you are simply perpetuating a stereotype, nothing more nothing less. This is not the substance of serious debates.
