    Bingo.

    When you realize that the primary purpose of our incarceration system is to keep black and brown folks "in line," it all makes sense.  Our prison system has only as a tertiary or lower purpose actual "public safety."

    And the feedback loop that it generates. Minorities are the vast majority of inmates, therefore minorities must be more criminal and more violent. Therefore we must give them fewer chances and longer sentences.  
     

    im sure there’s a whole chapter on it in the 2nd grade CRT textbook.

    Considering the US has one of the highest incarceration rates in the developed world, is it your opinion that Americans are just inherently worse people per capita than places like say Scandinavia, and that more people in jail for longer sentences is a solution?

    While being ignorant of actual facts, I do wonder if the incarceration rate delta is driven by drug laws and punishments that are more harsh than in the rest of the world.

    Going for it was the right call. They had a chance to functionally end the game by getting a yard in two snaps. You literally cannot get a better deal in football. The play calls though, good lord.

    You also basically guarantee a loss if you don’t get it, by removing Texas’s need to gain a single yard on offense.  And you don’t even guarantee a win if you get it.  I wouldn’t ever like those odds. Kick it, expect 3 the other way, and see what 2OT deals you as the second team on offense.
