Assuming ceteris paribus, this is inexcusable. Maybe OP can run a letter writing campaign

They think its because judges go easier on women, meanwhile minority men go to jail longer than white men do for the same crime.
Optimistz
You mean to say that this sentence would be longer if a male said it rather than a female ? So iI believed that, females typed longer 1/2
2/2 longer Sentences, And that too it was too long to read . pun intended.
GAngeldb
If you are black you also get longer sentences. And if you are a black male, who smokes weed in a school zone, with your penis out! Done!
goodisunpopular
Correction OP, more males believe females are not as capable of the same things as them. Males judges sentenced the females to lighter terms
LonelyBrannigan
Argument goes that it's still patriarchy: it's manly as a powerful man (judge) to hurt other men (convicted). That's the feminist claim.

That's cuz we makes do it 63% better

Honey, we do protest that, too. Sincerely, a feminist.

Just because you don't read and hear about it doesn't mean it isn't happening. The media can be very selective with what they cover.
mariomario42
Just like the wage gap stuff or African Americans in jail, such a broad statement means very little since it is not including other details.
OrcSkinSuit
That's because men are better at it.

If this was an issue you cared about, you'd be out there protesting...not trying to bring down someone else's protest ????

I never trust these info-posts until they link a source.
Also, as a man I'm not complaining since it's as hard to avoid doing crimes for both men and women

Yes. Yes, you do see people protesting. Because there still are feminists out there fighting for real gender equality.
BreakfastTequila
Well that's not true, because feminists do not want equality. Feminism is all about oppressing men.

Yeah, and good! Isn't feminism meant to be about, equality for both, right? New wave feminism has ruined it. Correct me if I'm wrong???
MotionOfTheOcean
I think you're right what it is supposed to be.
temujin9
Feminism hasn't been ruined just because assholes on one side are only paying attention to assholes on the other. So . . . you're wrong.
Okay fair point. I guess what I'm wondering at what point did the word feminist become a bad name by association?? I'm asking because
I genuinely don't know.
It's always been a slimy word in the mouths of its opponents. Lately, the internet has afforded them some example assholes to hate on.
AuroraMoon
Yep. As an feminist myself I believe that any woman who commits the same kind of crimes that a man does should get the same sentence. (1/2)
Murder, rape, etc... you name it, a woman should do the same hard time as any man does if she committed those crimes. 92/2
ParanoidWithGoodCause
the problem is most "feminist" organizations want longer sentences for male and an end to the presumption of innocence for accused men

Source (including the claim of 'most')? I find this very hard to believe as I have never seen someone call for this.
then go look at what they have to say anytime a man is accused of "rape" or "violence against a woman"
Pretty sure sentencing reform is a high priority for most SJW types.
bloatedplutocrat
Hey OP, did you know that you are legally able to protest this? Like you can go organize a group and stage a protest.
Erin Pizzey did something similar; she got a lot of death and bomb threats.
true. and you get called a 'male rights activist' (which is considered an insult these days) and potentially get fired for it.
http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2013/04/poll_should_male_teachers_get.html poll says otherwise as do OPs stats (published by a woman)
? neither of those things show someone trying to organize a group and stage a protest....

I've never seen a feminist stage a protest to ask for more lenient prison terms for men. You lie. Why you lie?
Then you havent looked far into it.
onlyhalfghost
feminists of the previous "wave" would probably have been pissed off anyway, back when it was actually about equality.
gossegotha
And here he is legally protesting it. You think IRL protests matter c. 2016?
htmwc
Probably a lot more effective than posting here, tbh. I doubt Barack is a user.
The only math that matters is how many minds you changed. Classical protests often backfire by that arithmetic.
You think online protests do?
It's all about reaching minds and making actual lasting changes in them. Traditional protests do that less than Imgur comments.
