The problem's actually a bit worse than this 'cause we're not just sending poor kids to prison, we're saddling poor kids with court fees, with probation and parole restrictions, with low-level warrants, we're asking them to live in halfway houses and on house arrest, and we're asking them to negotiate a police force that is entering poor communities of color, not for the purposes of promoting public safety, but to make arrest counts, to line city coffers.
问题是事实更为糟糕 因为我们不只是把贫困的孩子送入监狱 我们还给他们加上了许多沉重的枷锁，比如诉讼费的负担 比如感化和假释的限制 比如轻微的犯罪通缉 我们让他们待在过渡教习所或者软禁在家 我们让他们和警察交涉 而当这些警察要进入有色人种的社区 不是为了改善公共安全 而是为了政绩去保证逮捕数量
