So you were right in your earlier post that people do probably, in general, see women as more vulnerable and feel entitled to their stuff, but I have to wonder, for somebody who makes an argument that consists of "you're privileged so you don't understand", how much privilege do you have to have to also have such incredible faith in the criminal justice system and in police officers?

If he's not going to contribute, he may as well be removed from society until whatever it is that needs to take place in order to reform him has been done.
I realize that my status as a well-dressed, put together, twentysomething white woman with a clean record gives me the privilege of naturally being treated with more care than some other persons belonging to other demographics. But in how many other situations does this apply? Hardly any. So I'm treated favorably by the police. So what? I'm treated like garbage by the rest of society just because I'm a woman.
