(While I do believe a bias exists in prosecuting minorities and this is reflected in sentencing, I don't believe it accounts for the wide gap in per capita violent crime committed which is better explained again by environment)

This is only anecdotal but as a child I was frequently assaulted in a criminal manner by a white male. Had we been in a small urban apartment instead of a secluded suburban home the police would have probably been alerted to the commotion. I'd say we're talking about once every two weeks between when I was 5 to about 15 when it slowed down. Let's say ten years times 25 assaults. That makes for around 250 unprosecuted white crimes that I fell victim to. So I'm not so sure.
