It's not a fantasy, these things happen all the time. I know that you liberals feel that nobody would be able to do anything without your help, but thats simply not the case.
Now i do concede that it is harder to make your way out of poverty, but not impossible. Otherwise nobody would ever do it.
And yes there are many different factors that lead to a life of crime, but FIRST AND FOREMOST is the concious choice to ignore the law.

Sure. But if you take a set of black twins, leave one in poverty and put one in an upper-class environment, the path to college/better life is exponentially easier.

I mean exactly what I said. Everyone is born free and equal under the law.
and taking a set of black twins then seperating them and giving one a different set of life circumstances then you are changeing the context of my example. Two people in the same exactsetting can have two completely different outcomes regardless of external factors, therefore it is choice that dictates their lives.
