Allow me to give you a history lesson. The United States used to have slavery. All of the slaves were black and originally from the continent of Africa. They had no rights and received no education or money. Suddenly, slavery was made illegal. These people (formerly considered property) were in a strange land with no money and no education. 

But even though slavery ended, blacks were still discriminated against by the white majority. They struggled to eke out a living. Eventually, more laws were  enacted to eliminate the adverse treatment they received from society. This article speaks to those additional laws and attempts to eliminate the separate and very unequal treatment blacks and other minorities have suffered in this country founded by white people.

Human nature? Maybe you think we should get rid of criminal laws, as they arguably go against human nature.
