Let's talk about the result -- the state police and the State of Maryland lost its court cases and it was considered a landmark case.

In this example, they want whites to be arrested at the same rate or more even though they don't commit crime at the same rate. How will this be accomplished? By not arresting black law breakers and falsely arresting whites.

Progressive liberals are the ones that are racist and dangerous.
This is a good example of projection.

That's why I said comparing the U.S. to Iceland -- the whitest country on the planet -- is like comparing the U.S. to Beverly Hills.

If you're going to paint Latin America as violent, that should be noted
No, the great majority of Latinos are of mixed race -- Spanish or Portuguese White with native Central or South American Indian.

There are also Latino blacks, Latinos who are mixed white, Indian and black, Asian Latinos, and Jewish Latinos.

Latino is not a race, and Latinos are certainly NOT mostly white.

So, when you're face to face with a cop, it's probably in your best interest to not appear threatening.
Exactly.

I don't believe for a minute that these activists don't already know this.

For as long as it takes investigators to come and check for such things as bullet shells, map out bullet trajectories, gather forensic evidence, etc.

Surely you would want an officer shooting to be fully investigated, right?

Moving the body would destroy that investigation.

Five Myths About Crime in Black America--and the Statistical Truths | Colorlines

Black people are disproportionately killed by law enforcement and also are more likely to be treated more harshly at any level of the criminal justice system: arrest, sentencing, pleas, jail time.

That's the real problem here. Systemic issues.
The only systemic problem here is that blacks -- for whatever reason -- commit a disproportionately high amount of crimes, and their fellow blacks are mostly the victims.

By the way, our violent crime rate has dropped over the past 30 years, yet we have way more people in jail. What is wrong with that picture?
The crime rate has dropped because sentencing laws like "three strikes" put career criminals in jail and keep them there.

Some criminals will commit hundreds of crimes in their lifetime, and only be caught for a small percentage of them.

So when they are finally taken off the streets for good, the crime rate drops dramatically.

Just stop. My arguments are rock solid and and I posted the desired sources. This is embarrasing even for the apologists.

You are ashamed of the black community and need to make silly excuses to disregard anyone who tries to hold up a mirror. You and people like you are holding blacks on the welfare planation whiles all other races continue to rise. Shame on you.

These are your facts, for all of the world to see, whether you like it or not:

Only 7% of Detroit Public-School 8th Graders Proficient in Reading

http://www.live5news.com/story/26227...econd-language


These are your facts. Have the courage to pull your head from the sand and face them. This is not a legacy of slavery. This is not the results of white racism. This is blacks not trying to succeed. And unless people like you correct your poor, apologist behavior and demand a higer standard from american blacks, i will be making the same excellent points in 20 years and you will still be trying to find silly reasons to dismiss them.

Crime is most closely linked to socioeconomic issues. As long as blacks are disproportionately poor and grow up in single family households they will continue to be a larger percentage of the criminal population. You also have the chicken and the egg affect in poor areas where crime is high. Crime is high, so more police are present, more arrests made, shows crime is high, more police present, more arrest made, and the cycle continues.

In the end, living a decent life in America for anyone is pretty easily attainable if you do just a few things
Of course, as a lot of White people are finding out -- you know, those who work for big box chains (and so forth), getting a full-time job is getting more and more difficult. So cross #2 off that list of 3 if you want to be realistic.

I agree. I also really wonder how people who probably have not spent an hour talking with a member of another race/nationality know so much about how/what the people feel.

Cops will observe someone who doesn't have a seat belt on in the same fashion, either he's behind them, or the car is stopped at a red light, or he initially pulls them over for something else, approaches the car and observes that the driver isn't wearing one. Again, he isn't on I-95 as a car whizez by at 65+ mph to observe it

A cop can catch you on a cell phone the same way. Again, he isn't at a standstill as the car whizez by at 65+ mph on I-95

This is why no one takes black activists seriously.

Little if any
thought is put into the fine details of their reasoning.

So please explain how a cop can be at a standstill on I-95 holding a radar gun, and observe the race of the driver as he travels by at more than 65+ mph?
Why do you totally ignore the point made that acknowledges that perhaps police cannot identify the identity of a person driving by, but may give different treatment to the driver depending on who they are after pulling them over?

I was willing to concede the possibility that police may not be able to identify the race of a person prior to pulling them over and presented another possibility for the discrepancy in who gets tickets, and you totally ignore that.

Is it because you have nothing to counter it with?

Are you kidding me....????

The way she talked to that cop, I wouldn't talk to my dog the way she talked to that cop!
You don't talk to people like that, let alone a cop?

I swear, for the life of me, where does this mentality come from. I know a lot of blacks who are co-horts, friends and church family and none of them don't even think like this let alone talk like this....
believe me...they are constantly saying, this is the sort of thing that paints black people bad....and it does...

The mouth on that woman was awful....

It is another side affect of obamacare.

Being rude is not a crime. Prisons are not full of people who were rude to others. Prison's are not full of people who cursed out people.

On the other hand, there are plenty of people in prison who lost their temper in the face of mean, painless words, and physically attacked the person being rude.

A bad attitude is not a crime. The majority of a cops job is customer service, and anyone else in a customer service job who attacks someone because they are being verbally hostile would find themselves fired and locked up.
