Oh I’m sure plenty of whites have been killed by the cops unjustifiably, but the white community typically believes that if the cops shoot you, then you obviously deserved it. They don’t wanna hear any particulars.

No. When a white person is killed by the cops it doesn’t make the 24 hour national news cycle and there is no outrage on social media nor are there riots looting or burning of businesses and buildings. Nobody cares. If George Floyd was white he’d still be dead and you would have never heard about it. There would also have been no rioting looting or protest or destruction of cities. That’s reality.

The way he was killed I don't agree.

It already happened. His name was Tony Timpa. No rioting. No looting. No 24 hour coverage on CNN or Fox. No cities burning to the ground.
In 2017 there were 457 white people shot by police. In 2018 399. In 2019 370. So far in 2020 there have been 42. Keep in mind this is just shot to death by police not just killed in any manner. It happens a lot and you can’t name a single one of them. White people are being hunted down by police yet not a peep about it in the national media. None. And if white people were to actually riot and protest about these killings it would be called ‘white privilege’ or ‘white supremacy’ for trying to attract activists and have it stopped by the media and people like you. That’s why white people can’t protest nobody would listen or care and it would be cast aside as some bizarre type of nonexistent ‘privilege’.

Kelley Thomas got wall to wall national coverage.

The rest of your post is nonsense. If people want to protest, they can and should. I guarantee you blacks would join the protest too.

You have people on here calling white people that protested peacefully at the Michigan State Capital ‘white supremacy’. There was no looting no rioting no burning businesses or buildings but they were still called ‘white suprematist’ and you want me to believe that white peoples protesting white citizens murdered by police wouldn’t be painted in the same exact manner by the media? I have some beachfront property in Kansas to sell you.

There's tons of hyperbole, exaggeration and indoctrination that goes into all of that.

But yes, as it so happens, a black cop shot and killed an innocent white woman name Justine Damond in Minneapolis in 2017. Granted, that's just one that I know of right off the top of my head. The difference is that there was not massive tantrum thrown afterwards. Damond actually called 911 to report an assault on another woman near her house.

This gained more of a high profile status because the woman was from Australia originally, so her family's outrage coming from over there turned it into something of an international incident.

The trouble with innocent white people getting shot by black cops in general is the simple fact that nobody cares. The news doesn't report it. You don't have BLM and the NAACP calling for the lynching of the black cop. You have to toss something extra into the mix just to make people care.

Google is your friend. A simple search would have led you somewhere like this, where you would learn that the significant majority of people shot and killed by the police are white. Yes blacks are somewhat over-represented among those shot and killed by cops, but blacks also commit a lot more crime on average. They still commit about 50% of all homicides every year despite being only 10% of the US population.

How many of the 399 white people shot and killed by the police in 2018 were widely reported? These people have names. Lives. Families. Their lives actually matter. But you're never going to see them reported on CNN. There's a reason nobody can list their names: Nobody ever hears about it. Why is that?

top 3 whitest states in the US:

top 3 states with lowest violent crime rate

Maine
Vermont
New Hampshire

https://www.usatoday.com/story/money...rate/40968963/

we good.
Blackest states-
Mississippi
Louisiana
Georgia

Least white states-
Hawaii
California
New Mexico

Highest violent crime rates-
Alaska
New Mexico
Tennessee

It has more to do with culture than race, New England and the Northeast in general are the safest regions in the U.S because of the NE culture. Maine Vermont and New Hampshire just happen to be very white as well. If the south was as white as the above three states it would have something like double the homicide rate maybe even triple of these states.

Took the words out of my mouth. If this guy had been Black the whole state if AZ would have burned. This while White cop Black suspect thing is what should burn.

It's not a Black thing. It's a COP thing. Get over the whole Black victim bit. It's way old!
