What would be the percent of total black population killed by police annually, versus the percent of all white people killed by police annually?

These percentages would be a better number to look at than the total number killed because whites outnumber blacks by ~5:1.

That is because you are being victimized by the media you choose to consume. They tell you what to think, and believe, and you comply.

Agreed, and take it a step further. What percent of criminals proportionate to the population are white, black, asians, etc. How many repeat criminals proportionally are each compared to the entire population?

That may be true in Texas. But we aren't talking about Texas here.

Let's stick with Minnesota because last time i checked Minneapolis is in in Minnesota, not Texas

Page 4. Traffic violation is still a civil matter aka administrative action, not misdemeanor.

They are in denial because they are consuming propaganda from left wing nutjobs 24-7-365. All they watch is CNN, MSNBC, ect.. They are being brainwashed, and are too ignorant to realize it.

I will never understand how targeting the family, who had no role whatsoever in the incident, helps anything. If anything, it stokes fear in the general population and turns away would-be supporters.

But this lends credence to Kris Lawrence-Anderson’s claims for why she voted to fire the city manager.

Appeasement of these rioters is not working. I see the cop will be charged today. With what? An accident that led to the death of very violent criminal who was trying to escape?

The answers would reveal that blacks commit more crimes as a proportion of the total population than whites do, and they also repeat offend more too.

Which political party controls the environments they are raised in? Dems! For how long? Decades! The Dems need to own this, and fix this.
