Blacks kill cops at 4 times the rate of whites that kill cops. Blacks commit homicides at over 6 times the rate than that of whites that commit homicide.
Duh.
and it is constantly proven with facts. It doesnt mean anyone dislikes black people it just the facts. I know a few hundred black people that are 10x smarter and overall better people than I am but that doesnt change society as a whole. This is all media driven.
For some people, anything that doesn't fit their preferred narrative must be staged. Sandy Hook? Staged. 9-1-1? A setup.
Data from Statista shows that 432 White people were killed by the police in 2020, as compared to 226 Black Americans. But blacks only make up 13% of the population. Per capita, blacks are killed by police far more than whites.
you're right - the Black share of death by cop is about 2.2X higher than whites (1.7 to 0.7).
And in absolute numbers, between 2004-2013, more cops were killed by white people than Blacks. However, Blacks kill cops at an even higher rate than 2.2X whites - it's about 4x. Because a similar # of cop deaths were from Blacks (243) as whites (289)
have you heard of things like The Innocence Project? Or wrongful convictions? Literally innocent black people end up in prison all the time.
So tell me, how are black NOT being held accountable when we are over-represented in the prison system, with overlap into innocent blacks?
What's the percentage? 1%? 5%? 25%?
I am not saying there have never been wrongful convictions; other races have that misfortune too.
But you said blacks are overrepresented.
They are NOT.
And do you know why, 8won6?
Because according to the FBI's Crime In the United States report, which is released to the public and can be downloaded free of charge, people who are black (most often black men of a certain age range) commit many crimes. This smaller section of the black American community commits approximately 50% of the country's annual criminal homicides, and about 90% of their victims are black as well.
Blacks also commit robbery, assault, rape, and other offenses in high numbers.
People who do the crime do the time. It's that simple.
the point is the police treat people differently along racial lines. Stop being obtuse. Is it pissing you off that I don't have to reach and exaggerate like some of yall do when the victim is black. Nothing i said about THIS man was a reach or exaggeration.
Just showing people that the police talking all that "fear for my life" stuff is crap. an armed white man threatens them and all of a sudden them guns don't work anymore.
You have ONE example. A sample of one is not proof of a trend. Context matters as well. Was this in a very dangerous neighborhood or safe one? This post does nothing but play on people's emotions. It is dangerous and could be misleading. All data needs to be looks at and examined. According to a professor (who happens to be black) who did a multi-year study, there is not bias in shooting black suspects. Who should I believe? One off Youtube example or a multi-year study by a professor?
