Dont you understand?? None of your absurd assumptions are relevant!
They will not explain nor will they bring back this murdered Black man!
Dont you understand?? None of your absurd assumptions are relevant!Well, duh. That's the same with race. You realize black men are responsible for around half the homicides despite making up only about 6% of the population? From the 2.5:1 black male vs. white male death by cop ratio, adjust violent crime difference and low SES. That leaves little for racism to account for the numbers.
First, Blacks make up 12.6% of the US population, not 6%. Second, are you confusing arrests with convictions? Because arrests is the only data that I can find that supports your statement above, which 100% demonstrates racism, not the opposite as you state. You also have to take a long hard look at the rate of wrongful murder convictions, which happens to blacks 50% of the time, vs only 36% of the time for whites (as of 2017): http://www.law.umich.edu/special/exoneration/Documents/Race_and_Wrongful_Convictions.pdfWell, duh.

Cool story you all should start a thread on the subject. No one has alleged anyone assaulted by police in the OP was a criminal.Read again. Black males. Females don't contribute significantly to the percent.
It's relatively easy to track with victim data.
FactCheck: do black Americans commit more crime?
Anti-police protests continue across America after the Michael Brown killing. But does the black community have tough questions to answer too?www.channel4.com
And yes, according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, black offenders committed 52 per cent of homicides recorded in the data between 1980 and 2008. Only 45 per cent of the offenders were white. Homicide is a broader category than “murder” but let’s not split hairs.
What about violent crime more generally? FBI arrest rates are one way into this. Over the last three years of data – 2011 to 2013 – 38.5 per cent of people arrested for murder, manslaughter, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault were black.
Clearly, these figures are problematic. We’re talking about arrests not convictions, and high black arrest rates could be taken as evidence that the police are racist.
But academics have noted that the proportion of black suspects arrested by the police tends to match closely the proportion of offenders identified as black by victims in the National Crime Victimization Survey.
This doesn’t support the idea that the police are unfairly discriminating against the black population when they make arrests.
If anything, black people are getting away with unsolved violent crimes.
Why Chicago violent crimes go unsolved
Gun violence runs amok in Chicago. The Police Department solved just 17 percent of homicides in 2017. This is a disaster for the city.www.chicagotribune.com
That wouldn't change anything. Wrongful convictions for murder would probably be like 2-5% (difference being even smaller), with the true criminal being the same race the vast majority of the time.
Edit: If your point was that wrongful conviction difference is a "racist" disparity, what say you about the gender disparities? It's obvious that it s a function of how much crime a group does. If a given group has more little shits, then they'll get saddled with worse generalizations. Ironically, the woke liberals do this with cops to a completely absurd degree.

it's 31 to 45 and they ripe out the last few pages because they don't like the endingThe only history book they seem to have is one for Germany from 1931 to say, 1942.
because he didn't want to be mass mooned?I have this same question.
Wow, repeating your stupid argument. You think civil rights protestors should have just gone home when the white man's police force came. Rosa Parks should have gone and sat in the back of the bus when the police came, right? They had every right to be in that public space. The Church that Trump visited denounced him.
Trump is a proven security risk; they didn’t gas him.Speaking of stupid arguments, I like how people keep comparing the Washington DC protestors to great civil rights leaders Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King. It's almost like you completely forgot that the night before they were looting stores, vandalizing national monuments, and setting fire to a church next door to the White House.
Sure, not everyone in that group took part in that, but pretending that they weren't a security risk is naive at best.

Anyone who thinks racism doesn’t play a part in disparate law enforcement numbers is either comically ignorant or is pushing an agenda. The easiest way to see this is through marijuana convictions. Studies show black people and white people smoke pot at roughly equal rates but black people are arrested marijuana possession at more than twice the rate white people are.First, Blacks make up 12.6% of the US population, not 6%.

Or remember events like the Selma to Montgomery marches including Bloody Sunday.The vast majority of protesters have been peaceful. I am continually amazed at how much of this country has just memory holed the 60s except for like the moon landing. There was incredible racial violence, killings, bombings, rampant police brutality, lynchings, etc.
Modern day white conservatives wrapping themselves in imagery of MLK to complain about current protests is particularly disturbing. Quite clearly they didn't listen to a word he said.
Not to mention white conservatives HATED MLK while he was alive.The vast majority of protesters have been peaceful.

It’s the same thing they always do when people protest injustice - claim they have no issue with protesting, they just don’t want people to protest like X. X being literally whatever way they are protesting currently.
I’m not the biggest Trevor Noah fan put he exposed this nonsense perfectly when he had Tomi Lahren on to discuss the NFL kneeling. He simply said ‘okay, if this is not an appropriate way to protest, then what is?’ She had no answer.
Exactly, the thing they don't like is black people protesting - they just know that it's not okay to say that so they invent objections as to the manner of protest, holding out that there is of course some kind of protest that they would totally get behind if only the black people would just do that.Dude was illegally surveilled, harassed, and the FBI attempted to blackmail him into committing suicide. All of this would have met with the broad approval of white conservatives at the time as a proper response.
There is no acceptable form of protest to white conservatives. Every time they talk about it they are "Well I of course support the right to protest, but..." no matter what is taking place.
I would draw a distinction in protesting to stop systemic racism in police departments because it's costing blacks their lives. That vs storming state capitals with semi automatic weapons, people dressed in blackface, sporting confederate flags so they can go out for a beer or get their mani-pedisSpeaking of stupid arguments, I like how people keep comparing the Washington DC protestors to great civil rights leaders Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King.

Justin Trudeau asked by reporter about Trump's incitements, stands awkwardly at podium for 30 seconds without saying a word, then mumbles something about racial equality and says nothing about Trump.
Justin Trudeau was asked about President Trump. See how long it took him to respond - CNN Video
A reporter asked Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau about tear gas being used on US protesters so that President Trump could have a photo-op in front of a burned church near the White House.www.cnn.com
This is what happens when we have a POTUS who will retaliate by literally damaging relations with another country if that country's leader dares to criticize him. Trudeau is truly pathetic here.
You know my take on that is Trudeau was sort of like 30 seconds of how do you respond nicely concerning Trumps incitements? You know like a silent 30 second WTF!!!To each of their own, We in general are happy Trudeau give 30sec of silence protest to Trump. Seriously you forgot /s?
