Only in America folks....

 

[slimreaper]

This is so dumb.


there are two reasons in the entire video


1. Criminal cop who gets charged

2. Person who does an illegal activity and the escalates their confrontation with police resulting in police use of force via fear of personal bodily harm, or accidental death in the process of detaining.

[Phact]

This is an important topic that people need to discuss and solve for America to move forward.

 

[Sonnelion]

No! It doesn't.. If you don't do you own research & find what it is you want to know & he real facks then they won't tell you. Here in American the media is controlled & it's always divide never come together.. It's been that way since Bush1.

White, Blacks Mexican,hispanic,Asian no matter the breed have all died in those same situations but not reported or talked about..

It's bullshit & these celebs who people look up too should know better.


That's a divide & conquer Technique that I don't like..

So the truth is a "divide and conquer" technique?

Answer this question. If everyone's lives obviously matter except black people... Are cops always charged when they kill white people? Are they even charged most of the time? The answer is unequivocally no.


I mean really? If you believe black lives don't matter and need a "black lives matter" movement, prove to me white lives matter to police. Because last year alone they killed over 700 of us but yet we didn't start a dumbass movement.

 

[Aimee Sky]

But why does this have ta happen? :NO:

Whites are 62 percent of the population and blacks are 13, off-course more whites would be killed because there are more whites living in the usa. Blacks are more disproportionately killed in terms of their population size. Proof to me black lives matter to police not less than white lives, the burden of proof is on you not me.

firstly whites make up 72% not 62.


Second, Provide an example of anything that happens anywhere that is proportionate along racial lines and population size.


Third, the assertion is that black lives don't matter and white lives do. By definition the burden of proof is on you to prove those assertions correct. You can only do so comparing apples to apples though. See what BLM likes to do is compare white police killing black people to black civilians killing white civilians.

You were asked for proportional relations proof you came with this :sdo:

You can't just transfer the burden of proof. The assumption is that black lives don't matter compared to white lives. It's up to the black lives matter movement to prove that point so they have a case. So far all they've done is compare blacks killed by police to whites killed by other white civilians.

But if you wish

“The data doesn’t indicate which shootings are justified (the vast majority) and which are cold-blooded murder (not many, but some). And maybe that would vary by race. I don’t know, but I doubt it,” Mr. Moskos said on his blog.
Adjusted to take into account the racial breakdown of the U.S. population, he said black men are 3.5 times more likely to be killed by police than white men. But also adjusted to take into account the racial breakdown in violent crime, the data actually show that police are less likely to kill black suspects than white ones.


“Adjusted for the homicide rate, whites are 1.7 times more likely than blacks die at the hands of police,” he said. “Adjusted for the racial disparity at which police are feloniously killed, whites are 1.3 times more likely than blacks to die at the hands of police.”
