And WHO do you say is the BLM leader and how did he/she/they become who YOU accept at their spokesperson(s)? Was there an election?
It's not trash. Them are facts that the police force is getting themselves an extensive violent, acting unlawful history. Hence the police force got much to answer for.
Oh the facts dictate that places like Ferguson applies apartheid rule against the black community, violating their rights.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry...by-police-america_us_577da633e4b0c590f7e7fb17 Based on The Counted’s data, black males between the ages of 15 and 34 were nine times more likely to be killed by police officers than any other demographic. https://www.washingtonpost.com/nati...94563e-fa74-11e5-80e4-c381214de1a3_story.html Black men accounted for about 40 percent of the unarmed people fatally shot by police and, when adjusted by population, were seven times as likely as unarmed white men to die from police gunfire I consider your "sorry my google is broke"-credits to be spend.
Cops massacre unarmed black people 7 times more often. And yet we still have people who think there is nothing odd about it. It's just like the cops, they shrug it off, and go back massacring. That's where the problem lies and why cops are getting killed. https://www.washingtonpost.com/nati...94563e-fa74-11e5-80e4-c381214de1a3_story.html When you realize that armed and unarmed black people get killed far and far more often than white people. When you realize that black people get systematically longer sentences than white people in the same situation. When you realize that black people get out of jail on probation less quickly than white people. Oh yeah. The police and justice department in the US is absolutely racist. The figures clearly point that out. #whiteprivilege
The police and justice department have always been racist toward blacks since 1620. Don't expect then to change in less than another 9,600 years.
The number of unarmed blacks shot by police in 2015 was 38; for whites it was 32. You don't need to be STEM major to understand that this isn't a rate of 7 to 1. https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/national/police-shootings/ And we don't think there isn't anything odd about that because their neighborhoods have a crime issue. Bad information is bad. Do better research next time. Blacks are killed at a rate of 2.5 per 1 million; whiles 1.7 per 1 million. That is a gap of .7 That isn't far more often. We've already studied this and we've already found that other variables are taken into account; such as blacks having a longer rap sheet than white offenders. We've also studied the Recidivism rates among whites and blacks, and blacks are much higher. The only thing you've shown is that intelligence is definitely not a white priviledge.
You didn't answer my question. Is 9 times more likely equal to less than 1% or more than 1%. Why are you afraid of giving a truthful answer? Plus, black males are 18 times more likely to kill a cop than be killed by a cop. So if you are going to use the word "frequently" as you did, it is safe to say black males are killing cops much more "frequently" than cops are killing black males. I know you didn't take any of this into consideration as you were framing the cops as the bad guys and the black males as the victims, but facts matter. For every black male that is killed by a cop without justification, I hope that justice is swift and decisive. Just keep in mind, for every black male killed by a cop, 18 cops are killed by a black male. Where is your outrage there? Also, your statistics for black males being killed by cops ignore circumstance, such as accidental killings by stray gunfire, self defense when they are being attacked and challenged for their weapon and cases where the black male is armed and posing a grave threat. The only way to give accurate statistics here would be to take each and every death on a case by case basis and examine the circumstances around the shooting, but you took the easy way out and just decided all deaths of black males at the hands of a cop are unjustified and should be cause for civil unrest and retaliation. That's ok though, others are paying attention even though you aren't.
Standing in front of a judge as a first offender instead of a repeat offender is not white privilege. Behavior while serving a sentence has a high impact on how soon you get paroled and being black is not some sort of inhibitor to good behavior while being incarcerated. It is a choice and has nothing to do with privilege. You have been brainwashed by the media into believing that being white is some golden ticket for gaming the legal system. You should wake up from your coma and open your eyes to what is going on in the world. You are taking an extremist view with the little data that you have because you formed your opinion before you looked at the data. #whiteguilt
I avoid such places that are high crime areas where the community at large allow them to be criminal safe zones. That doesn't mean that I don't go in or through them sometimes. In fact my wife and our church and other groups have gone into the nearby hoods to cook food, bring clothes and supplies and many other acts of charity. I used to live in now gang infested areas of Los Angeles as a kid until we fled for the hills long ago before they deteriorated to their present state. I've been all over the country and in 11 different countries over the years, but why would any decent person allow gangs to flourish in their own backyard?
Well who exactly are these "out of the woodwork/underground" how did they manifest themselves and what exactly are you claiming they have done?
I don't see a spokesperson for the group. It seems they have many. They are not an organized group. If they are to be taken seriously, they need 1 leader to emerge and get behind, or they will just be a ragtag group with no real direction, as they are now, IMO. They have a website, a mission statement, but it really goes no further than that.
Why would a sane, just person WANT to live in such a violent hood? I sure wouldn't. I do not live in an armchair and I have gone to school and even worked in and near very violent hoods. I believe my understanding of such places is 10 times greater than yours. Here is something you won't read in USA Today or see on MSNBC: An African-American police officer from Florida has laid bare his heart in a powerful way. Pundits have been talking non-stop since a new wave of sensationalized stories about so-called trigger happy cops hit the news last week. Brutal reality hits officer Jay Stalien in the face every single day and he poured out his feelings on Facebook in a riveting post. According to his profile, Stalien works in Riviera Beach, a city that despite its exotic-sounding name, is known for its significant rate of black on black crime. The post contains piercing words from Stalien and should be read in its entirety. Here are a few highlights: http://www.infowars.com/riveting-po...w-honesty-and-every-american-needs-to-see-it/
Most are like some that post here. All things black is bad. A couple were banned just yesterday. It is those types. Spewing hate in their words. They are actually worse than the BLM people they rant on about. They do nothing to add civility to the topic. Many people will get caught up and say things not entirely meant or true to their nature. But I've seen many threads started over the last 2 weeks that are about 85% lies. Hate only begets hate.
How many are these most and what is your proof it is because Obama is black and not simply a bad president? How so? And BLM does? Well go preach that to the BLM crowd and black communities in general.
The data for the entire country says you're dead wrong and you respond with Ferguson? My point has been proven.
