    Folks claiming there is institutionalized racism when it comes to the police yet they have yet to prove thier claim. Here are the stats of people killed by police by race:

    https://www.statista.com/statistics/585152/people-shot-to-death-by-us-police-by-race/

    Looks like more whites are killed by police than blacks. But even if you take into account a per capita basis, there is no proof that blacks are killed because the cop is "racist". There is no way to prove that. Besides, correlation does not equal causation.

    If someone can prove it then do so. If not then anyone spouting this nonsense should just shut their mouth or whatever orifice they are talking out of.

    Well, Mike Bloomberg said he instructed the police of NYC to focus their stop and frisk efforts to minority communities.

    Honestly, we keep hearing how blacks make up "13% of the population but receive 33% of the killing by cops"... What they leave out that is very apparent is that these police killings happen in democrat cities, where the population of blacks is far higher than 33%. Baltimore, Ferguson, St Louis, Chicago, Detroit, NYC, ATL and so on have populations of blacks over 50%. Not only that, the police never being held accountable, that's the fault of the democrats as well. People who cow tow and give into the police unions who negotiate for internal reviews for the bad behaviors of their police.

    Excellent points!

    And how many blacks have run ins with the cops? Whose fault is that?

    There are many variables here that hide the truth: Racism amongst cops is a myth.

    I see no one spewing the race baiter's propaganda can prove otherwise.

    You would think anyone who believes so much in racism would bring the evidence and prove it. Why hasn't that happened?

    Because the OP is iron clad and cannot be disputed.

    Silly doombug. On Planet Prog the Current Truth™ is reality.

    Conspiracy theories and hoaxes fabricated whole cloth, baseless accusations, bogus narratives, false pretexts, phony pretenses...This is the currency of the Left and it's been on full display the past week.

    Were it not for all the death, destruction and discord they've incited this would be laughable, but it's not - it's deadly serious. Their recklessness and irresponsibility is outright dangerous and lethal. It's cost people their lives and millions of dollars in property damage and lost income. Cash-strapped cities that are reeling from the Wu Flu and the toll it's taken on their economies are now having to squander precious resources to prevent rioters from destroying their communities.

    It's SICK.

    According to the U.S.Census Bureau WHITES ARE 76.6% of our population, BLACKS ARE 13.4% of our population Translation there are more than FIVE WHITES for each black???
    For Black and White police killings to be PROPORTIANALLY equal there would need to be FIVE WHITE DEATHS FOR EACH BLACK DEATH
    Not the TWO TO ONE YOUR GRAPH SHOWS!!!!!! You are proving that black deaths are disproportionally high compared to whites.​

    And as I stated and is widely known: Correlation does not equal causation.

    You cannot take a statistic and assign whatever meaning you want. Where is the proof it is because of racism?

    And thanks for your response.

    What is your point with this pic? There are a dozen kkk members? Did these guys burn down the south this weekend? Were they in ATL or Tampa or Jacksonville? Didn't hear much from MS, or AL or LA. If these people did, with proof, start the riots, why are leftists celebrities looking to bail them out of jail?

    Nazis are still left wing, just because they are racists doesn't make their brand of socialism automatically "right".

    You know why they have a donkey as their mascot? Cause they were the ones who denied freed blacks their 40 acres and a mule.

    So if Floyd was murdered by police for some reason other than racism, what is that reason? Where is the proof?

    You should get your eyes checked if those look the same to you.
    But here is racists for $300. I'm sure you recognize this one.

    There really are a lot of examples of racism if you look.

    Blacks die in disproportionate numbers due to Covid 19. Should we say Covid 19 is racist? No, that would be stupid. Perhaps there are other factors such as underlying comorbidities. So whose fault is that? Are racist cops shoving fried foods and donuts down the throats of blacks? That would be silly to say.

    So why is anyone buying into the racist cop myth?

    Or it might be this guy.

    David Duke, the former KKK grand wizard, is unambiguous about what Saturday’s alt-right and neo-Nazi rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, means to him: It’s the fulfillment of President Donald Trump’s vision for America.

    “We are determined to take our country back,” Duke said from the rally, calling it a “turning point.” “We are going to fulfill the promises of Donald Trump. That’s what we believed in. That’s why we voted for Donald Trump, because he said he’s going to take our country back.”
