    In USSR, Jews were likewise accused of being a disproportional threat to Soviet Society. Many minorities suffer from the prejudice of the Majority.

    I think what people should be focusing on is why blacks are turning to crime. This is the problem and where the black community needs help.

    Be it better schools, more job opportunities, organisations to get people away from gangs e.t.c. Pour money into these areas and make real change.

    Im not accusing anyone or seeing blacks as a threat. I'm just looking at statistics.

    You don't agree?

    Yes, just like the left is accusing police of being the threat today. Neither are true of course. And luckily, in today's world, we can look past the propaganda, and find all the true statistics we need to make up our own minds.

    I do agree to some extent this is why both whites and blacks that are loud and aggressive sounding\looking have a harder time with cops - I think we all know these kinda people, as they put our hair on end as well as it causes the adrenaline to run, but in all those cases, remaining calm 99.9999% of the time will get you out of the situation alive - cops should try to remain calm too, but at the first sign of physical violence, their adrenalin based fight or flight response is kicked off as well - and they may make a mistake in that state, and that could mean one is shot

    that said, some cops do try to escalate situations too, they should be fired when caught doing so - all cops should wear cop cams and a third party should review them - maybe wear two cop cams, if both fail 3 times with no sign of mechanical issues on both cameras, you're fired as you must be hiding something as no way that redundancy fails 3 separate times just as something questionable happens

    Discriminating against a minority for acts of some individuals is wrong. It is similar to discrimination of Jews in USSR.

    By 1968, most Jews rejected Communism. All Jews were discriminated. It was not as blatant as Segregation in contemporary USA.

    It's not discrimination lol. All I'm saying is if you have two groups of people A and B.

    If group A are committing at a higher percentage than group B. Then group A be having more run ins with the cops than group B. If group A are having more run ins with the cops it will increase groups A's chances of being killed by cops.

    It doesn't mean cops are targeting A over B. It just means cops deal with A more frequently.

    Do you understand this?

    There is no justification for Racism as there is no justification for Anti-Semitism. Both are evil.

    Although I agree with your statement. It's completely unrelated to the point you are addressing. You're just saying random things lol.

    Nobody is justifying racism here. Just pointing out that the myth of police targeting blacks, is just that. A myth. I agree there is no justification for any “Ism” be it race, religion, gender, sexual preference, etc. But the unfair persecution of the police needs to stop. That is a ridiculous hard job that doesn’t pay well. It does not need a media bias painting them as racists when statistical data shows that it’s not true.

    Sadly, police do target African Americans disproportionately. African Americans are more likely to be convicted and receive longer prison sentences for the same offense.

    Historically, White Nationalism targeted all minorities -- including African Americans and Jews.

    That doesn’t mean the cops were wrong in doing so.

    Sadly police target the perpetrators of the crimes. Race has nothing to do with it.

    Longer sentences? That has nothing to do with the police. They just arrest the perps. It’s the Courts and lawyers that have to do with sentencing.

    I would like to see your statistics on that, because that would be pretty big news.

    USA has an extremely harsh Police and Justice System.

    It is even more harsh toward minorities.

    All this shows is that Blacks get stopped by the police more often than Whites do. It does NOT mean that Whites aren't committing any crimes.
    Racial profiling is what they call it.

    In 1960s, during the Cold War and a threat of Thermonuclear War, Soviet Jews disproportionately leaned toward USA. In 1983, I also waited for emigration.

    Sadly, all Jews, even Soviet Patriots were seen as traitors by many people.
