This is the key element - I have always thought "the talk" black parents (moms?) have with their children. I'd be willing to bet that it is heavily slanted towards = don't let them push you around, you don't have to do anything they say, they're just picking on you because you're black."
If the black community truly feels they are targeted by police and have constant “Talks” about police to their kids and mothers fear for their children bc of police...then why the push back when being stopped by police. If I truly believed the police target me based off my skin and wanted to kill me..,I sure as hell would argue and provoke an altercation.

Why even bring color into it?
CV killed 500,000 in a year = 0.1487% of our population
Cops killed how many citizens last year?

The liberals thinking 55-60% isn't surprising, but goes to show JUST how brainwashed they are and how much the media has misled them.
On one hand, you have to think they're mindless drones that don't research for themselves; on the other hand, you kinda feel like their thinking is justified by how much media and political attention any ONE killing of a black man gets. There's been riots and cities burned over months for the police killing a black man, you'd think it was MUCH more prevalent if you weren't informed.
I'm a federal law enforcement officer and I actually thought the number was LOWER than 25%. Regardless I usually side with the officers involved, I don't care if it's a black, white, brown, purple, yellow, green, blue, or pink person on the shooting or receiving end. There are a few exceptions to this, of course - and I will always condemn an officer that made an outright stupid or negligent mistake.
My surprise with this poll is the "very conservative" folks that think it's anywhere near 45%. And why are they that much higher than those that just consider themselves regular "conservative"?

I think a lot of that "talk" has to do with maintaining "street cred" = don't do anything that will make you look compliant - the 'street' will crucify you as a "wannabe white."

This is exactly what happened in the Korryn Gaines case a few years ago in Maryland. During a traffic stop, she proudly live-streamed her “talk” with her toddler to “fight the police.” Then later, back at home, she live-streamed herself loading her shotgun while the cops were knocking on her door. She asked her kid, who was 3 or 4, “why are the cops here?,” and the poor kid meekly said, “they here to kill us.” Shootout ensued. She got killed, and (of course) her family was awarded $37 million.

Just today had the argument about this.. The Per Capita is BS.. Stats always favor the smaller group and agendas.. It's like saying: There are more Black millionaires than White millionaires.. Per Capita..
