I agree.
Unfortunately, the AA community thinks differently.
Don't be fooled by traditional and social media. You don't know what the "AA community" thinks.

Actions speak louder than words. Their actions say a lot.

Yeah but again, there are 38 million black people in this country. They're a diverse group. FFS there are black officers arresting many of these protesters. To lump them together into the "AA community" is wrong, and it helps perpetuate racism. I'm not suggesting it is inherently racist, but when people see the actions of a few and then extrapolate that to the feelings of an entire race, it is a step in the wrong direction for this country.

I guess you think they should just be quiet and happy with what they have.
There were 511 officers killed in felonious incidents by 540 offenders from 2004 to 2013, according to FBI reports. Among the total offenders, 52% were white, and 43% were black.
From 1980-2008 blacks were responsible for committing 52.5% of homicides.
So ~15% of the population is responsible for 43% of police deaths and over half of the homicides in this country. This means blacks are more likely to have encounters with police and police are going to be more wary about encounters with blacks.
Considering all of this along with the fact that only ~25% of those killed by cops are black, then yes I think they should just be quiet and happy with what they have because it could be far, far worse.

The police in America are like an amateur army. Takes 6 months of training and then you're judged differently when you kill someone.
You do know that Basic Training in the Army is only like 8 weeks don't you? And Police never stop training. But again, Don't let facts get in the way of your moronic narrative filled with opinion and emotion.

Alton Sterling did not get what he deserved. He deserved to be tackled and subdued, however. It really looks bad on those officers that they (or one of them) used such excessive force.
He had a reputation for illegally carrying a firearm and a rap sheet a mile long. Don't think for one second that the two cops didn't know exactly who they were dealing with.
And he was tackled and refused to be subdued, reached towards his gun and that is what got him killed. He absolutely got what he deserved.

Kinda like what BLM is doing to cops right?

then why have more whites been killed by the police then blacks?

That's because, proportional to their numbers, blacks are far more likely to commit a crime.

Its fun to make up stuff. I'm not going to repost the statistics that show you are wrong because you will just ignore them, like you probably did the first hundred times it has been pointed out.
Posted on 7/11/16 at 11:57 am to Layabout

Don't double down on your ignorance.

You are delusional
Edit: There are actual numbers that blow apart your whole act, and you call me ignorant?

You just refuse to accept that there is a large number of African Americans that feels exactly how you claim they don't.
