Why are you afraid to speak the truth? It’s a fact that blacks commit the most crimes while only being 13% of the population. That’s just the cold hard truth.
So in the past decade, the only people American cops have shot are black people?


If you think the difference between Norway killing 0 and the US killing 10k people in the past decade is all because of black people, you might be a huge racist.

Wait a minute...I thought y'all were claiming that more white people get shot by police than black.


If that's the case, your point is non-existent.

Yep.

Posters on this board: Cops shoot more white people than black people in America

Also same posters in this thread: Black people are the biggest reason cops kill people in America

It’s a factual statement. What’s your issue with it?

The issue is pointing out police shoot more white people than black but also saying black people are the reason why cops kill citizens in America.

It's not rocket science to see the issue with those 2 statements.

Only 10 Norwegian police officers killed in the line of duty since 1945.

Calm down Nancy I’m not saying it’s the only reason.

Perhaps you’re trying to narrow it down too much. The issue is not black people; it’s what was mentioned above about their type of policing (and results) not being possible in a cultural melting pot. People in this country are showing right now that when people are different from them, be it skin color, religious beliefs, income, cultural background, etc, they simply cannot get along indefinitely. Someone, somewhere, in some group of people is going to feel as though they aren’t getting a fair shake and the next thing you know, you have what we have now: A nation divided, most likely irreparably. Our population in the US is not getting closer. Since 9/11, our society has found itself on multiple divergent paths.

That’s not racism, that’s observation.

Personally, I believe the main reason cops kill so many people here is because so many people here have weapons. It’s a freedom most here enjoy, but it’s a double-edged sword, for sure.

There also appears to be respect for law enforcement there.

Here in the U.S. not so much.

All you have to do is look at this message board at the amount of shite talked about law enforcement.

Oslo has huge issues with rapes committed by Arab and African immigrants. They just flat out do not police in those areas, Sweden is the same in that regard.

The maximum sentence over there for any crime is only 21 years as well.

Just a completely different world compared to here.

Sorry for the cut and paste below but, ...

How much crying and looting would occur if we were living under these fines?

Norway
Do you make an annual income of $30,000 a year? If you’re caught speeding in Norway, expect to pay a $3,000 fine on your ticket. Norway levies a fine of 10% of your annual income for speeding tickets. Alongside the fine, Norwegian law imposes a mandatory minimum 18-day jail sentence for speeds deemed excessive.

Finland
Finland levies speeding fines based upon the annual income of the speedster in question. Jussi Salonoja, heir to a European meatpacking company, earned $11.5 million in 2002. After being caught speeding 50 mph in a 25 mph zone, Salonoja was fined $200,000.

Switzerland
The fine imposed for a speeding ticket in Switzerland is not only based on income, but factors in the velocity at which the offender was traveling. A 37-year-old man was driving his $200,000 Mercedes SLS AMG when he was clocked traveling 186 mph. The driver had not been clocked by numerous speed cameras along the highway because they were incapable of clocking any speed higher than 125 mph. The vehicle was impounded and the driver now faces a fine of over $800,000. That’s four times the value of the car!

I’d love to see stats on their speeding infractions.

Let’s remember, we’ve got it pretty great here and we’re already tearing shite apart.
