So one incident here shows why black people don't trust the police. That sure seems like a whole lot of stereotyping and generalization

Now, let's not pretend this is the only one.

And, biggest problem in the video?

The fricking female cop yelling "be an adult".

THAT is THE problem on the police force. Bad apples will exist. It's the OTHER cops who OK it, don't report and do nothing about it that are the problem.

I can agree with this. If all these cops were so good anyways they wouldn't allow it. The measure of "good" has never been lower.

The socioeconomic factor HAS to be accounted for when discussing crime statistics, IMO. It just has to. It is SO easy to fall into the correlation/causation trap when one narrows his focus to race. The correlation between socioeconomic status and crime rate isn't as sexy to focus on as race, but that's almost always the biggest driver.

People are products of their environments.

Yea that'll happen when 50% of violent crime is perpetrated by 6-7% of the population. You have a peanut sized brain my god.

Sadly, yes. Many blacks literally believe they commit no more crimes than anyone else, they just get more police attention.

The number of dead on black streets begs to differ.

I can agree with this as well. Now we are getting somewhere.

If we get to the WHY of them being placed there, then it really gets interesting.

So your belief is that black people are genetically predisposed to commit more crime. Gotcha.

oh i agree, in the general discussion

but that shifts it from a racial discussion to a SES discussion, which furthers my point (and i didn't want to take too many steps in a post where i was talking about messy argument construction, lol)

oh i agree. black people don't have issues with crime b/c they are black

that's nonsense spewed by the most ignorant of ignorants (and is legit racism)

No one said that

The argument isn't that black people commit more crimes than other races just because they are black.

60% of the population accounted for 92% of the searches. Does anyone not see the issue with this?
What if the 60% population was committing 92% of the crime? Should the cops arrest whites just to appease you?


13% of the population makes up 90% of the NBA. Does this blatant racism not seem like an issue to you?
