Because we like to make fun of the great civil rights leader (in his own mind), LeBron James.

Black people are allowed and even encouraged to openly discriminate against whitey in today's America.

But I'm sure you're not just willfully ignoring that.

Ah! Thanks for the heads up. I feel a little silly now for putting that much time into a post if that's the case lol, but the number of bigot nutjobs getting upvotes in here is still a little surprising.

Do you have any statistics to show if black people are more likely to fight with police and resist arrest than white people?

I'm genuinely asking this question because I don't know, and it is probably nigh on impossible to sort through clickbait headlines and such to find this information.

Same reason this post is going to reap the downvotes.

1. Making fun of LeBron.

2. Retarded leftists continue to parrot the line that black people are victims with no opportunity and white supremacy is the greatest threat to America, when the stats CLEARLY show otherwise.

Black/hip hop culture is a stain on humanity, but this is just about the only place on the internet where you'll find people who are actually willing to say that.

I’ve never taken it as anyone being serious and we don’t have the following a LeBron James does, and he means it when he says it. So we rag on him.

Reality is you are more likely to get killed by someone of your own race. Everyone should know that and that’s what should actually be pushed. The Truth.

I agree with most of you point. However,

quote:

Unarmed black people per capita are killed by police at a rate that's roughly 3 times higher than white people


Needs normalized for the frequency of high risk interactions.

Police are much, much more likely per capita encounter a black person in a high risk stop. Plus the black person even on a normal stop or encounter is much more likely to escalate the situation.

2) It's also true that the probability of a white person getting murdered by a black person at some point this year is so statistically low – roughly 1-in-450,000 (info in same link) – that if it's something that you seriously dwell on or worry about, you probably need cognitive behavioral therapy.



What's the likelihood of becoming the victim of a serious crime in a place like New Orleans?

Obviously the phrase is delivered with a mocking tone, but I do think once you expand beyond murder and factor in the footprint of this website, the idea that if you're concerned about being victimized by a black criminal you need CBT is a little bit of a reach.

2) It's also true that the probability of an unarmed black person being killed by a law enforcement officer at some point this year is so statistically low – roughly 1-in-2.5 million (info in link below) – that if it's something that a black person seriously dwells on or worry about, they probably need cognitive behavioral therapy.
But cases that weren't actually murders, like George Floyd, are being counted as murders so that makes this statistic, along with all your other statistics, total BS.
