Sorry, that was total black homicide victims. Number is still probably likely much higher. Got my number from a WSJ article.

I did because that's what the protesting is all about.

The black population in America won’t get it right until they start putting an emphasis on having a nuclear family and education. In a nutshell they need to stop worrying about being ridiculed for trying to be white.

Yep, that's it. He's a good guy and I was amazed at how he thought that was racism. He's been programmed by our educational system. SAD

The left will NEVER discuss this as the real problem. They have no leadership in the home.

The left NEVER discusses the real issues, they always have to cover up and deceive people with what their programs are actually designed to accomplish.

Why does the News Media ignore fact and reality? Political Agenda based on Globalism and Socialism.

The most ruthless Cops on the beat are those within the black neighborhoods. I've got news for a lot of people. The majority of those cops are not WHITE. They are Black and the attitude is "We have lived within this festering pool all of our lives. We know what the neighborhood is like."

I work in the worst neighborhoods of Birmingham, Montgomery, Tuscaloosa and Selma. When a home owner walks around a house with me, we tend to talk quite a lot. I'm curious that way. I see the greatest amount of fear in those neighborhoods have nothing to do with the Police or Whitey trolling through. The fear is from the same color people outside of those neighborhoods ....Different tribes if you will.

I realized something that forces all of us to be unified. Quite by accident. Just south of Tropicana Field in St Petersburg, Fl is a highway spur going downtown, a City Park then the housing projects ...

When you are laying face down in the dirt, two teams all black players, laying in the same dirt. Every fan in the stands in the same dirt and you are wishing for a hole to crawl into, while bullets are flying overhead ....Everyone suddenly is unified ..regardless of color. Saturday night youth football games, drug buy gone bad and shots fired for about two minutes.

I can agree that even when statistically normalized this is likely true. And this needs to end. As soon as possible.
The problem is, one incident drives national perception for years. Just as one incidence of terrorism (by design) drives perception of an entire people

If you think cops aren’t unjustly murdering white people and getting away with it, please watch the uncensored Daniel Shaver video where the cop is playing simon says with him as he sobs and pleads for his life, and then the cop unloads on him with a rifle, later to be acquitted. Nobody protested for that one. 



That is the million dollar question. Why did white people allow the police to murder this sobbing man begging for his life? They left his wife and 2 daughters fatherless. He was acquitted and allowed to have his job back. He was allowed to retire with $2,500 a month pension for PTSD due to blowing this man away.

Why are whites so willing to overlook government tyranny.

It seems like white conservatives are very comfortable with the tyranny.

I've travelled to China and they are incredibly law abiding. Even without monotheistic religion they have a deep sense of duty to their families and respect authority. Those numbers don't surprise me at all.

7 to 10 million Americans who are deviants, who are only concerned with their own personal pleasure at the expense of others and have low cognitive abilities does not surprise me either.

A culture of liberalism and individualism has a lot of benefits but it also has its costs.

Our justice system is more lenient today then it has ever been in history.

What part of China were you in because this was not my experience at all. Theft and pick pocketing was rampant.

My wife's phone was stolen the 2nd day we were there. The feeling we got was that theft was common and the victims of theft should have known better or been more careful.

I also work in fraud investigation and wouldn't believe me if I told you who we spend all day trying to stop from stealing. Its mostly Asians. Specifically South Asians, but the Chinese steal a lot too.

I find them to be way less moral than Americans.

Thanks for participating

I think the problem that is ignored in all of this is the rate of black crime. For instance, when you say...

quote:

In Ferguson the DOJ stated that blacks were more than twice as likely to be searched once pulled over


The cops are looking for black suspects more because people are calling reporting black crime. For example, Michael Brown. The store owner called the cops saying a black man just stole cigarettes from his store. Cop goes looking for someone of that description, finds Michael brown with stolen cigarettes. Michael Brown does that day. Does Michael Brown die that day if he doesn’t steal cigarettes?

The cop wasn’t out looking for a black man to harass, but I’m sure they occasionally stop the wrong one.

Every action has numerous ripple effects throughout society. So when you see crime riddled inner cities this is the result.

Would you believe that poor people commit more violent crimes, and that a higher percentage of black people are poor?

Would you believe that higher income inequality is shown to be linked to higher out of wedlock birth rates?

Pretty sure black leaders have spoken about black poverty, and we’re seeing the effects of that poverty

One answer might be to wean them off welfare and food stamps which dimocratix have vehemently opposed since its start. People will continue to sit on their porches and do nothing to advance themselves when they know they have steady money coming in. And they’ll continue to have more babies if it makes the checks bigger, and the more babies, the deeper in the hole they go.

The average white person isn't aware of the significance of this issue for two reasons:

1. Lack of intellectual curiosity on their own part.

2. Complete unwillingness to cover this in the (primarily) left-wing media.

Though #1 is regrettable, #2 is what tends to drive national awareness.

Simple question: do you agree?
