Move those goalposts nick, move em!!!
It IS funny you say that while I never did anything remotely of the sort and you're literally defending shooting cops

I wouldn't call it 2. 1 of them was from over 2 months ago during a no-knock narcotics search warrant. 3 officers went in to conduct the search warrant and were fired upon, they returned fire and she was killed.nick wrote: ↑Tue Jun 02, 2020 12:21 pmyou know cops killed a black protester in Louisville right? Get this.. the man was known for giving cops free food and was peaceful and they shot him in the back.

You left out a couple significant details that the police went to the wrong address and had the suspect the warrant was for already in police custody at the time of them doing that no knock warrant and killing that woman.GeorgesGoons wrote: ↑Tue Jun 02, 2020 12:34 pmI wouldn't call it 2. 1 of them was from over 2 months ago during a no-knock narcotics search warrant. 3 officers went in to conduct the search warrant and were fired upon, they returned fire and she was killed.nick wrote: ↑Tue Jun 02, 2020 12:21 pmyou know cops killed a black protester in Louisville right?

And you also forgot to mention that the cops and national guard were being shot at in the David McAtae shooting. Both cops and national guard returned fire. They haven't determined if McAtae was involved int he shooting.
Just wanted to put out all the facts out there since you make it sound as if it was cold blooded murder.
I just skimmed the article.

Until he hits them with a defamation of character lawsuit. I would not put that past himshel311 wrote: ↑Tue Jun 02, 2020 3:10 pm If you go to Twitter and search "racist" under People, you get a bunch of twitter handles with the word "Racist" in them.
But the very first person at the top of the search is...Donald Trump's verified account.
Twitter is just trolling the F out of Trump right now. I can't say the stuff they've been doing to him is right, but it's funny as hell.![]()
100% this, glad you found the information and I didn't have to.shel311 wrote: ↑Tue Jun 02, 2020 7:04 pm Population isn't as relevant as who is being stopped by cops and for what reason.
Studies show the most common correlation between being shot by cops is violent crime rates. In counties where most white people commit violent crimes, more white people are killed by cops. Same in reverse for black people.
When you adjust for the most common correlation in violent crimes, the numbers are pretty close,as they should be but I think it was like 4 out of 10k white people vs 3 out of 10k black people killed based on violent crime rates.
This is 100% truth!
Over the last 40 years we have seen a massive expansion of the scope and intensity of policing. Every social problem in poor and non-white communities has been turned over to the police to manage. The schools don’t work; let’s create school policing. Mental health services are decimated; let’s send police. Overdoses are epidemic; let’s criminalize people who share drugs. Young people are caught in a cycle of violence and despair; let’s call them superpredators and put them in prison for life.
Police have also become more militarized. The Federal 1033 program, the Department of Justice’s “Cops Office,” and homeland security grants have channeled billions of dollars in military hardware into American police departments to advance their “war on crime” mentality. A whole generation of police officers have been given “warrior” training that teaches them to see every encounter with the public as potentially their last, leading to a hostile attitude towards those policed and the unnecessary killing of people falsely considered a threat, such as the 12-year-old Tamir Rice, killed for holding a toy gun in an Ohio park.
The alternative is not more money for police training programs, hardware or oversight. It is to dramatically shrink their function. We must demand that local politicians develop non-police solutions to the problems poor people face. We must invest in housing, employment and healthcare in ways that directly target the problems of public safety. Instead of criminalizing homelessness, we need publicly financed supportive housing; instead of gang units, we need community-based anti-violence programs, trauma services and jobs for young people; instead of school police we need more counselors, after-school programs, and restorative justice programs
