of course whites are more likely to be into weird sexual shyt. i know we have a monopoly on weird psycho crimes.
that lady they just found locked in a container for 2 months and chained by her ankles... you think i had any doubt that that the guy behind that was a cac
there are racist cops just like there are racist people in all walks of life. but if there's a group of people that ARE being killed by cops at a higher percentage rate in proportion to their population than maybe... just maybe... it's because they commit more crimes and find themselves in more situations with the police. and not because there is an entire system out to get them.
select instances of bad cops doing the wrong thing doesn't change the facts across the board. the majority of people killed by police last year were WHITE.
At least you finally revealed your true intentions.
Young black males in recent years were at a far greater risk of being shot dead by police than their white counterparts – 21 times greater, according to a ProPublica analysis of federally collected data on fatal police shootings.
The 1,217 deadly police shootings from 2010 to 2012 captured in the federal data show that blacks, age 15 to 19, were killed at a rate of 31.17 per million, while just 1.47 per million white males in that age range died at the hands of police.
One way of appreciating that stark disparity, ProPublica's analysis shows, is to calculate how many more whites over those three years would have had to have been killed for them to have been at equal risk. The number is jarring – 185, more than one per week.
ProPublica's risk analysis on young males killed by police certainly seems to support what has been an article of faith in the African American community for decades: Blacks are being killed at disturbing rates when set against the rest of the American population.
The black boys killed can be disturbingly young. There were
41 teens
14 years or younger reported killed by police from 1980 to 2012 ii.
27 of them were black iii;
8 were white iv;
4 were Hispanic v and
1 was Asian vi.
That's not to say officers weren't killing white people. Indeed, some
44 percent of all those killed by police across the 33 years were white.
White or black, though, those slain by police tended to be roughly the same age. The average age of blacks killed by police was
30. The average age of whites was
35.
Who is killing all those black men and boys?
Mostly white officers. But in hundreds of instances, black officers, too. Black officers account for a little more than
10 percent of all fatal police shootings. Of those they kill, though,
78 percent were black.
White officers, given their great numbers in so many of the country's police departments, are well represented in all categories of police killings. White officers killed
91 percent of the whites who died at the hands of police. And they were responsible for
68 percent of the people of color killed. Those people of color represented
46 percent of all those killed by white officers.
In their study, there are stats which show that the difference is not related to a higher volume of crime.

An
independent analysis of Washington Post data on police killings found that, “when factoring in threat level, black Americans who are fatally shot by police are, in fact, less likely to be posing an imminent lethal threat to the officers at the moment they are killed than white Americans fatally shot by police.” According to one of the report’s authors,
“The only thing that was significant in predicting whether someone shot and killed by police was unarmed was whether or not they were black. . . . Crime variables did not matter in terms of predicting whether the person killed was unarmed.”
Aren’t more white people than black people killed by police? Yes, but no.

- Prison sentences of black men were nearly 20% longer than those of white men for similar crimes in recent years, an analysis by the U.S. Sentencing Commission found.
