Wanna-B-Fanboy Posted May 30, 2020 Report Share Posted May 30, 2020 Just now, The Unknown Poster said: There are reports of white supremacists creating a lot of violence in these protests. Why? Because they want violence. They want a race war they believe they will win. 40 people arrested in the Minnesota riot have ties to white supremacist groups and are all from out of town and the district.... https://www.courthousenews.com/minnesota-officials-link-arrested-looters-to-white-supremacist-groups/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigg jay Posted May 30, 2020 Report Share Posted May 30, 2020 1 minute ago, wanna-b-fanboy said: That is true but misleading. The population of the USA is comprised of (as of 2016) 61.27% of White people, 17.79% of Latinos, and 13.31% Black people. So yeah, there should be more White people shot by cops. The ratio should be roughly 6:1 - it isn't. It's closer to 2:1. In 2017, 457 White people, 223 Black people and 179 Hispanic people were shot and killed by police officers. That does not reflect the 61.27%/13.31%/17.79% ratio at all... there is a HUGE discrepancy in police shootings.... 100% After looking at some government studies, a couple of other things that stood out to me: Black people shot by police were more likely to be unarmed than white people were & the fatality rate for blacks was nearly 3 times higher than for whites.

These numbers don't even include incidents like this one, since it didn't involve a shooting. Just I guess at the moment but I'd bet expanded numbers that include non-shooting deaths make the numbers even worse. Wanna-B-Fanboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one is talking about the more than 100,000 USA citzens who died of Covid-19 as a direct result of how mishandled and bungled the response was... Mission Accomplished... One would think that with all these mass gatherings of protest, this will not bode well with flattening any curve. Trump and his cult will then blame these ‘thugs’ for the virus.

SpeedFlex27 Posted May 31, 2020 Report Share Posted May 31, 2020 The only way real change will happen is if Trump is defeated in November along with his lapdog GOP governors who follow his every move. If they all get back in then it will be status quo for another 4 years with blacks & police. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah people can talk about this bubbling under the surface in America for ever, and that's 100% true. However the current administration actively encourages that bigotry and racism and is actively emboldening these **** heels. That's a huge problem. These people need to be shamed into changing their ways or at least shamed into hiding their true feelings. Not told by the president that they are very fine people.
