Cops kill blacks 2.3 times more than whites.Blacks kill cops 3.5x more than whites

[BoutPractice]

Wait, are those quotes supposed to make MLK look bad?

[Long Duck Dong]

No outrage or denial of this fact?

So, police kill more blacks, statistically. Outrage, protests, calls for investigations and terminations.

Blacks statistically kill more police? *crickets*

Well the issue with cops killing unarmed black men is implicit-racism. Implicit-racism is a bit different from the general racism we all know of, it happens subconsciously and most dont realize it happens.

For instance, if you consider that blacks are more dangerous because they on average, commit more crimes, then you are subject to implicit racism. If cops view black men as more threatening and more likely to pull out a gun than other races, they are more likely to shoot black men than white/asian men.

However, implicit racism is common among everyone, even among blacks vs blacks. Studies have shown that, not only whites consider black men to be more threatening and crime-prone, but many blacks feel the same way as well. Replacing a white cop by a black cop wont necessarily stop the killing of unarmed black men, so long as blacks are viewed as more violent in nature and more likely to pull out a gun.

So how to solve this problem? I have no idea, I am not a scientist after all. The ideal solution is for blacks to commit less crimes, so the stereotype of blacks being more violent and crime-prone will go away, effectively ending the implicit racism against blacks. But will this ever happen? I dunno, only time will tell.

No they're to prove that Nick Young is an idiot.

Implicit racism is built through observation and experiences in life.


You will never actually stop that occurance when you have widespread multiculturalism.

The rap music represents a lot of blacks who live in the projects and the struggle to get out, I get that.


The millions who grow up in the projects will always feel like the white man is to blame.

If you or I had a similar upbringing in a white ghetto, you would probably feel a sense of resentment towards black people living a better life.


The problem is, that no matter how much you tell them the facts, they will only see their own living conditions of their family and point to the white man as the cause of it.

Well in a general sense you are correct, but this specific implicit bias that blacks are more dangerous/threatening than whites can be changed so long as blacks stop committing so many crimes. The Asians dont commit violent crimes, and the Whites wont think Asians will pull out guns, because stereotype of a typical asian is that hes soft and docile. The stereotype for a typical black is that hes more violent and crime-prone, thus police takes more caution against them, especially when it comes to self-defense.

Blacks are just more violent and commit more crimes. End of discussion.


You'd have to be a blind idiot to disagree.

This.
