It's true that black on black crime is an issue, but  it doesn't take away from the fact that black folks are killed by people who uphold an oath.

The thing is most crime is "local". Whites kill whites near the same rates as Black on Black crime. It's mostly used as a way to duck out of other conversations.

This isn’t even close to being true, lol. 2600 cases of white people murdering each other in 2018, and 2600 cases of black people murdering each other. 
 

black people are 13% of the population.

250 million whites, 44 million blacks. If it were the same “rate”, whites would have murdered each other 10,000+ times

Well.. 228 blacks were killed by police in 2018 (and in sure a majority were justified) compared with the 2600 black on black murders in 2018

 

:ben: let’s worry about the 10% instead?

This is also why police are more likely to use lethal force against black people. If you're confronting a portion of the population that the statistics show is more likely to be violent towards you or others, then naturally you're going to be more on edge than if you were to confront a white person or anyone from any other race. People always seem to chalk that up to racism, but thats really not the case.

 

This is an uncomfortable subject to talk about which is so many people try to avoid it, but its time to do something about the root problem instead of blaming police for everything.

It makes it a lot less “racist” if you simply change the terms. 
 

xbox has shit games and is known for flops

nintendo has great games and makes gems

 

if there’s an unreleased game on Xbox, I assume by nature it’s shit. If it’s a ninty first party banger, I’m gonna assume it’s gonna be great. 

and Xbox is mad at the industry for thinking it’s games are shit based on history, instead of making moves for better games. 
 

well. Change some words there and you have “racism”
