Glad to see you showing your true colors.
"I believe the black on black crime myth, so until blacks pull up their pants they will get treated like feral dogs"
now we can debate from a place of honesty
......
So even though most people who talk about BLM are also the same people in their streets in their cities trying to alleviate the issue of black on black violence, which funny enough is never covered in the media or anywhere, people still think this
And the FBI shut down the Panthers real quick, while the KKK runs around for over 100 years

And good ol' Jeff Sessions is now the attorney general.
You see the difference is that whoever shot that man will get indicted, tried and convicted when found. An officer would get suspended with pay and then return back to the force and at worst fired, even in the most egregious cases.
And pray tell me how African Americans tend to treat other? You've basically devolved 13% of the population to just their skin color and made them into a monolith with no diversity of thought because clearly they all treat each other the same. And the sad thing is way too many people think exactly like you do.

Can't really summarize it well because I'm on my phone, but this column on a recent BLM protest in Philly is just sad.

You mean a marginalized group in a corrupt city with massive unemployment, underfunded resources, education, crime, dealing with by and large governmental neglect plus add illegal gun problems....you're telling me these guys fight and sometimes kill each other? Insane how that happens.
Did they have Zelda in the 1800s?
This is how it'll go, isn't it? Someone will post something real shitty, trollish, and disingenuous and bail, or return and claim victimhood due to a liberal dogpile or both sides or whatever nonsense. Stuff that's easily refuted or explained with a shred of good analysis.
I wish I had the energy to post about how black communities and organizations are the biggest proponents of good law enforcement, neighborhood watches, communal engagement, etc. I'm reminded of that Huey P. Newton interview right now.
People just hate it when the oppressed start having a voice, especially if that voice is an angry one. Just look how they did Malcolm X dirty in the sixties, they can't handle that maybe, just maybe everything isn't so perfect and that sometimes minorities aren't going to be so polite about everything, like we've been cast as as always being nice and sanitized in roles that demand we fit the narratives of others- fuck that noise, the truth is we've been denied the right to be angry.

It's a bit infuriating seeing Black people pull the "what about Black on Black crime!?" card when discussing BLM. I've had two family friends my age pull that shit and I just look at those brothers differently.
My mom used to do that
Then I kept showing her people in what are usually crime ridden areas, such as Chicago, St. Louis, Memphis, Baltimore, etc. and we'd talk about the common factors these cities share that harm the minority population in these cities that are poor
Black people want to live in safe communities. I don't see how it's hard for other people to understand

Is there even evidence that skin color, all else equal, leads to a higher chance of being killed by police? I have not done much research, but it seems all the research I've seen only looks at skin color, and not the nature of the crime being commited or the interaction (whether there was resistance in the arrest or not).

If you follow the news, you already know the answer to that.
Sounds like you wanna do some research if you have questions that would be answered by research.

As I said, I've done some research and none of the studies account for the variables that I listed. I wanted to know if anybody knew of such studies.
How long was this guy in the thread? Tried to follow the posts but it doesn't seem like it took him too long to snap and reveal his true form.
