Damnit ultimax you're going to summon the ghost of Tezuni Von Antiliberal
90% sure that graph is bullcrap since far more white people are killed by police in general than black people. (numerically, not percentage-wise)
Not to mention that even if it wasn't- just LOOK at the graph. It's average unarmed deaths per 1 million people, and the results are literally separated by 2 people. 1/2 a white person per 1,000,000 on average, and 2 1/2 black per 1,000,000. That is so tiny; it means
nothingIt can easily be chalked up to demographics- which is that the poorest people in the U.S is where a large chunk of the black population resides. Not because of other racial issues- but because parts of a culture that descended from slavery did not value education as much and therefore are more inclined to find themselves in a lesser economic state. This was then passed on through several generations. Obviously they're just as capable, but there's this culture that developed partially because of this history, which makes it harder to rise up on the economic ladder.
LOGICALLY if most encounters with police are with that economic level - you're going to have more accidents with black people.
edit: and I just realized that I bumped a conversation that might have died otherwise. Yay me. :I
