George Floyd death

[Vorastra]

You do realise you are hitting the nail on the head with the issue right?

And you are making a good case for why these protests happen.

What? That racial profiling should not be a thing? It absolutely should.

Yeah race started it , those who assumed he died due to his race ,they are wrong though , the only racist thing i saw in the video was that guy behing the camera calling the asian cop Chow , tao or whatever like 3 times.

Still no word on the cops saying they are gonna kill him because of his race.

All I have is that video and lots of noise.

For all we know the cop could treat every perp like that regardless of race. Maybe he was a bully in general.
Maybe he thought the guy was on drugs and figured the guy was lying about his suffering. Maybe the cop isn't trained properly.

We'll never know the truth now, too much emotion.

As the study says, all other things being equal, if the only differing factor is the colour of the person's skin then yes, it is.

If all others are fine under a system except for one group of people. Maybe it's not the system, but rather that group of people that need to change and address their issues.

It shouldn't. It serves no purpose.

Unless you feel innocent people getting killed is ok

So if law enforcement generally arrest and incarcerate black people far more than other races for similar offences it's actually the fault of black people, is that what your are suggesting?

Perhaps the black people in apartheid South Africa where at fault too?

This press secretary is the most prepared person I have ever seen in my life.

It seems she has notes prepared for any possible dumass questions these activists can come up with.

Incredible.

All other things aren't equal.

Sigh....from the article

These disparities were observed “after controlling for a wide variety of sentencing factors,” including age, education, citizenship, weapon possession and prior criminal history.

Sigh....from the article

For people that like to say facts matter, like to pretend certain facts dont count.

This press secretary is the most prepared person I have ever seen in my life.

Yeah ..... very cute.

So how do you explain that even though white and black Americans consume marijuana at roughly the same rate black Americans are 3.64 times more likely to be arrested for possession.

white americans get theirs delivered.

Sigh....from the article

There's no way to control for everything that isn't equal. Did they control for the general safety and crime rate in the neighborhood were people live and the police presence in that neighborhood. Criminal records of family. Social economic situation?

 

[Vrotappel]

Nobody who advocated all lives matter believes in BLM. That's the whole point of ALM, it's just simply an opposition to the concept of BLM.





Yes, as per the sign...

"In truth we know that all lives matter. We've supported your lives throughout history". What exactly don't you get about that?




It's a fundamentally political movement, just by its nature

LeBron James, Justin Bieber and More Stars Speak Out About George Floyd's Death

There is fierce outrage in Hollywood over the death of George Floyd, who was pinned down on the floor by a policeman's knee on his neck.

www.eonline.com

On Monday night, the 46-year-old Minnesota man was pronounced dead at a hospital after a white police officer pinned Floyd, a black man, to the ground by pressing his knee into Floyd's neck during his arrest. Bystander footage of the situation, which showed Floyd stating several times he could not breathe before appearing motionless with his eyes closed, has dominated social media this week, spurring outrage, protests and comparisons to Eric Garner, who also told officers at the time of his arrest that he couldn't breathe and died as a result of a police officer's chokehold in 2014. Floyd's official cause of death has not yet been released.

"Being Black in America should not be a death sentence," Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey said in a tweeted statement on Tuesday. "For five minutes, we watched a white officer press his knee into a Black man's neck. Five minutes." He later confirmed four responding officers "involved in the death of George Floyd have been terminated."
