I feel like most of you don't understand what a hyperbole is

You never read in the news about all the black people who got up in the morning, went to work, came home had a few beers then feel asleep..

The person pictured is Philando Castile, by all accounts an incredibly decent man. If you're so inclined you can watch a video of him die.

I watched the video. Cop told him not to move. Guy moved. Kept moving. Got shot. Tragic, but kinda his own fault tbh
LongDongShiverGiver
The cop said "don't pull it out" twice and instantly shoots 6 fucking times. Who knows if he was even reaching for anything.
PoppaBigBear
Isn't this the one where the cop asks for ID?
TheGhostofElizabethShue
'Don't pull it out' is not 'don't move', and also I'd like to know how you know what he did seeing as you can't see from the squad car video
whosthatgirlitsvern
Castile was complying with the command to get his wallet. How do I know Castile wasn't reaching for his gun? First, damn common sense. (1)

(2) People do not calmly tell an officer they are legally carrying a firearm, then reach for it. Second, the testimony of EMTs that the gun

(3) was in the pocket, not out of the pocket. Third, I have waded through the 2K pages of BCA evidence. "Excited utterance" statements are

I'm sure this will be controversial, but I don't think most black men in America have been shot. Anyone got a percentage?
[deleted]
[deleted]
TheConformityInCommentorsHereIsAstronomical
It's not controversial. It's probably an attempt at trivializing the % of black people shot by exploiting that people don't know statistics.
Cavalrysword
I've never met anyone who has been shot who thinks it is trivial. Just being shot at pisses me off. I take it personally.
Cavalrysword
The form of his question implies that being shot is the norm, not the exception. Which is a form of lying. I'm against that.
TheConformityInCommentorsHereIsAstronomical
No. All is relative. Being shot as a black person more normal than if white. This really shouldn't have to be explained to you.
Cavalrysword
That's either badly phrased, poorly thought out, or you are really committed to being seen as a victim.
TheConformityInCommentorsHereIsAstronomical
Your hobby is apparently misinterpreting hyperbole, but is that only when you disagree with what the point that's being emphasized?

More whites are killed by police, more blacks are killed by each other. Noah is a dishonest race-baiter

Adjusted for income poor people get killed more often than rich people.

The raw number of fatalities isn't the issue, it's that blacks are shot by police at a rate far higher than white people, implying bias.

No, it's that black deaths are covered on the news far more than white deaths, implying bias.
donth8appreciat
When you take into account the rate at which black males commit violent crimes, the rates are about right 1/2
AnneFranklyMyDearIDontGiveADamn
....The punishment for violent crime is not getting shot by a cop. There is no "right" rate for police shootings.
donth8appreciat
No, but if you go around committing crimes, are you more or less likely to be shot by the police?
AnneFranklyMyDearIDontGiveADamn
You're making quite a few assumptions about the people being killed. The man in this post, for example, was not committing a violent crime.
donth8appreciat
Black men make up 6.5% of the population and commit around half of all murders. It's not pretty, but it's reality
BobKelsoMD
Blacks also rank at the highest poverty rate as well as the highest % of incarcerations, you know factors that contribute to murder rates
SMforreals
Also more likely to live in urban areas surrounded by other poor black people. Poverty + proximity.
MironGaines
Crime = Poverty, not vice versa
BobKelsoMD
I don't think you understand what poverty does to people

Not true. The FBI statistics show that you are 100% wrong. Link to follow.

The bias of black people towards criminality?
TheGhostofElizabethShue
Hey the 1800s called, they say you're a racist prick.
UnluckyLunkhead
Not really, just pointing, out the stupidity of selected stats. 2017 says your a kneejerk name-calling moron.
UnluckyLunkhead
Otherwise suggest that the statistics be balanced by the cops needing to shoot more whites. You choose.
Svartlebee
Is he racist when the statistics back him a lot of the way?
TheGhostofElizabethShue
Yes. Even if they did, which they don't. Unless you want to be unscientific in your reading of them, say cos you're a racist.
PoppaBigBear
There's also more whites than blacks. Cops also shoot blacks at a higher rate than whites
MironGaines
There are more whites, but whites and blacks commit crime about equal, yet whites are killed more.
