Statistically Speaking

Most crime in the US is intraracial. Oddly enough though, we never hear much about white-on-white crime.
Nonetheless, tis a troubling phenomenon.

When are y'all going to get your fucking ACT together and stop killing, stalking, molesting, mass shooting and selling meth to each other, huh?

My "political agenda"? 

I haven't had one of those since I ran for office - and barely had one then...

I just call it like I see it.

So what do you say to the fact that black people don’t kill each other at any higher of a rate than any other race kills “their own”? For once, can you just admit you were wrong?

What has that got to do with this - other than to serve as a distraction?

Challenge - pick any major city in the US - and compare the number of black men killed by police with the number killed by other black men.

Then bring those numbers back and show me I am wrong - and I will gladly admit I am wrong.

That IS what we are talking about - black men fearing being killed by police - my contention is they have more to fear from other black men than the police.

Prove me wrong.

It's not a distraction it's a fact

Should be a couple of weeks from now. I wish it could be sooner, but I’ve got to clear my calendar. 

My fellow white people aren't going kill, stalk, molest, mass shoot and sell meth to themselves, fer cryin’ out loud. I have a responsibility here.

Why would every black man need a cop assigned to them?  Can't they handle violence the same way that they do in predominantly white and affluent neighborhoods?  Do you realize that you're peddling racist tropes and calling it logic?

How many people here are saying all cops are bad?

Why do you have to make it a challenge?
Can't you just go and do the research yourself?
And make sure you research white on white violence because we want a comparison.
And then bring it back to us and show us where we're wrong. :-)

The systemic discrimination against blacks in America is and has been on many levels from day 1.
Basically the same with our indigenous population here and every other nation original people conquered by white Europeans.

Lack of opportunity for work, education, etc, all amounts to the position they are in now. They are ultimately the victims of the white patriarchal hierarchy.
That's just life. We can't change the past. But we can make a paradigm change for the future.

What do we do with our homeless? Sure it's usually their fault, they've made bad decisions in life. But aren't we judged as a society by how we help those less fortunate rather than trying to justify it like the OP?
The whole world needs a good shakeup...

Prove what wrong? Your the one slinging a false distraction. I’m not great at math, but if “black on black crime” is no more or less than white on white crime, or Hispanic on Hispanic crime, then why are you even talking about it? If all races kill each other at about the same rate, but unarmed black men are a third more likely to be killed by police than any other race, what does that tell you, OLB? 

Now, putting objective facts aside, let’s talk about this ridiculous false dichotomy you’ve presented where a black man has to either be afraid of other black men, or the police. Black communities are made up of people, believe it or not. “The black community” isn’t some singular hive mind. Take your racist bullshit and peddle it elsewhere.
