#racistbullshit. If there was a white lives matter movement people would say it is racist. More whites and Latinos are killed by the police every year compared to blacks. Fact. I also find it hilarious that no one in the black community DARES to comment on the fact that 12% of the population (us blacks) are responsible for 45% of the total crime in our country, but by percentage of homicide by police, we are behind Latinos and whites. Blacks kill more blacks than anything other than Cancer, diabetes, HIV, alcohol and car accidents, funny right? We should be proud of our race baiting ignorance. The rest of the world, and America, is laughing at us…
I know right, the native americans didnt even have no “native lives matter” movement, white people already know all lives matter, native americans and all
I really don’t like when people post divisive shit like this and think they are being more intelligent than anybody else. Here are the facts: by the numbers, more white people are murdered by police than any other race and while that’s technically true, it’s statistically deceptive because it doesn’t take into the population into account. White people make up approx. 62% of the population, black people make up approx. 13% of the population. There are several real-time databases of fatal police shootings, Washington Post has one aswell and based on those numbers, since Jan. 2015, 1502 people have been shot and killed by police; 732 white, 381 black and 382 other. Based on this, 49% of these killings are white people, 24% of them are black people. Can you see the problem? Black people only make up 13% of the population but 24% of the police killings. With everything remaining constant in this scenario, black people are about 2.5 times more likely to get shot and killed by police. Ok, let’s level the playing field now, how many of these fatal police shootings involved unarmed persons? There have been 50 fatal shootings of both unarmed black people and white people (in this same timeframe), which literally means in actuality, if there are approximately 5 times more white people than there are black people in the U.S, then that means that unarmed black people are approximately 5 times more likely than unarmed white people to be shot and killed by a police officer. Understand, these are the facts. Black people are killed at rates disproportionate to their percentage of the population. When speaking on statistics, it is extremely important to adjust for population. Enjoy the rest of your day.
Actually. It does take the percentage of population in to account. Read my following post. With cited sources BTW. This whole media shit storm’s intent is just that, to divide US. Hence your divisive comment.
Cops killed nearly twice as many whites as blacks in 2015. According to data compiled by The Washington Post, 50 percent of the victims of fatal police shootings were white, while 26 percent were black. The majority of these victims had a gun or “were armed or otherwise threatening the officer with potentially lethal force.”Some may argue that these statistics are evidence of racist treatment toward blacks, since whites consist of 62 percent of the population and blacks make up 12 percent of the population. But as To a The Wall Street Journal article, 2009 statistics from the Bureau of Justice Statistics reveal that blacks were charged with 62 percent of robberies, 57 percent of murders and 45 percent of assaults in the 75 biggest counties in the country, despite only comprising roughly 15 percent of the population in these counties.
In the same Washington Post article I believe you are using as a source they ALSO showed the studies that stated definitely that there is NO correlation between the committing of violent crimes and the rate at which people are murdered by police.

Posted this somewhere else but it was supposed to be directed towards you.
More whites and Hispanics die from police homicides than blacks. According to compiled data, 12 percent of white and Hispanic homicide deaths were due to police officers, while only four percent of black homicide deaths were the result of police officers.
The source I was using was the Washington Post Fatal Force database, my numbers were as of Sunday. I can also share a link to an article from the washington post yesterday with the same numbers I posted here. Check it out: http://wapo.st/29Df6rc

Google “Aren’t more white people than black people killed by police? Yes, but no.” Washington Post. That’s the name of the article. HHDX won’t let me post the link.
The Post’s data does show that unarmed black men are more likely to die by the gun of a cop than an unarmed white man…but this does not tell the whole story. In August 2015, the ratio was seven-to-one of unarmed black men dying from police gunshots compared to unarmed white men; the ratio was six-to-one by the end of 2015. But Data compiled points out in The Marshall Project that looking at the details of the actual incidents that occurred paints a different picture:
The “unarmed” label is literally accurate, but it frequently fails to convey highly-charged policing situations. In a number of cases, if the victim ended up being unarmed, it was certainly not for lack of trying. At least five black victims had reportedly tried to grab the officer’s gun, or had been beating the cop with his own equipment. Some were shot from an accidental discharge triggered by their own assault on the officer. And two individuals included in the Post’s “unarmed black victims” category were struck by stray bullets aimed at someone else in justified cop shootings. If the victims were not the intended targets, then racism could have played no role in their deaths.
In one of those unintended cases, an undercover cop from the New York Police Department was conducting a gun sting in Mount Vernon, just north of New York City. One of the gun traffickers jumped into the cop’s car, stuck a pistol to his head, grabbed $2,400 and fled. The officer gave chase and opened fire after the thief again pointed his gun at him. Two of the officer’s bullets accidentally hit a 61-year-old bystander, killing him. That older man happened to be black, but his race had nothing to do with his tragic death. In the other collateral damage case, Virginia Beach, Virginia, officers approached a car parked at a convenience store that had a homicide suspect in the passenger seat. The suspect opened fire, sending a bullet through an officer’s shirt. The cops returned fire, killing their assailant as well as a woman in the driver’s seat. That woman entered the Post’s database without qualification as an “unarmed black victim” of police fire. We also should examine a number of other instances, including unarmed black men in San Diego, CA and Prince George’s County, MD attempting to reach for a gun in a police officer’s holster. In the San Diego case, the unarmed black man actually “jumped the officer” and assaulted him, and the cop shot the man since he was “fearing for his life.” Please also note that there was an instance in 2015 where “three officers were killed with their own guns, which the suspects had wrestled from them.”
Also, neither of the two people we are debating on where unarmed. One had a mince to carry a concealed weapon, the other was a convicted felon with a illegal firearm.
This track should be called “Enslaved by the media who wants ratings and money at the expense of black Americans in prison and cemeteries.” LOLOLOL. I was feeling his Drake diss tracks. This is race baiting garbage.
I’m white and I find the States to be on some next level racist stuff and have been for ages. The Black Lives Matter is simply a movement, it’s the exact same movement as “Save the Whales” or “Save the Dolphins”. This doesn’t mean screw all other animals and the whales/dolphins is all that matter. Black Lives Matter is not about discriminating other races, it’s simply a movement. Get your head out the racist gutter and think for just a second. Your country is going to destroy itself thanks to morons like on here posting all types of silly remarks.

We should have a “Native lives matter” rally. You wouldn’t show up though. I would. Even though it would also be some race baiting bullshit…

Please site YOUr sources for your numbers as I have my brother.
You need to look at your percentages again… Also, 45% of the crime being committed by US, 12.5% of the population?

Please read this most recent study done by the first black man to receive tenure as. Professor at Harvard. He is a liberal, by the way. Black are more likely to be searched, cuffed and or pepper sprayed by the police in overall numbers and percentages statistics. They are however severa times less likely to be shot by police, unless the cop is black. http://mobile.nytimes.com/2016/07/12/upshot/surprising-new-evidence-shows-bias-in-police-use-of-force-but-not-in-shootings.html

This is the truth. Did you not hear him speak? He said even white people riding with us. He isn’t trying to divide. he’s trying to unite. Unlike you.
Thank you, Joey. So necessary. 5 stars.
We got white people in here pretending to be black smh
Where did you come up with that assumption from? LOLOLOL. Jean Macy.
