[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"In 2014, there were 6,095 black homicide victims, more than all white and Hispanic homicide victims combined, even though blacks are only 13 percent of the population. The black homicide toll will be even higher in 2015. In over 90 percent of those black deaths, the killer was another black civilian. By all means, we must try to eliminate unjustified use of force by police. But as long as crime rates in black communities remain so high, officers will be disproportionately engaged there, with all the attendant risks of such deployment. Indeed, the incessant refrain that cops are racist could well increase the likelihood that black suspects will resist arrest, and that witnesses will be reluctant to cooperate."

Sadly, +1.

Those are the facts. 6,095 of them.

Addressing them should be the #1 priority of any activist (or President, or Attorney General) who claims that "Black Lives Matter" [/quote]
