SqueakyPete Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 According to some sources theres been 121 "murders" by police on black people last month (July) alone At that rate, yeah they could become an endangered species Which sources are these? I have read a couple of articles indicating "1 every 36 hours",which I thought was a lot,but 4 a day?,was that from Blackpanthers.com or something? Neither figure matters really,as the only one thats important is "how many totally innocent,unarmed black people were shot?" Im guessing by the fact you put "murders"that you assume they where all innocent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im guessing by the fact you put "murders"that you assume they where all innocent? i put "murders" as they were dead LOL, personally speaking im neither those shot, those doing the shooting or the police force in question so i wouldnt know if they were innocent or not, again just saying the number that i have seen bandied about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassity Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Im guessing by the fact you put "murders"that you assume they where all innocent? Or all guilty.

cassity Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 back it up with what? i dont have a clue how many have died, i aint taking count Then don't serve up 121. I merely suggested that when you throw definitive numbers around and use "I have seen bandied about" as well as... According to some sources theres been 121 "murders" by police on black people last month (July) alone 121 "murders" by police in one month should be easy to corroborate rather than hear say with hear say. As I said, it's SF and you WILL get called on it regardless of authenticity or not. I heard it on the grapevine or in a pub is poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you,I don't know the full ins and outs of the "121",but I would hazard a guess that they wasn't all murders . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sierra Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Unarmed Black person gets killed by White officer = Racial uproar. Unarmed gets killed by Black officer = ??? People can comment about "yeah,but you are more likely to be shot if your Black",but does that make the White guys death less relevant? Unarmed is Unarmed,no matter what colour you are! Get outta here Pete with your common sense and rational thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinfoilhat Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Yet young black men killing other young black men in sizeable numbers over the right to sell drugs on what street corner or perceived "disrespect" doesn't make news at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buck Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Thankfully the body cam proved this cop was not only a thug but also a liar. America is going down hill fast and if youre black you appear to be fair game. Yet another white Police Officer killed in the line of duty. In Memphis this time. Military veteran with a family. Any sympathy here for his wife and kids. I doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berberis Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Thankfully the body cam proved this cop was not only a thug but also a liar. America is going down hill fast and if youre black you appear to be fair game. The fact is you are statistically speaking 200x MORE likely to be murdered by a black person if you are white than a black person murdered by a white person. This is media hype. http://acidcow.com/pics/20150623/crime_statistics_01.jpg However, lets not get caught up in the Black Vs White BS. We are people irrespective of our skin colour.
