A black man is much, much more likely to be killed by another black man than he is by the police.
The stats are consistent in the UK.
Those parties that accuse trump of destroying America are the ones literally destroying America.
Ill just leave this here for you to think about.
Max, it would help if you told us how we got here.
What are the root causes for the results of your above statement?
Let me help you out a little to get you started.
How about combination of 500 years of slavery, racism, prejudices, discrimination, lack of work opportunity, housing projects, poor schooling, denied justices.......!
I think a better question would be, where is all this going? Because police brutality is not the problem in the grand scheme of things.
So you are trying to tell me, slavery (and the rest of it) which was abolished hundreds of years ago and police brutality are responsible for the black on black homicide rate being double what the white on black homicide rate is today?
A black person is much, much more likely to be killed by another black person than he is by the police.
America's problems are just starting, and they wont end with police reform or defunding them.
Max, you may have your own questions and we can get to them later, but for know, please explain to us how we have gotten to where we are today for all the problems you have raised in your above statement.
In order to move forward, we need to understand the past, which sounds as if you are not interested.
All this shit did not just happen overnight.
So, I will await for your response as to the causes of the problems you have stated, mainly about the black people and their place in today's society.
Please read my statements again,
These statements have nothing to do with slavery. So it wouldn't make sense to go back 300 years to find out why most black people are being killed by black people today.
The biggest indicator as to whether someone is going to resort to crime or be under educated or poor in America today is whether they were raised in a single parent house hold or whether both parents stayed together. This is my take on the main cause of the homicide problem in the black community today.
So going back to the days of slavery, police reform or defunding them is not going to solve any of their problems.
Why are most homicides in America black on black? Your answer please.
