[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 5506781, member: 24302"] We aren't talking violent encounters which very often happen because suspects refuse to comply with lawful orders. And the vast majority of police interactions with the public are professional and non violent. You asked me if I thought that kind of police brutality is uncommon. That kind of police brutality resulting in a man being beaten to death is uncommon. Which is why it has gotten so much coverage. You went out of your way to bring race into it. This was black on black but somehow whites are to blame. But you won't admit that while angry about it blacks haven't burned down cities for weeks over it. But if it had been a bunch of white cops everything would be burning down. All I want to see is some honesty. Whites are responsible for horrible systemic racism in the past. But most whites today want nothing more than peace and prosperity for everyone. That occasionally a white commits a racist act does not mean that all whites are racist. Likewise let's be honest about who is killing who. 90% of all black homicides are committed by other blacks. Of the remaining 10% almost half are committed by races other than whites. That doesn't mean blacks are all murderers or thugs. And before someone chimes in that those numbers don't mean anything because whites mostly murder whites, etc look at the numbers closer. 13% of the country's population, i.e. blacks, commit 52% of all murders. There's a huge violence problem within the black community that can only be fixed by blacks themselves. Blaming whites for all of that won't fix the problem. But you can certainly blame wrong headed government policies implemented by liberal whites for some of it. At some point we have to get past the past or things will never improve. It's too easy for race hustlers to play on fears however and as long as people are being manipulated so others can get rich things will never change. [/QUOTE]
