    When going straight to racism it is frankly, accurate, and very symbolic of the history of the USA police.

    I think the FBI makes a better argument about today, than you did:

    Actually Jim Crow is nationwide, thanks to it's incubator, known as the legacy of Slavery. I like the take on it, by scholar Michelle Alexander:

    Michelle Alexander is a highly acclaimed civil rights lawyer, advocate, and legal scholar. In recent years, she has taught at a number of universities, including Stanford Law School, where she was an associate professor of law and directed the Civil Rights Clinics. In 2005, she won a Soros Justice Fellowship, which supported the writing of The New Jim Crow, and that same year she accepted a joint appointment at the Kirwan Institute for the Study of Race and Ethnicity and the Moritz College of Law at The Ohio State University:



    Since its first publication,The New Jim Crow has received rave reviews and has been featured in national radio and television media outlets, including MSNBC, NPR, Bill Moyers Journal, Tavis Smiley, C-SPAN, and Washington Journal, among others. In March, the book won the 2011 NAACP Image Award for best nonfiction.

    ...Alexander is a graduate of Stanford Law School and Vanderbilt University. Following law school, she clerked for Justice Harry A. Blackmun on the U.S. Supreme Court and for Chief Judge Abner Mikva on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit.

    Did you include how the state, denotatively, is in fact a body of humans taking actions on behalf of the state?... As in, imperfect humans who bring their Racism to work and then use their GOVT power to act their Racism out onto the society.

    IMHO that is at the, cornerstone, of every sentence in your post.

    You brought political parties into the post. The poster you responded to made no mention of political parties. It was a deflection on your part to not address the post directly.

    The black person who is defenseless getting shot is a story because it happens more to them than to whites.
    There is still systemic racism in our country today.
    That is why these stories are so emotive.
    To deny it only adds to the problem.

    Yes, but then again our leftists blotted that out of their minds after the fact and AFTER having keep the nation convulsed over their political agenda racist witch hunt and anti-cop hatred for month after month after month. It was just another one of those things about that era under race-agitating Barack Obama and the ideologically leftist lock step mainstream media.

    Currently they treat them as criminals for doing normal things. It's not as if you can source this happens to white people.

    I'm asking people to prove the racist culture that was there during the Jim Crow era is actually gone. With crap like this, it sure aint. You're free to seek sources other than the media

    "Who is killing all those black men and boys?

    Mostly white officers. But in hundreds of instances, black officers, too. Black officers account for a little more than 10 percent of all fatal police shootings. Of those they kill, though, 78 percent were black.

    White officers, given their great numbers in so many of the country's police departments, are well represented in all categories of police killings. White officers killed 91 percent of the whites who died at the hands of police. And they were responsible for 68 percent of the people of color killed. Those people of color represented 46 percent of all those killed by white officers."

    I still like to see you prove that there is no Jim Crow culture alive in the US against the backdrop of all these "incidents"?

    Sometimes we just have to let liberals remain ignorant

    There are better things to do with my time than documenting something they will never accept anyway

    Cops pull their service pistols out of their holster.

    Was the safety off or on ?

    Did the cops point their pistols at the subject ?

    Were the cops trigger fingers outside of the trigger guard or not ?

    Do 8 cops show up when they see a white man attending his garden, that is what I'm interested in.
    I like you to prove to me, if that Jim Crow culture left with the law. It seems it hasn't one bit.

    That is what Affirmative Action program do, Black people officially declared as handicaps, so police treats them accordingly.
    Either eliminate AA or put up with the system.

    white males have no affirmative actions privileges, so police will no treat them as black people

    According to wikipedia "Politically, Boulder is one of the most liberal and Democratic cities in Colorado."

    This sounds more like a progressive problem. Maybe you lot should stop calling the police for every little thing that pricks your hairs up.

    Well, women can drag in things like that there is no equal pay compared to men, and with that they can prove the discrimination. So you can measure discrimination. So if there is no discrimination against black people... let's have it. And I don't see what faith / religion have to do with this.

    Any Conservatives want to jump in on the open racism your comrade here is spewing? Nope. Did think so.

    Liberal/progressive cities run by PC city councils tend to have the least qualified law enforcement officers.

    Actually because of the ACLU, liberal politicians and liberal judges who legislate from the bench law enforcement standards have been lowered for all law enforcement officer in the country in the name of political correctness.

    A large percentage of todays LE wouldn't have qualified for wearing a badge and a gun 50 years ago.
    The standards have been lowed that much.

    Perfect example, the biggest scandal in LAPD's history...remember the Rampart scandal ?

    A photo of a trashy white neighborhood, a trashy N.O. parish likely black and white meth heads pooping on the streets of the liberal utopia of San Francisco.

    What did I leave out ?
    That's right...a barrio... and behind the Orange Curtain in the OC because south of the Orange Curtain (cities such as Huntington Beach, Newport Beach, Mission Viejo, Irvive, etc) life is still nice and crime is low. Many people refuse to even cross this line because it takes weeks to get the stench out of their cars.

    I bring up the political party thing to demonstrate how completely
    distorted our image of race and politics is in America.
    I understand (show me I am wrong on a national level) that more
    whites get shot than blacks despite committing fewer crimes.
    THIS IS THE REAL RACISM.

    nb how many whites were shot by black policeman ought to also
    be an issue. Perhaps, if we can't just ban police altogether, we
    can set up a Police Race Policy - that is, you call a Latin cop to
    a Latino crime and black cop for a black crime etc.. It sounds
    stupid, but heck, no more stupid than saying it was Republicans
    who institutionalized racism in America.
