A detailed new report shows no racial disparities in crimes committed versus arrests made. Yes the canard, the excuse for the high rate of crime committed by blacks is only because whites and asian criminals are not arrested and are allowed to commit crime. If ONLY we arrested more whites and asians then we would see they commit as much crime as blacks. We must have EQUITY in who we arrest. Well in order to gain that EQUITY then either we must encourage whites and asians to commit more crime so we can arrest them, falsely arrest whites or let blacks get away with crime. "In a report released days before Mr. Biden’s inauguration, the Justice Department’s Bureau of Justice Statistics examined whether people of different races were arrested to a degree that was disproportionate to their involvement in crime. The report concluded that there was no statistically significant difference by race between how likely people were to commit serious violent crimes and how likely they were to be arrested. In other words, the data suggested that police officers and sheriff’s deputies focus on criminals’ actions, not their race. The BJS report did not take cops’ word for who commits crimes. Rather, it relied on victims’ own accounts of who committed crimes against them, as reported through BJS’s National Crime Victimization Survey.... ... It found that for nonfatal violent crimes that victims said were reported to police, whites accounted for 48% of offenders and 46% of arrestees. Blacks accounted for 35% of offenders and 33% of arrestees. Asians accounted for 2% of offenders and 1% of arrestees. None of these differences between the percentage of offenders and the percentage of arrestees of a given race were statistically significant. (The data is limited to nonfatal crimes because murder victims cannot identify their assailants.) ...When removing simple assault, which generally isn’t prosecuted as a felony, and focusing solely on the more serious nonfatal crimes reported to police (rape or sexual assault, robbery and aggravated assault), whites made up 41% of offenders and 39% of arrestees. Blacks made up 43% of offenders and 36% of arrestees. Asians made up 2.5% of offenders and 1.5% of arrestees. Again, none of these differences between offenders and arrestees by race were statistically significant. ...It’s good news that police are arresting those who actually commit crimes, and that the data doesn’t support the claim of “systemic racism.” In his inaugural address, Mr. Biden emphasized the need for unity and said that “demonization” has “long torn us apart.” Yet the president’s demonization of America as a land of “systemic racism,” a claim that he roots in the alleged racism of police, contradicts the evidence. https://www.wsj.com/articles/biden-...ies-science-11614969593?mod=opinion_lead_pos6 So what should we do here? Just round up more whites and asians and arrest then them whether or not they have committed a crime. Or maybe have the guts to acknowledge the reality and the harm it causes not just black communities and society but ALL of us who are victims and have to pay the cost of the crimes? How about black leaders acknowledging the fact that is is NOT "systemic racism" that has such a detrimental effect but behavior within their own communities. Will President Biden accept the science and show some leadership here or will he just parrot the same old false excuses?
So this proves most cops are not racist and vote innocent of the lies the left, media and black lives matter spreads. The true racists are the Democrats. A teenager girl for her class had to pick a black person as her idol and she picked Candace Owens. She then started getting hate mail. That's just one example and just happened recently. The left hates black conservatives. They are very mean to anyone they don't like or cancel them. They only act like they care about blacks for the votes but once black people switch parties they call them coins or uncle Tom's. Then there is black people who also shame other black people for being married to white people. Even black Democrats are racist. The fact they brainwash many into believing cops are bad or white nationalists actually exist is sad. They need to stop using race and color for political gain. The Democrats created the KKK. The Democrats created PP. The Democrats created BLM. The Democrats created Antifa. The Democrats created Me Too. All designed to hate on anyone they don't agree with. All racist or hatefull groups. The Democrats tore down statues. The Democrats love cancel culture. The Democrats removed "one nation under God". The Democrats supported riots and protests that lead to people being killed and buildings burnt down. People were attacked for supporting Trump. 1 family had thier house fire bombed. The Democrats stayed silent. The Democrats supported assassinating a president. (Trump) The Democrats support liberal teachers and fake news full of propaganda. Democrats support criminals. Democrats support China etc. Yet they want everyone to believe Republicans are the problem? Republicans support closed borders and kicking out illegals. Republicans support the freedom to own a gun. Republicans want to end all wars. Republicans are against abortion. Republicans support jobs and economy. Republicans support the police, Ice and military. Republicans are for AMERICA.
Democrats: "Rascism for me but not for thee" Democrats: Anyone I don't like is a fascist, racist, evil hatefull white supremacist supporting white nationalism. Democrats: Black conservatives ain't black. They coons and uncle Tom's. Democrats: Republicans are all liars and should have no power in this country. In fact they should all leave America. Democrats: "Rioting for me but not for thee". Democrats: Lets burn down buildings and kill people. Our party will bail us out. Democrats: Lets hate on white people and any black person married to a white person. Democrats: Lets have black only bathrooms and force women to use bathrooms with creepy men who stare at them. Democrats: Lets falsely accuse people of rape and try to publicly destroy them. Democrats: Lets support rapist Roman Polanski and ask for him to have a second chance but make a big deal about Rossane Bar calling someone a ape as if that is worse than rape. Democrats: Lets try to impeach a president with zero evidence just because we hate him. Democrats: Republicans are the party of hate. They are the worst people ever. They are evil. Also Democrats:
The technique is repeating a talking point over and over until people begin to believe it is true. It seems to work pretty well, particularly among those who want it to be true.
That's because it's so easy to manipulate most people in America into believing anything and the news is good at that. The Democrats Here on PF can't even dispute the OP because they know it's true. They don't even try to hide it anymore. As long as people believe the lies the Democratic party can controll then and thier vote.
Most crimes are victimless, which the OP ignores. Whites kids use drugs at about the same rate as Black kids. The police are more likely to stop and check a Black kid for drugs than a White kid. It has been the War on Drugs, which was created and perpetrated for the express purpose of suppressing Blacks and hippies, that has caused the rise in arrests and incarceration in the US, to the highest in the world.
Don't forget there are some people who have also been good at that: Charles Manson, Jim jones and most certainly the latest, donald trump.
Biden, Claiming ‘Systemic Racism’ in Policing, Defies Science Science??? is that a new ice cream flavor?
And a lot of people believe that bringing in unskilled and uneducated illegals and Muslim refugees who don't habla will improve the country.
This past year during the pandemic we've all seen a lot of doctors being interviewed on television. I'm glad we have all those doctors with funny names. What would we do without them??
The data collected doesn't even talk about drug crimes. But where's your evidence that white kids primarily from 2 parent families use drugs at a higher or the same rate as black kids who primarily live in one parent households.
My post was unexpectedly a hurried one and was directed towards the liberals on here and not you. I ment to say more unarmed white people are shot by cops every year than black people. Racism is dying and the left uses it as propaganda to control black people.
Now let's take that a step further. Because being shot does not make you a criminal. So, who are shooting the unarmed white and black men?
Personal experience. When I was in high school and college, I regularly smoked a little weed when I got together with my friends. Even sampled other substances. My social circle at the time included mostly high performing students from upper middle class two parent families. I still consume cannabis products at social gatherings, forty some years later, and I don’t think any of my friends have ever been targeted by the police for our drug use. Ever. Even when we were young long haired hell raisers. More than once I have seen the police look the other way as I walked on by, some even gave me a wink and a nod, yet stopped and questioned my less white fellow travelers. Seems to me, that if I was criminal mastermind, I would hire young Black men with hoodies to walk around in a regular pattern, to gather suddenly, as a way to divert police attention, away from where their eyes are not wanted.
The police. In Portland, the police haven’t been getting in trouble for their maltreatment of Blacks, but rather for their maltreatment of the mentally ill, especially the homeless, half of who have significant mental and/or emotional shortcomings. It was one of the primary issues in last summer’s protests. Most police killings in Portland tend to happen when someone is having a mental breakdown. Both Denver and Portland have begun programs where social workers are sent to deal with those having such problems, rather than the police. The decriminalization of mental illness.
Well I was referring to the police. The numbers are actually very low but the media won't show them. It does not fit thier narrative.
Good point. Also the war on guns is a one way trip to prison for many people of color. Many people live in dangerous neighborhoods and fear for their lives, but cannot afford the high cost of legally owning/carrying a gun. Police stop them, they don't know their rights and help the police arrest them. Some drugs and a gun in the car is the recipe for keeping the prison system extremely profitable. Never mind that this is a constitutional right, throw away the key.
Strange, the MSM paints a different picture. When Portland's riots started after George Floyd's death by officer's knee. Floyd did not die because he was mentally ill. He died because he was stoned, stupid and passing a phony $20.00. Then they set up the Autonomous Zone in Portland, and the head of the BLM contingent denounced the ANTIFA white members for not being black. Sounds like racism to me. Strange, I do not remember seeing the acronym MILF (Mentally Ill Lives Matter) at the riots. Face it. There are two groups rioting in the city, and yes the riots are still ongoing. The Racist BLM's and the Fascist Anarchists ANTIFA. Both groups will seize on any issue for exposure, but that is still not their objective. Their combined objective is to rid the streets of the Police, and to control the cities citizens by fear. They want a police force like the wusses in Demolition Man, and see themselves as Wesley Snipes taking advantage of the situation. They are the real treasonous terrorists. This whole White National hysteria is nothing more then a distraction from the real terrorists being supported by the DNC.
