Yet they've been unable to name one unarmed black man killed unjustifiably – only Breonna Taylor, in my opinion, was a terrible event.
But even then, they don't recognize that it was a conservative – Rand Paul – who created a bill to stop that from ever happening again.
You want to talk about a completely unjustified murder by a police officer? Daniel Shaver. Not only was it moreorless an execution by a trigger happy asshole, but he also got away scot-free after going to court for it.
They make such a big deal about George Floyd – who we can see on video swallowing a bag of fentanyl – but we never heard a mention when something similar happened to Tony Timpa. He died in almost identical circumstances, except you can hear the police mocking and laughing at him up until the EMT's decide to inform the officers that he's dead. But once again, silence.
However, even if we take those cases into account, there's no way that someone can make the claim that it's an indication of some sort of systemic problem that's plaguing our cities.
I've said it before, but it bears repeating because it's important, that there are over 900,000 active police officers in the Unite States at this very moment. Nine-Hundred-Thousand. Each officer interacts with the public while performing their duty multiple times daily. When you take that into consideration, it's nearly impossible to quantify just how many encounters that accumulative amount of officers has with the public each year; it's practically uncountable.
In order for me to believe that there's some sort of problem endemic in policing institutions, the amount of deaths by officers would have to be astronomically higher than what it is. We're talking thousands – if not tens of thousands.
But that's simply not the case. Last year there were 9 unarmed black men killed by police officers, out of a black population of over 40,000,000. For those who may be curious, the number of whites killed last year while unarmed was 19.
They'll use goofy crap to boost the black number to 13 by saying, "But it was actually 13! There were 4 additional ones were killed by off-duty police!"
They can fuck off with that. I'm not including off-duty police officers because that's not relevant to a usual encounter with law enforcement.
Either way, even if we go completely with the presupposition that all of those unarmed killings were unjustified, as well as done by exclusively white police officers – because remember, this is supposedly a race thing – it still doesn't add up to indicating some sort of massive problem in the system. You'd have to be a disingenuous liar looking to start trouble to claim otherwise.
We hear constantly that, "every time a black person leaves the house they have to worry about being shot and killed by a police officer!" But if we do some incredibly simple math using the total black population and the number of unarmed black men reportedly killed unjustly to determine what percentage of the population is killed every year by police, we can find that out of that total of forty-million black people in America, only 0.0000225%.
Grab your kids! Stay inside! We got a problem here!
So tired of this stupid narrative being constantly perpetuated non-stop just so people have excuse to loot, riot, hurt others, and push political agendas.
