Trump denies the fact that police kill Black Americans at a higher rate than white

[StoneByStone]

And he didn’t actually say anything that wasn’t true lol.

But it caused a fuss because it goes against the narrative.

That's some of it, but it's also that people think he was willfully missing the point. Which I don't agree with. I think he actually is that stupid.

that WAS the point. he even fleshed it out with mentioning "rogue cops" need to be removed -but systemic racism
( my characterization to be accurate) is not PD culture. BLM lies.

Think about it.
Major cities have majority black/minority police make up -unless you think this nut case is lucid?

I don't think BLM is right about systemic racism either. But the question was about why Blacks are killed at higher rates. I'd say it's because Blacks commit more crime, but Trump totally missed the point and just started talking about raw numbers.

Wake up, Pebble by Pebble...
Since 50% of violent crime in America is committed by 13% (actually 7% are young black males) one would expect more blacks to be killed .

The answer...tell the blacks to stop committing violent crimes.

the raw numbers are important -they dispute the narrative as well.

but look at our conversation.
we fleshed it out after a couple back and forths -Trump makes a TRUE COMMENT and it's distorted and lied about
This is how it always goes

I said it's because Blacks commit more crime. Are you unable to read?

It might also help if violent criminals would stop assaulting and murdering police officers...stop ambushing them and stop resisting arrest when arrested.

If you are going to condone the violence and murders and looting and burning, you also must accept the consequences...more black deaths.

If someone asked you what you think of our current economic policies and you answered by saying: "watermelon is delicious," you would have made a TRUE COMMENT, but you also would have missed the point.

Statistics show that while more white Americans are killed by the police over all, minorities are killed at higher rates. A federal study that examined lethal force used by the police between 2009 and 2012 found that a majority of victims were white, but the victims were disproportionately Black. Black people had a fatality rate at the hands of police officers that was 2.8 times higher than that of white people.

Skin color plays little role in deadly force encounters. Behavior is the key factor. But Looney Libs like you don't want to hear that.

One wonders when a black police officer kills a violent black criminal who is trying to kill him...is this acceptable?

If a white police officer kills a black violent criminal who is trying to kill him...is this acceptable?l

That this question has to be asked tells us a great deal about the far left loons.

Over twice as many blacks shot by cops than whites. Of course that is significant.

That's not what the study showed. More white were shot, not 2x blacks.

Liar

like all mindless cunts, you accuse anyone who doesn't accept your false narrative of being the liar........it must be sad to be as stupid as you.......

[Darth Omar]

Well, was he supposed to say something like ‘well yeah, cops do kill an unusually high number of blacks, so I’m going to start this program...’.

Why should Trump be forced to grant a spurious premise—especially, if he doesn’t believe it in himself?

He could have said "police kill Blacks at a higher rate because...." But because he was too stupid to understand the question, he didn't address it.

My post was to you but more importantly, to the guests who read JPP, Pebble...May I call you by your first name, Pebble?

Most of the posters are locked into their own positions and pay no attention to threads that they disagree with. That includes myself and I pay scant attention to the far left loon’s posts except to correct their numerous false narratives and lies.

Do you understand now, Pebble?
