These are the facts: This year to April 12, 52 black people were fatally shot by police, just three of whom were unarmed, and 109 white people suffered the same fate, five of whom were unarmed, according to a Washington Post database.
Yet the media and allied activists only scream when police kill a black person.
The majority of Americans, especially leftists, wildly overestimates the number of unarmed black men killed by police. For instance, 53.5 percent of those reporting “very liberal” political views estimated the number to be 1,000 or more deaths in 2019, when the actual number of unarmed black men fatally shot by police was 12.
A lot of the media is invested in this false narrative and will not let it go, no matter how much mayhem it unleashes.
For instance, before he resigned, Brooklyn Center Police chief Tim Gannon gave a press conference in which he mentioned the riots the previous night, and was shouted down by activists posing as reporters. “Don’t do that,” they scolded him. “There was no riot.”
“There was,” he replied. “An officer was injured, hit on the head with a brick [and] was transported to the hospital.”
Gannon was trying to be upfront when he released Potter’s bodycam footage and said she had mistaken her gun for her Taser.
But the media was only interested in reinforcing their racism narrative. Wright was “driving while black” was a favorite headline.
A Minneapolis Star Tribune columnist wrote that Wright was pulled over because he had air freshener dangling from his mirror. Shots from the bodycam video show no air freshener existed from the start to the end of the police interaction.
Pulling Wright over wasn’t racist. He was driving with expired license plate tags.
Arresting him wasn’t racist. He had an open warrant related to an armed-robbery case for a case in which he allegedly choked a woman and threatened to shoot her.
Wright should not have died, but racism had nothing to do with it.
When he resisted arrest, jumped back in his car and attempted to escape, police had good reason to try to stop him.
