On the anniversary of Michael Brown’s death, the Washington Post published a long article on shootings of unarmed black men that was intended to be racially inflammatory. The subheading was: “A year after Michael Brown’s fatal shooting, unarmed black men are seven times more likely than whites to die by police gunfire.”
But the Post’s actual findings were considerably less dramatic:
So far this year, 24 unarmed black men have been shot and killed by police….Those 24 cases constitute a surprisingly small fraction of the 585 people shot and killed by police through Friday evening, according to The Post database. Most of those killed were white or Hispanic, and the vast majority of victims of all races were armed.
Ninety per cent, actually, were armed:

So far this year 20 Blue Officers have been killed in the line of duty. Where is the study to see what race the dead cops is and what is the race of the cop killer? I want to see those stats published! I want to know if cops need to be extra cautious around certain races. It is NOT racist to be aware.

Edit: 20 cops dead at the hands of the suspect, not from other causes their risky job requires them to confront. I needed to clarify that so Moe Tom doesn’t get mad at me.
On some level you have to wonder if the Democrats would not welcome the distraction of a good old fashioned race riot coast to coast in order to distract everyone from watching the Hildebeest take what’s left of the party with her screaming down in flames.
She has managed to do what nobody else in the Democrat Party could, and that’s make Joe Biden look like a viable candidate.
To white Democrats, that is.
The problem we have is that 50 plus years and trillions of dollars later, Democrat politics have finally yielded what they have long set out to do; and that is create a permanent under class among black American citizens. We have the incredible contrast of Bernie Sanders out-polling Hillary Clinton, while at the same time being run off his own stage by black activists who will have no part of any old, white Democrat politician whether they be male or female. Bernie at least has the guts to confront this all in public, while the Hildebeest is dodging FBI agents.
We have roughly 13% of the US population who will have nothing to do with the white wing of the Democrat Party who are seriously reconsidering the inevitability of another Clinton presidency. Even Ron Fornier is abandoning the Clintons, and today said he thinks “the peasants will have torches” if it is another Clinton v Bush race.
Hillary is in serious trouble, and the Democrats are desperate to talk about anything else.
The race riots are a very important parts of the strategy. Make no mistake. They will be ugly and violent, worse than Baltimore and st Louis. Only a Demon will be able to miraculously calm them just before election day… making it appear to the trembling whites hiding behind their window curtains that they must vote Demon to stop it.
You don’t understand. The demons are still waiting for for their time. I don’t know any white men who are not aware and prepared.
That’s not trembling. It’s the effects of recoil.
Not worried about riots here. They will have to bus them in. Good luck de boarding the bus.
Make sure to fire a couple of warning rounds just for sport.
Why do people still assume white people are afraid? Do not confuse civilization with fear.
White people have invented more effective ways to kill our enemies than any other race.
Fortold is forewarned.
Whites trembling? Hiding behind window curtains? Pfffffttt.
Nahhh. In this part of the country, and even in the city, more like up on the rooftops of homes and office buildings to be able to get better line of sight shots.
Just be sure to aim your “warning shots” at center mass. And double tap.
