So, my characterization of the cop might seem like I'm victimizing him. I'm not. Your characterization of the cop just proves my point. It is not the system wide conspiracy to kill, it's that people who want to kill and are sadistic control freaks love being cops? So these are all particular instances and not an indication of system wide statistically significant killing spree.

All right, we probably agree on more than I originally thought. But the fact is those sadistic control freaks, as if it weren't bad enough they were cops, are often biased against minorites and exist in a system that is biased. So I wouldn't say there's a conspiracy, but I do argue that the system disproportionately affects non-white Americans. And perpetuates itself with all its biases.

  I would not say that the system disproportionately affects non-white Americans. I would also not say that the system is biased, there's not a law, a rule, nothing, creating a bias in the system. I would also say that bias of the individual is not on a scale to have a statistically significant bias happening within the police. non-white Americans commit more violent crimes, that's a fact. I would not blame the police for that fact. There's something cultural going on there and I would not even say that is a product of racist culture. IMO, USA is the least racist it has ever been.

    Did you even RTFA? Facts are much more relevant than your opinion. I put zero stock in what "you would say" versus the data shown here, which you conveniently ignore. Why are you even posting on this topic with so little knowledge of it?

      I read the article. When I was making "would say" statements I was merely copying the expression parent used. Facts are that black people commit more crimes. These are not fake crimes, these are real crimes. This obviously makes it very probable that they'll have issues with the cops, including shootings. It's very simple, groups that commit more crimes, do get shot more often than others by cops. Yes, there are instances of obvious cop racism and bad judgement but these are instances, not an epidemic.
