As others have noted, it is clear that non-whites are shot by police at much higher rates than whites.

@windinhishair like I’ve said over 10 times on this post blacks make up a higher percentage of crime so of course those percentage will be higher how many times do I need to repeat myself?

@windinhishair if you almost 70 and still drinking kool-aid will you be sober enough to find heaven's door when it is time for you to pass on?

@SW-User You need to repeat it as many times as you need to, to convince yourself of something that is patently false based on the data that you, yourself present. Let's do some simple math. I'll keep it simple for you. You're implying that blacks are shot because they commit more crime. If we assume that people are shot because they commit crime, using the top line of your barely illegible table, there were a total of 10,310,960 offenses, of which 7,115,940 were committed by whites and 2,826,460 by blacks. If blacks and whites were treated equally, whites should be shot 7,115,940/2,826,460 = 2.52 times as often as blacks. Your own data on police shootings indicate that is not the case, and that the percentage of blacks shot by police is higher than expected. And this is the case in every single year you presented, indicating that it is a real difference that requires an explanation. Systemic racism would explain that discrepancy very easily.

@DianaGyana If you are under 70 and still cannot perform simple mathematical calculations, will you even be allowed to enter heaven's door when it is time to pass on?

@windinhishair https://www.ojjdp.gov/ojstatbb/crime/ucr.asp?table_in=2 you read those numbers wrong btw. My point is blacks commit more crimes and are shot less so I don’t know where you’re going with your nonsense but you’re going to have to try harder than that. I and my family have been targeted by police so I don’t buy into this racism bull shit and I’ll debunk it all day long. And you’ll just come out looking as foolish as everyone else I NV these comments
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@SW-User Your own data disprove your point, and in fact you have it exactly backwards based on the data you present, so there is no sense in you repeating nonsense over and over. You personally being targeted by police is disturbing but completely irrelevant to the discussion. In fact, the fallacy of your argument is obvious by simple visual inspection of the data, even before doing mathematical calculations.
DianaGyana · 31-35, F
@windinhishair it appears that you are totally avoiding numbers to fit your own narrative. So stfu
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@DianaGyana I was the one who used the data properly to show the fallacy of the original post. I'm not avoiding the data at all--I'm using it.

Oh, so STFU yourself.
DianaGyana · 31-35, F
@windinhishair fallacy fallacy...the new big word democrats use when they want to be dicks but cannot post their phallus pics🤪🤪🤪🤣🤣🤣🤣

@DianaGyana Пора тебе сосать Путина.
DianaGyana · 31-35, F
@windinhishair even your google translate is broken...and perverted!
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@SW-User It would be better for you than destroying your own argument with your own data over and over, and not even realizing it. Stupid is as stupid does.
SW-User
@windinhishair you’re too tense to even keep up very few people here have even been able to grasps my point. Quixoticsoul is the only one who seems to actually understand what I’m saying here
DianaGyana · 31-35, F
@windinhishair you load your broken russian like your data on google translate and hope for a smart answer
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@SW-User Your obvious lack of English skills is catching up with you. You bots make just enough very odd mistakes to make it obvious you are foreign trolls.
DianaGyana · 31-35, F
@windinhishair it is funny you say we are robots yet here you try to reason with us...shame
SW-User
@windinhishair oh yeah autocorrect changed dense to tense and I’m a bot. You know why I do this shit? It’s because the more I argue with liberals the more I understand them. You guys have no logic it’s like I present an issue and all I get back is “RuSsIaN bOt, OlD mAn CaTfIsH, tRolL” it’s like you guys are programmed you’re all the same
SW-User
@DianaGyana it’s funny they call us robots but every single one of them have the same dialogue.
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@DianaGyana I'm not trying to reason with you--you are both beyond hope. But others can benefit from a true interpretation of statistics.
SW-User
@windinhishair I’m beyond hope but you’re literally calling me a Russian bot and your sexist ass assumed I’m an old man because no way a girl could think for herself
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@SW-User Are you an old man? I never said that or even mentioned gender or age. You must have a very guilty Bot conscience.
SW-User
@windinhishair is this how you really want to spend the final years of your light fighting so hard to live in blatant ignorance
