I quit watching the overbearing, NYTimes-is-gospel POS almost 3 years ago.

It seems possible.Murder being the cause of 65%...then lower down you have drugs,car accidents,other things...and police encounters causing 0.15%.

I heard him say it as well. I was driving and listening to Fox News on XM Satellite Radio.

Actually, it was ex-congressman from a Tennessee named Harold Ford, on the panel with Brett Baier. Used to think he was a pretty rational, level-headed guy. Not so much now.

Wallace was correct. You just have to apply the right filters and eliminate the factors that don’t support the conclusion.

He said it. Seems extraordinarily unlikely.

“Unarmed” black men killed by the police was a total of 16 the year before last according to the WaPost.

This might have been the “study” he was referring to

Thank you so much for that link! I will try to run down more on their methodology.

Also the study says that black men are 2.5 times as likely to be killed by police than white men. I’m actually surprised it’s not higher.


They’re something in excess of 5 times as likely to commit murder.
