Hmmmm. So, 100% of black youths killed by cops during the commission of a crime were killed by cops. Okay then, maybe we should get colon kraperknickers input on this.

... watch Chris Rock’s “Obey the Law” video. It’s been pirated / uploaded so many times that the quality is poor but it is most humorous.

Total lie. The leading cause of death among young black men is homicide by other young black men. And then probably drug use or car accidents.

When considering the ratios of black men and crime in general the stats show that they’re disproportionately LESS LIKELY to be killed by a cop.

Plenty of white people are killed by cops but commit fewer crimes per-capita.

I don’t have the numbers handy but this was my understanding.

It is true that being killed by young black men is THE LEADING cause of death of young black men.

Fixed

Cause or effect. Aren’t these related to criminal actions. Related to not result of. Maybe a closer look needs to be taken. Is it a black cultural bias causing this or are all police acting paranoid? Unfortunately liberal media continues their half a$$ reporting.

Good article.

Shows that blacks killed by police (most completely justified) are about 4% of the blacks murdered by other blacks.

So, who is killing black people? Mostly, it is other black people.

For young black men between the ages of 15 and 34, the number one cause of death in 2016 was homicide.

A further breakdown of deaths by age group among young black men due to homicide:

Ages 15-19, homicide accounted for 50.8% of total deaths
Ages 20-24, 49.6% of total deaths
Ages 25-34, 34.1% of total deaths

Compared to the statics of all males in the U.S. in these same age categories, homicide was the third leading cause of death with drastically different percentages of total death attributable to homicide:

Ages 15-19, homicide accounted for 20% of total deaths
Ages 20-24, 18% of total deaths
Ages 25-34, 11.3% of total deaths

IOW - Cops don’t even come close to killing the numbers that they manage among themselves...and very few cop-assisted deaths equate to ‘homicide” the way the Black on Black killings do.
