About that "Profiling"

Remember all those warnings about Contact Cards being used against the police like Stop-and-Frisk in New York? Here we go:

• Blacks in Chicago are more likely to be subjected to a "stop and frisk" by police than any other race, a report by the American Civil Liberties Union of Illinois indicates.
  
  The report, released Monday, also says officers in the Second City used the controversial technique far more often than did officers in New York City.
  
  The ACLU said Chicago officers last summer conducted more than 250,000 stops of people who weren't arrested. The ACLU also said that almost three-fourths of those stopped were African American, though they make up about a third of the city's population.

This is a report by the ACLU. There's a reason these assholes are known by various names (All Criminals/Commies Love Us, A Clump of Losers United, etc) They are an agenda-driven set of leftist lawyers who had to be shamed into admitting people have a right to say offensive things. This study is a blueprint of left-wing indoctrination passed along by the leftist media. We could take this thing apart in our sleep. Or now.

First up, the population stats. The report uses this graphic:

See that circle on the right? Black 32% White 32%?  That means that Blacks are not the minority. Oops. So right away, the entire study is suspect.

Next, where's the breakdown of neighborhoods? Chicago is still one of the more racially divided cities around. If you were to take a survey of say...the 003rd District, you'd be hard pressed to find someone who wasn't Black. Same for 006, 007 and a few other places. Any given spread of street stops is going to trend toward a darker skin color. In fact, being pale in those locations is going to attract a lot more attention.

Now, where's the breakdown of Officers at the District level? Dirty little CPD secret - there are certain districts in the city where the vast majority of officers working there are of a certain skin tone and a lot of that has to do with politics. How is a District with 70-to-80% Black officers supposed to be racially profiling a District that is 85-to-90% Black? Actually, how can a White officer working in a District that is 90%-plus Black racially profile?

Finally, the uncomfortable part - hop over to HeyJackass.com and look at this graphic:

That's a tough one to swallow right there for the ACLU - race of attacker and race of victim - and that's just counting the homicides. We're willing to bet the maimings/woundings are similar and the armed robberies and more than a few other crimes. By whatever metric you use, Black criminals are victimizing Black citizens at a rate far outweighing their supposed "minority" status. It ain't the police doing it. The police are trying to stop it, solve it, prevent it.

So yet another bullshit, slanted, slanderous study that points the finger directly at the police, and the ACLU thinks more "oversight" and "checkboxes" and Consent Decrees will solve everything, all while blood fills the gutters.
