And Another Study

  • The day after a Minnesota cop was charged in the July shooting death of a black man, an in-depth study purported to show race generally does not play a role in police shootings.

    Among the findings of the investigation released Thursday by the Crime Prevention Research Center: White police officers are not significantly more likely to shoot black suspects; body cameras have had little effect on decreasing police killings; the more cops at the scene, the less likely it is a suspect will be shot.

    The study examined data from 2013 to 2015, a time period which almost perfectly bookends the police killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo., in August 2014, an episode that helped lead to the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement and placed increased scrutiny on police shootings. Yet, the research team of John Lott and Carlisle Moody found the percentage of black suspects killed in the 19 months before Brown’s death (24.8 percent) was almost exactly the same as the percentage killed in the 16 months after Brown’s death (25 percent).
Imagine that. Police profile criminal behavior, and not skin tones, because police know criminals come in all shapes, sizes and colors.

The entire study is here. John Lott is a bright mind and a thorough researcher.

The study will be ignored. It was published by that icky John Lott and he likes people to have guns.

The anal whore media is still following the
orders of the Trotskyite Progressives
and goading the perpetually aggrieved
catered-to constituents into flinging
poop every which way in faux outrage.

Their phony cause knows no pause.

You see...
Ginned-up outrage at the Police keeps
everybody from asking hard, pointy
and awkward questions of people
who refuse to stop grinding the axe
of grievance and take a proper place
at the table with the rest of civilized
society.

"We mighty cuz WE LOUD!"
"Y'all s'posed to be scared of US!"
"De-Fund da Po-leece and give the money to US!"

And our personal favorite:
"We're gonna stick it in the Cops ear..."

The perfect storm of causatives
as to why Chicago is a derelict,
relentlessly violent, flaming shit-show
and the epicenter of national ridicule
for said violence and it's cartoonishly
corrupt elected official class.

Rahm may as well drop all pretense,
put on a lime green union embossed
with black question marks all over
along with a mask and call himself
"Riddler."

Given the current state of affairs,
that would PERFECTLY sum up what's
happening in this town.

No amount of research studies or facts will every deter and convince the progressives, BLM radicals and those liberals with white guilt that they are wrong, just plain wrong.

Facts don't matter.

Black Lives Matter.

But only when blacks are killed by the police. The day-to-day, black-on-black killing is not only expected, it's « accepted ».

With talk about replacing the Superintendent, at this point, who would want to come in and "Clean up?" Think about that for awhile.

The next guy (or girl) would have to still kiss the ass of Rahm, the Council, and the "special people" (reverends, etc, etc.) So how far would they get in turning around the Department?

I think you need MORE new leadership than just a new Superintendent.

New Mayor.

New City Council (preferably smaller in size- 20)

New Command Staff (Currently an oxymoron)

Plus FOP

The ONLY person willing to come in and "work with the Mayor" would be another incompetent, "Yes-man" politician.

Someone competent would never take the job - or if they did, after a couple of days or week, they would walk off in disgust and disappointment.

Never let the truth stand in the way of a good lie promulgated by a progressives/socialists when advancing the social justice agenda of social engineering. Some day all their lies will come back to bite them in their asses with a vengeance. I hope I live long enough to see that day.

The Ferguson incident did not give rise to the black lives matter movement. It was already in place, just waiting for an "incident" to occur.

You could shove the facts, physical hardcore evidence, with charts, pies, graphs, timelines and even expert or eyewitness testimonies, at these assholes. It wouldn't matter, they believe what they want. Fuck em, their movement is based on lies and racism. It will implode like the Democratic Party eventually. The more the media pumps this garbage, and the more the Police continue to be killed while doing their jobs, protecting and serving, people will continue to see through the lies and bullshit.

This study is flawed, and obviously will be retracted. The very idea that black officers kill black thugs at a higher rate than white officers is simply due to the fact that black officers aren't really black. They are blue, remember?

They are fully aware of this. Nobody pushing the racist angle actually thinks that racism is to blame here. It is merely a convenient way to scapegoat and avoid having to address very real problems within the minority community. Additionally, pretending that racism is rampant also allows them to continue the industry of racism fighting, which has enriched the likes of Sharpton, Jackson et al to no end. If they admitted that racism was greatly diminished, their contributions and their careers might dry up. If there are no more boogeymen to fight, then we must invent some, lest the boogeyman fighters find themselves having to get a real job (horrors!).

That is what is so maddening about dealing with leftists. It isn't that they hold their irrational positions because they are in ignorance of reality. That would be easy to address, some basic dialogue and presentation of factual data and things could be worked out reasonably. Nope, they are fully aware of reality and choose to ignore it.

There ain't no fixing that kind of stupid. You can't reason with people who reject reason out of hand. That, IMHO, is why the right has such a hard time dealing with leftists. We tend to be logic based, and to make our arguments based on observable truths and mathematical reality. They don't. We don't speak the same language AT ALL, and we can therefore never come to any sort of compromise.

Theirs is an exceedingly dangerous ideology. They cannot be allowed to rule society because they have the mentality of a small child: entirely driven by emotion and ego. A parent could be laying in a puddle of blood on the floor and their toddler will whine that they need them to get up and make a snack. That's how leftists operate as well. Their moronic policies reduce society to a helpless, half dead mess and then they whine that it isn't working properly and taking care of them.

They belong in playpens, not the driver's seat.

His book, More Guns, Less Crime details how concealed carry reduces violent crime in counties where concealed carry is allowed. In areas where concealed carry is allowed, men were 2.5 times dafer and even 4 times safer than in counties without concealed carry.
