Chris Rock was interviewed by Hadley Freeman at The Guardian last week, where he spoke on everything from his divorce, to new Daily Show host Trevor Noah, and of course, racism. Rock seems to think that police violence is just a part of everyday life for young black men, and that “white kids” are never victims of police brutality: “It’s not that it’s gotten worse, it’s just that it’s part of the 24-hour news cycle. What’s weird is that it never happens to white kids. There’s no evidence that white youngsters are any less belligerent, you know? We can go

You know Chris, it's not really weird how you don't seem to notice WHEN the cops shoot white kids.

Chris, you may want to familiarize yourself with something called a Blotter; read a few of them.

My thoughts exactly. It doesn’t make the Front Page because it’s not the type of item that fires up the base.

Duh maybe the white kids are at home are 3AM and not out looting and selling drugs..

[boycott]

Chris,

Maybe more whites have shown that they can act somewhat tame?

Hey CHRIS!

Your ignorance may be excused due to the MSM’s refusal to report such events.

AND

We’re really glad to see your focus and concern regarding all of the Black on Black murder....

I'm pretty sure that young white men end up dying just as often, when taking as a percentage of the crime base, as young black men. And the same with asian young men as well.
