The report also shows that police continue to stop Black and Latino drivers at disproportionate rates and that dozens of police agencies fail to report traffic stop data, as required by state law.

...The statistical BS continues with the "disproportionate" meme getting beaten to near-death.

Until they give police a list of offenses that minorities are allowed to commit with impunity, traffic stops should be a figment of their imagination.

In fact, the FOP (local, state and national) should declare a moratorium on all traffic stops until such time as there is an active and updated list of stops that cops are allowed to perform. Let the public live with these decisions made by useless politicians until they elect actual Law and Order types.

A comment from the site:

I work in a community that is 95% or more black. Odds are really good that if I made 10 stops a night, that the chances of pulling over 10 back drivers is very high. There’s not many white people driving at 10pm at 72nd and Sangamon. Therefore, if only black peoples are driving in a certain area, and some of them are committing violations, then mostly black people in that area will be stopped. I can’t stop white people in an area where there are no white people just to make the aclu happy. Also, if I’m in 007, 006 or 011 im most likely there because of the insane crime that happens on a daily basis.. police attempt to stop crime by conducting traffic stops in areas where crime is happening… I know this truth really kills the liberals, but black and brown neighborhoods have higher crime… therefor police do more stops in order to quell crime. In 016, there are not many shootings or homicides.. less crime, less aggressive officers and less need to try and quell crime.

They actually did a very thorough objective investigation of driving while black:

https://www.staugustine.com/story/opinion/2014/09/08/ann-coulter-speed-kills-racial-profiling-study/16104153007/

Turns out blacks were cited more because they sped more.

Since that result was not the desired result, the study was memory-holed.

Blacks get stopped more often because they commit more crimes. That’s an inconvenient truth.

But wait. There’s another part to the story. Cops will often stop and harass people (of all colors) for no reason at all. That’s another inconvenient truth.

It’s a real mess. However, there is at least a partial solution. Trump wants to bring industry back to America. That would mean good jobs for urban blacks. As it is now, idle hands are the devil’s workshop.

If you look around you at the traffic, you cannot tell who or what is driving most automobiles. The windows are so dark and at night impossible to see through, a cop doesn’t know whether he’s stopping a white, black, Latino or a Martian. Same goes for males, female or other..................

It’s not just driving, if cops actually enforced jaywalking around here, there would be a real uproar.

What you’re expressing is “common sense.” But, the enemies of common sense are not interested in solutions.

Their aim is destruction (the fundamental transformation of America)!

And based on a tour of my neighborhood yesterday, it has occurred. Beside that flag, that I fly everyday, there was one other U.S. flag and some red, white and blue bunting on three homes in the neighborhood.

What does that tell you?

You, more than anyone, know that a lot young kids died fighting for the ideals which that flag represents!

A local cop told me last year that 90% of the Chrysler 300s he pulled over, the driver had committed some sort of a crime (I assumed this meant outstanding warrants for speeding, etc. Possibly even completed ones)

I responded in disbelief - I tried to re-ask regarding his statement, he insisted that this was factual.

The guy they caught doing multiple armed robberies here - I believe he was in a Chrysler 300 - 9 robberies total including the last one, which he attempted on a guy I know (had also robbed him before - this time he hit the silent alarm button) - the perpetrator also fit other profiles...

Parse that as you prefer

Buddy sent me this video, some black podcaster gal, not Candace Owens but similar age and attitude.

Punchline was “If we don’t like how other races think black people are thieves or criminals, then perhaps we should STOP STEALING!”.

She previously noted you never see people robbing grocery stores or necessities “for their family” - but instead loot “Jordans, Gucci, Rolex and Tesla”.

Perhaps they are disproportionately breaking the law?

“The report also shows that police continue to stop Black and Latino drivers at disproportionate rates”

Disproportionate rates relative to what? Disproportionate relative to the rate of traffic violations being committed? Or disproportionate relative to their fractional makeup of the general population?

There is an absolutely enormous gulf between the two.

Sounds like a one-man crime wave to me, which probably happens more often than we know.

Steve Sailer made a thorough study of the consequences of police shying away from enforcement of both traffic laws and other infractions of minorities after the George Floyd death; a summary of what he found is given in this quote of his on ‘X’ (Twitter): “The key to understanding what happened to homicide rates in June 2020 during the “racial reckoning” is that not only did black homicide deaths explode, but so did black traffic fatalities. Occam’s Razor suggest cops stopped black drivers less, so they sped and packed guns more.”

Bottom line: whatever the relative proportion of traffic stops are based on race, fewer traffic stops for blacks translates to more dead blacks.

We live in Memphis. My wife gets pulled over every week by the cops. Never any tickets, but some sort of documented driver infraction with a courtesy warning. The cops are taught this to help with statistics and yet be safe.

She's white, over 55, modest 20 year old car well maintained, insured, registered, proper tags, perfect driving record, attractive, and polite.

Nothing like the other 90% of drivers that are feral scoflaws operating with no tags, no license, no registration, dark tint windows, billowing dope smoke, and black.

On July 1, 2024 Illinois made its legal for Illegals to get an Illinois Drivers License - the Insurance requirement was also waived. If you get hit in Illinois by an Illegal you will have to use your insurance and pay your deductible.
