Blacks taste like chicken and latinos like salsa, white meat is bland and needs more garlic.

During the first six months of 2013, 100 percent of the people bitten by dogs in the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department Canine Services were black or Latino.
That's 100 percent. As in every single one.
The data comes from a report by the Police Assessment Resource Center, a nonprofit organization that aims to "strengthen police oversight so as to advance effective, respectful and publicly accountable policing."
Clearly, these people have job security -- they have their work cut out for them in Los Angeles.
According to PARC's records, the number of Latinos bitten by LASD dogs increased 30 percent from 30 bites in 2004 to 39 in 2012. The number of blacks bitten increased 33 percent for the same time period, from 9 to 12. And when it came to the beginning of 2013, white people didn't have to worry about police-initiated animal attacks at all.
It's no secret that L.A.'s law-enforcement officers have historically struggled with racial profiling (that's putting it as mildly as calling Rodney King's infamous brutal beating an "incident"). And just this year, the New York City Police Department was forced to revamp its stop-and-frisk policy thanks in part to data on the shockingly disproportionate number of times that black and Latino men were apprehended by officers.
But seriously -- are man's best friends now profiling perpetrators, too?
Not likely (although there is actually a case to be made that doggie racism is a real thing). Given the context, our best guess is that this is simply more bad news about humans dealing with the whole "a person's race isn't a good reason to decide they're dangerous" thing, which seems to be becoming more difficult to grasp all the time.
Just like judgment calls about who's "suspicious," and determinations about when to pull out handcuffs,

their dogs are smarter than humans!
Bwahahahhahhhahhahhhaaa! I loves me some Chapelle!
When I was growing up (northeast US), I noticed that most dogs barked barked at black people. Not only pets, but stray dogs too.
We had a Longcoat Chihuahua that was a racist. Black people & women in coats.
Gorgeous dog. Absolutely vicious. “Your turn to bleed” was a running joke at our house. (No strangers, just family & friends. Thankfully)
Maybe there are no white people left in LA. They should check.

The same could have been said of me in my single days.

My Shepherds don’t like black people.
Or Muslims. Or Jehovah’s Witnesses. And UPS drivers & all uninvited guests. They especially hate Census Workers of all colors. And every neighbor who lets their little rat dog crap in our yard.
What I’m saying is they aren’t racist - they hate strangers equally, just like their owners, until given a reason to like them. Smarter than most people, IMHO
