Why do we only hear about police shooting black men, for no reason????

Why do we never hear, about why it is, that young black men, as a group, are so prone to violence?

And that being so prone to violence, they will be a disproportionate number of people in encounters with police?

The liberals and media present these stories as, OMG, this young black man was shot or manhandled by police, and the police are racist, yadda, yadda, yadda. But there is never any context given, as to what is going on in these police encounters with these young men.

And we never hear about whites being unreasonably shot. Per capita is comparable, but nobody cares.

What you have is a refusal to admit that the police have the authority to enforce the law. These young Black guys have been pumped full of resistance mentality to the point that when officers approach and expect reasoned things, the Black youth challenges and gets aggressive.

When I was young, I was taught not to oppose the police. I was taught to respect them and follow their instructions. (And of course folks, that’s only if it is reasoned. I’m not to stab someone simply because an officer ordered it.)

If Black youth were taught to abide by the law and respect police officers, there wouldn’t be this problem.

Police officers didn’t target Black areas of major cities just because of who lived there. They did so because of the high crime there.

White communities, low crime, low police presence.

Black communities, high crime, high police presence.

Get your neighborhoods under control, and the police won’t frequent the area. Simple as that.
