And the sheriff went on to become a US congressman

I just got tired of having my car searched after getting pulled over for rear tailight bulb out.
Tucker states that more police were murdered by criminals than all the deaths of unarmed civilians of all races by police- Police are not hunting down Minorities like the left claim-
45 police officers were murdered last year-
9 blacks were killed- all but two were justified self defense by the police- so 2 blacks were killed unjustly, the police in those cases were charged and convicted- while 45 police lost their lives- and the left are screaming ‘racial injustice’ and claiming that police all over the nation are hunting down unarmed minorities?
Actually thinking you should make a separate thread for Candace’s video
Some ahole cop pulled me over in TX, saw the grateful dead sticker on the truck, said “Is that some kinda gang symbol boy?”
He demanded to search the truck, I said all your gonna find is some dried up

You were right, thanks, wasn’t posted ... just posted it.
Of course it is a myth. But lies are what leftists use to control the useful idiots who make decisions on emotion instead of logics and facts.

I posted those stats on facebook and got this reply. Why are there different statistics?
The main difference in the stats is one compares people according to race, and assumes behaviors of those people are all proportionately the same; and the other compares behaviors of people, and aligns by race.
Folks shooting at or fighting the police are generally treated the same. Different proportions of different groups choose to engage the police with violence.
Even here, with Floyd, where the police officer(s) responded wrongly, Floyd had been actively fighting with them even while handcuffed. On meth and pain-killers he was more than a match for them. Floyd appears to have been no innocent, though the response to what he was doing should have in no way included kneeling on his neck even after he stopped moving.
[[More than 1,000 unarmed people died as a result of police harm between 2013 and 2019,]]
Tucker’s numbers were compiled from last year’s numbers- the ones above are for 6 years- many more people were shot and killed by police while the last president was in office- numbers have dramatically gone down in the last few years- so much so that only 9 black and 19 white unarmed folks were killed- many of them justifiably
You also have to take i nto account that many folks who get arrested- are arrested while very very high on drugs, alcohol, etc- and will die while in police custody- so these are added to the numbers in that result from link you gave-
As well, some being arrested will have serious medical conditions, and may die while in custody despite being cared for
That is my guess- Tucker’s numbers were based solely on encounters where police had to shoot- and he specifically zero’d in on shootings of unarmed people both black and white- His analysis of the data was more specific cocnernign just one group of deaths- direct result from shooting
The link you gave claims ‘died as a result of ‘police harm’ which I’m sure they include everyone who dies while in custody of anything from drug overdose, to medical conditions even long after they are in jail awaiting charges etc- -
Thanks to everyone posting on here. You’ve clarified several things for me and help me get a picture of what’s going on. It’s too bad that pointing these statistics out can get you called a racist now.
