When those of the black urban criminal subculture present themselves as targets to police, they get shot
“......officers are more careful when confronting black suspects because they know a fatal shooting will open them to controversy.”..............
Which could also cause them to get shot by that same black man. The race of any person should never be a factor in deciding to shoot or not, providing the threat is real.

Similar statistics were released by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in the “Uniform Crime Reports.” They determined, “In the year 2008, black youths, who make up 16% of the youth population, accounted for 52% of juvenile violent crime arrests, including 58% for homicide and 67% for robbery.” By contrast, the only categories where white youths surpassed blacks were in liquor law violations and driving under the influence.

Facts are facts...
The Knock out game. polar bear hunting and the EXTREMELY high yet VERY under reported black on white crime stats.......
Maybe the question should be are whites purposely being targeted by blacks ,IS LEO perhaps aware of this and are they acting accordingly??
For those who have never watched The First 48, watch it and decide for yourself.
The LMSM continue to push a false story line. So what else is new?
Why is the Ferguson, MO, story line false? Just take a look at the story line itself! According to the story line the American Police Force, as a whole, routinely go out and kill unarmed black men that have committed no crime other than being black.
If that is so - where are the routine reports of such events happening on a daily or weekly basis?
The reason that Ferguson got the coverage that it did is because it was an unusual event; otherwise it wouldn’t attracted so much attention from the LMSM.
Please, if you have other, documented, examples of police shooting black men because they are black post them. Otherwise realize that we have been and are being feed a lie that the LMSM are trying to masquerade as the true.
True but deadly force should only be used against deadly force. A fleeing suspect suspected of murder or rape should be shot but not in other situations. No knock drug busts have to be better orchestrated and they have to cut out this crap about shooting dogs on sight. Let them carry pepper spray.
The cops - in too many cases - are too eager to employ deadly force.
The metric used in the question, “more,” is incendiary. The question should include a component of unjustified use of deadly force. I submit that “targeted” is even MORE incendiary, because the police are (generally) not out looking for “targets.” Public spaces aren’t, other than exceptional cases, a shooting gallery where the cops are choosing who to use force against. The decision to use force is reactionary.
The article mentions the disproportionate amount of traffic stops and arrests police make on black motorists and I would like to offer some insight.
When you commit a traffic violation, you should expect to get stopped and get a citation. However, when you decide that you are going to ignore that citation or you can’t pay it because of your economic status, then there are consequences, like warrants for Failure to Appear and In-State Suspensions.
Many of those initial traffic violations also reveal no proof of insurance, a violation that has an immediate suspension of license if found guilty.
I can tell you from experience there are probably hundreds of thousands of active warrants in the St. Louis Metropolitan Area and most are for black citizens. It is what it is and even Amnesty days are not helping. Some of it can be attributed to economic status and some to direct defiance of being accountable.
So, yes black citizens are being arrested disproportionately but not inappropriately.
“........deadly force should only be used against deadly force.”.....
Getting your brains beat out by some 300 lb. “gorilla” who has already attacked and cause you severe injury, puts YOUR life in danger. It is pretty obvious what the “beaters” intentions are up to that point so, tTo stop the threat of YOUR OWN DEATH, deadly force, IMO is justified.
Whitey need do more thug’n, not fair!
My message is to get violent, black males off the streets and into the prisons or coffins where they belong.
Indeed. Murders in Chicago almost never make national news because they are so common. A murder in my county a few years ago, however, made national news--probably because murder is so rare here.
And you have to be granted the latitude to decide whether the force used against you is deadly. That's not always easy. A 300 lb. gorilla can overpower and kill a smaller man with his bare hands; and if you have a weapon, he can take it from you.
What do you expect from a culture that has 72 percent of black babies born to unmarried mothers today. In 2012, 67 percent of black children live in single-parent homes. How do children learn those moral values to live in a civil society with such conditions? Then, you have that situation coupled with the illegal drug industry entwined into the black community like a snake squeezing the life out of it. If Darwin ever wrote a script for the demise of a species, this would be it.
Police homicides? Is that the FBI's term for it or the New York Times term for it?
If the per actually DID assault or threaten to assault the officer, that is correct.
NYT: keep omitting the fact that they commit 4 times as much crime as the opposite color.
