Testifying at a Senate hearing on Tuesday, FBI Director James Comey agreed that it is hard to address the issue of implicit bias in policing when there is no reliable data on the races of the people involved in police actions.
This is one of the most important issues we confront in the FBI I think we confront as Americans, Comey told Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.) who raised the issue of race and policing. Every conversation, in my view, about the use of force and race and policing in this country is uninformed.
But Comey plans to change that: We will build a nationwide database
that shows us what happened, who was involved, what were they like, what were the circumstances, so we can have informed conversations, he told the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. (A day later, Comey told a House panel he expects the database to be up and running in a year or two.)

So - if 100 Blacks commit crimes and 60 of them are caught/brought to justice, and 18 Whites commit crimes and 17 of them are brought to justice, then there’s obvious implicit bias.........Affirmative action taken to the next logical place by limiting allowable prosecution of Blacks.
Comey, you exaggerate. Can't be more important than Muslim Outreach.
Shock, surprise ...NOT. He’s parroting ILLary Clinton & Barry Omuslim.
Won’t have to look for bias. It will already be built in.
What about the Federal Government’s bias against honesty, patriotism and traditional values?
So the ol’ weasel thinks he can find “intent” after all. Not with Hillary, but with every law enforcement officer, arresting a criminal for committing crime.
< They should start with their own Bureau and Director.
Might as well include the President and all members of Congress while they’re at it.
Worked for Obama on everything from unemployment numbers to falsified gun statistics....
Whether you label it progressivism, socialism, communism or fascism, its all just the same collectivist tyranny, varying only by degrees of bloodshed and fashion choices. - Kurt Schlichter
Guy can’t find criminal intent in 30,000 deleted emails, 8 smashed phones, 3 missing laptops, and a wiped server, but he can find “implicit bias” in all white people in America.
The point here is to federalize police.
The database is intended to provide the justification to intimidate and/or terminate local police.
It’s what they did in Ferguson: When Holder’s DOJ found they could not pull off the goal of putting Officer Wilson in prison, they turned their attention to the Ferguson police department as a whole.
They compiled a statistical database “proving” that the Ferguson police department had disproportionate interactions with African-Americans and used the “racism” they found to justify federal “oversight” of that police department.
Comey and Lynch want to do that to the entire country.
FBI Director: ‘We Will Build a Nationwide Database’ to Detect Implicit Bias in Policing
This will fail as soon as they find out they have to start with their boss.
If this were a “fair” system, there’d be a 50-50 chance that it doesn’t find implicit bias (presumably against minorities).
Is there ANYONE who believes this new system will not find implicit bias all over the place? Anyone?
Technology is never a substitute for good management...............
but is the first place incompetents go.
“Databases that have logic and a real-result...are worth building...like real statistical info on major league baseball players, or marketing jello to the public. But I just dont see how youd fill a database on bias and cops.”
You’re thinking as if this were a serious attempt to address a serious question. This is incorrect. This is a tool to be used in political witch hunts, nothing more. The input data will be modified until it returns the result the masters want.
Mainly, these results will be twisted to show how white cops in black and hispanic neighborhoods cite and arrest minorities at a higher rate than they do in white neighborhoods. Then they will tout the data through the media mouthpieces. The politicians will grandstand and beat their chests talking about how concerned they are and how they will “address the problems identified by the system” or some other BS.
They’re only different names ultimately, but the main difference between the communists and other names is the immediate insistence on establishing state atheism.
We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that weve set. Weve got to have a civilian national security force thats just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.That is definitely his expression of desire to have his own KGB or Gestapo.
Obama, July 2, 2008
Yeah.
Next we will hear that instead of working to lock up criminals the F.B.I. too has mooselimb out freaking reach as its main function.
Hey Comey, you really f-ed the agencies rep pal.
Benedict Comey is what he is.
Disagree. Comey is very good at what he does.
yeah its what he does is what is wrong...tried to be “slick” with hillary and he blew that one wide open everyone now know how he stands on ethics honor and integrity..none-
