Are you kidding me?
 

Are you kidding me? It’s happened to Tim Scott a Republican senator seven times. Have you ever asked an African-American about it? Show me anything that says it’s a myth other than the opinion of people who want to believe it’s a myth.

You are correct. What doesn’t fit the media narrative doesn’t get reported. And what does get reported is distorted. Blake now admits to Wisconsin DOJ he had a weapon on the floor of his car, a knife, while he was reaching down inside his car. If the black community had a reputation for being law abiding, hard working instead of welfare dependents then there would be no issue with the police. Why doesn’t the media give attention to the successful blacks to create a more positive image?

Race and policing in America: 10 things we know | Pew Research Center

if anyone cares to read facts

Plenty of people claim it. Luckily more police now wear body cams to expose the truth.

NAACP president in SC says he was racially profiled; body cam video shows otherwise

Swoop, thank you for directing me to the news coverage of this arrest.

What this suggests to me is that police need to be retrained to NOT rely on guns or brute force for many situations. I don’t know what the answer is, but this has got to change.

How did you ever watch MSM???? Couldn't find it on Comcast lineup.

Cutting the cable is the cure for the affliction.

This is a survey of opinions not facts. The fact are in a 2019 Report by Michigan State University that I posted about a week ago. What you think are facts are just incorrect perceptions.

When I checked there is no such station as msm anywhere MSNBC?

I would imagine he didn't have a funeral fit for royalty either!

really? the Pew Research Center : Pew Research Center is a nonpartisan fact tank that informs the public about the issues, attitudes and trends shaping the world. We conduct public opinion polling, demographic research, content analysis and other data-driven social science research. We do not take policy positions.

but maybe this one will be more scientific for you.

Findings - The Stanford Open Policing Project

There are more whites than blacks, so yah, there are probably more whites killed than blacks. Second of all, if George Floyd was white, he would have been treated to a big mac before heading to jail like the white guy that shot up and killed several of the churchgoers, but instead ended up with a knee across his neck for several minutes until he died. Nothing to see here.

So true!

[QUOTE=Swoop;1823796]What is racist, is the news media selectively deciding what stories you see, based solely on race. Again, if Floyd had been white, his story would not have made it to the national news outlets. Tony Timpa’s death was startlingly similar, but he was white. That’s why you never saw his story, or know his name!![/QUOTE

well, then you didn't look very hard: and this was from cnn, nytimes, washington post
