Yes Paul, he was a 17 year old boy, just like the Miami club shooter was a secret closeted bundle of sticks who totally was not a real muslim in any way and was just frustrated, and the Bataclan shooters were just criminal thugs who were not real muslims, and the Nice truck attacker was not a real muslim because his cousin's ex-girlfriend said so, and etc. Good thing by the time these retarded assertions are conclusively proven to be blatant lies the regressive idiots will have moved on with their ADD mosquito-like attention spans.

Imagine fleeing from your shit country destroyed by your shit religion and then coming to a great country that welcomes you with open arms and takes care of you and then you choose to repay that generosity with hate, rape and murder.

Just two days ago we had a rape of a 19-year old local girl by an Iranian asylum seeker close to an asylum center in Sønderjylland. And 17-year old Emilie has been missing for a week now in Korsør, a small city 20 min. from where I live, where they just had a new asylum center built. The consequences if she turns up savaged by one of the 'refugees' will be far-reaching not only for the already pressed local community but for the nation as a whole. We are not used to shit like this and patience is wearing very thin among even the most liberal of my countrymen.

This is the issue I have with regards to what I understand to be Oberyn's position. Why should I care about my fellow countrymen that much? Realistically, nobody I care about is a potential victim of mass immigration, and that's just the truth. I can understand his logic from a white trash populist point of view, but it doesn't really work otherwise.

Lol you dumb white trash piece of shit, why would you care about this person, you don't even know her.

Maybe women should be escorted by their male relatives.
Maybe they should dress more modestly.
Maybe they shouldn't express themselves so, freely enticing all men.
Micro chipping women should be encouraged, lower insurance premiums etc.

Balance means both sides negotiating and finding solution somewhere in the middle. Not balance in numbers between two sides. Wars can be fought between two equal sides, but war doesn't bring any balance to society.

Regressive leftists how Oberyn calls them, will switch to right because they have shown inability to correct their stance even a little bit, to accommodate them to current situation. Which implies they don't base their actions and stances on logic. That is very dangerous.

Gun platform anyone?

No?

No Xant here saying that guns aren't the issue because just as many people die in attacks where guns are only kinda partially involved?
What a retarded post, even for you. There are gun attacks where no one dies (but the perpetrator, and sometimes not even him). And the truck guy killed MORE people with a truck than the vast, vast, vast majority of people ever manage to kill with guns, even when not working alone. And vehicles are available much easier than guns.

You've got to be willfully ignorant or suffer from some heavy cognitive dissonance to not understand why the "ban the guns" agenda makes no sense when talking about stopping terrorism, right after witnessing someone kill 84 people with a truck in record time, and none of that is changed because some Afghani attacks people with an axe. But I guess understanding this would take some rudimentary logical ability, so hey, no surprise.

Meh, patience has been wearing thin in a lot of british communities for 20+ years especially where I grew up, nothing will happen tho, people will just grumble and then change their lifestyles to fit the surroundings. Basically european people won't be able to go out in their home towns anymore without having to fear for their lives and safety, meanwhile politicians living in fancy houses will tell you everything is fine and anyone who disagrees is racist facist scum.  :|

Vigilantism is rare in well-ordered societies, people expect the proper institutions to take care of such things and will vote accordingly.

As for the political debate climate it is not so here in Denmark, immigration problems are discussed very openly and every major political party is looking to tighten immigration and asylum laws. The nationalist Danish People's Party is currently one of the most influential parties in the country and has been for years.

Even our traditional workers' party, The Social Democrats, seem to understand that mass-immigration and multi-culture is a mistake (at least in regards to African and Islamic culture) and likewise even The Socialist People's Party to the left of them (of course we won't know for sure before they sit in government). Left are only maniacs on the fringes such as The Radical Left and The Alternative who fortunately have little support among the population. On the other hand we have brand new parties to the right of the Danish People's Party (considered 'far right' just some years ago), and 13% of the population would vote for a party with an even more stringent immigration policy than what is currently represented in parliament, as shown by a recent survey.

The media dictate most of where we should be looking at (good or bad). the immigration the hot topic of our times and should stay that way as long as the migration crisis and the war on terror are up.
On the immigration, some media downplay the issue but it serves the anti-immigration bunch too because it becomes increasingly unreasonable to hide the problems.
Frankly, I was a big proponent of unlimited multiculturalism some years back, because I really though that someone from even the most fucked up culture/religious group in the world, that would be born on our soil, educated and supported in our western societies would become just a normal citizen, but there has been so many cases where it was not the case that I'm now slowly drifting toward "west is the best" and that we should limit our "interactions" with the crazy parts of this world even when its people fleeing wars.

Christian legacy, Christian love of one's neighbor bwhaha

Wish I could do nothing of use and be rich and well respected. Only in America, I guess.

Good thing about radicalization or barbarism, how he calls it, is that his kind will lose that little significance they have left. Rome was full of well respected philosophers, right until Vandals slit their throats. One could argue that philosophy reaching its zenith is prequel to decline of society. Our western society is in decline and that is blatantly obvious. We can compare with 'barbarians' to disprove it and make us feel better. But we really should take a good look at ourselves and evaluate our recent results and see if there's any progress.

Never forget, we're discussing here to entertain ourselves in our spare time. He is receiving large chunks of paper money to write pretty much same kind of bullshit. But who cares about my opinion, I ain't Slavoj Zizek... if there is one thing America is at fault, is giving credit to nobody's out of sheer desperation to become relevant in areas it wasn't before.

How effective have truck battering-rams been in killing people inside a club or on a train? Just because 1 person managed to individually kill a whole heap of people and barely used the gun he had to do it, getting most kills from the truck, doesn't mean gun control is meaningless with regards to terrorism. Even with all the health and safety controls in the world an idiot could still find a way to kill himself with a toothpick, that doesn't mean health and safety and control on certain harmful products is meaningless.

Rudimentary logic 1:
- Axeman let lose in an enclosed space on German train. Large number wounded. No deaths.
- Gunman let lose in enclosed space in Florida club. Many deaths.

Rudimentary logic 2:
- Same 17 yr old Afghani attacks same people on the same train. He has a gun. Still no deaths?
- Same self-hating homosexual muslim attacks same people in same club in Florida. He only has an axe. Same number of deaths?

None of that is changed because trucks also kill people in an open crowded setting. But I guess that would take some degree of logical thinking and awareness, unsurprising that you took the bait and unsurprising that you claim 'one attack with an axe doesn't prove shit' whilst claiming that one attack with a truck proves everything. Now that's a retarded post.
Wow, you're fucking retarded.

Yes, because terrorists are limited in their avenues of attack, am I right? It all depends on what map is playing on the server. If it's the gay club map, that's where they've got to attack. Moron.
Title: Re: Germany Train Attack
Post by: Paul on July 20, 2016, 09:47:49 pm
It seems that there are at least two types of attacks lately. Firstly organized ones, done by a group of people. Against these I indeed see no big impact of a gun ban since they will find other methods or ways to circumvent it. I'm afraid there is a lot more to come with exploiting certain bottlenecks(food poisoning whatever). Their weak point might be communication where they can be caught in advance because they are, well, a group that has to organize shit.

The second, much harder to intercept, type seem to be lunatics that radicalize themselves via internet propaganda and finally go ballistic triggered by a personal crisis. While non-radicals might simply jump in front of a train, our mudslime decided to go full Skyrim inside of one. Here I have to agree with Heskey that a gun ban makes a difference. There is usually less planning involved and you grap what you have in reach. If that is a knife or semi-auto only version of an infantry rifle usually has a heavy impact on the death toll here. That keys to a truck trumps all in a certain situation is a different story but you have to have those first too. On average the harder to get a potent weapon, they more difficult it is to do damage.

I forgot the obligatory insult that seems to be state of art lately for whatever reason.
Dropout.

The truck driver was working alone, and why would you need a group of people to access a vehicle?

The fact that someone decides to go on an ineffectual axe-rampage doesn't mean anything, except that it was someone dumb and probably mentally ill in a different way than most terrorists. You can do a lot of damage with an axe, and if the "boy" wasn't a useless limpwristed waste of space, all the gun ban would have achieved is that normal citizens would have been powerless to stop him.

So far the most successful attacks have NOT been done using guns, but using planes, explosives and cars. So what are you supposed to achieve with the gun ban? Nothing, except make normal people have defenseless and force them to rely on the state, which is nothing but security theater because the police does not protect, it counts the points afterwards and acts as a deterrent. Both of which are useless against terrorists. Meanwhile the terrorists will A) acquire illegal weapons and/or B) move to more lethal options, like a truck. If anything, the tunnel vision that people have about guns has affected terrorists as well, which is why this truck attack has the potential to be very bad news once they realize they can cause MORE damage with something other than firearms, all the while having 0% chance of being caught before they act.

They are so oppressed that they don't have access to proper firearms training.
If we only train them to use guns then they will be de-radicalized because we're so inclusive and tolerant.

In general I'm in favor of Gun restrictions, so I was rather surprised when I saw the 2014 Global Terrorism Index (http://www.visionofhumanity.org/sites/default/files/Global%20Terrorism%20Index%20Report%202014_0.pdf) which actually breaks down weapons used in terror attacks by each region. Only 10% of terror attacks in North America and Europe involve guns. Not to mention many of these attacks would have likely just been carried out through another means. Unfortunately, it's rather hard to find an analysis that does this while also linking it to numbers of fatalities.

Of course, that's only terrorist attacks. Homicides and general gun violence is a different story altogether which, in the US's case at least, is still more than enough to warrant heavier gun restrictions. This only means terror attacks are a fairly poor reason to introduce restrictions.

Not to blow that off, but I wasn't persuaded by that information the first time I saw it because it's only correlative. Show me a few studies with a before and after where basically nothing else changed, then I'll concede the point.

My stance for the US is purely pragmatic(or perhaps pessimistic). We're not going to round up all the guns and get rid of them(can't say I agree with the idea anyway), and we're not going to just resolve all the reasons why people commit homicide. Thus the simplest way to have at least a mild impact should be to better regulate who has guns. And my suggestion for how you do that, is to require gun owners to have a bi-yearly mental state examination or something of the sort. Mental health issues are viewed as a stigma in the US anyway, thus this serves two purposes for us.

Press conference to the train attack at Würzburk could actually be a funny one if one shouldn't rather be afraid what the future will bring instead...

so:
Original presumption that Afghan adolescent arrived into Germany 2 years ago is refuted by a new version - he crossed borders at Passau on 30th of June 2015. At 12.20 federal ministr of interior de Maiziére refutes speculations that the teenager actually was Pakistani (he says there is no reason to believe so, there are only indications that he really is Afghan (like a letter to his family, death of his friend if Afghanistan that "made" him to attack the Chinese family). Police then brings the message, that there is Pakistani ID among his belonging, they also add that the teenager looks rather like somebody at his thirties.

in other words:
More than one year after the "refugee" crossed the border of a country that has the law and the order as one of its highest values, where laws are respected more than in any other country, nobody from German officials knows: who the person was, where and how did he cross the borders, where did he came from, how old was he or if he was even threatened by any danger in his home country. But after his death they know for sure, that he deadly "threatened" couple of people while two of them are still in the hospital fighting for their lives; and if they survive they will bear consequences of the attack until they die.

Quote
The number of children seeking asylum in Sweden has exploded over the last ten years, presumably because children are granted asylum much quicker than adults, and Swedish authorities don't verify the age of these "children." Refugees are allowed to bring their entire family to Sweden once they get residency status.

Quote
Other countries have been successful in using various methods to establish the age of people claiming to be children, but this practice is considered invasive and "bad" in Sweden these days. Recently, a survey in Denmark showed that 72% of asylum-seeker "children" were actually adults. The fact that Denmark carries out these controls could explain why only 818 children sought asylum there last year, compared to Sweden's 7,049. Finland and Norway also conduct age tests, and estimate that 66% of those tested are over 18.

In September 2014, social commentator Merit Wager wrote:

"That there should be such a huge discrepancy between Sweden and other Nordic countries when it comes to the age of unaccompanied 'children' seems highly unlikely."

Wager quoted Anders Thomas, who worked for the Immigration Service for eight years:

"It was a bizarre experience, to sit there and investigate '16-year-olds' who were obviously closer to my age. Back then, you had the option to do age verification; that is not the case today, when pretty much all the people who claim to be children are let in. What happens when these grown men start high school along with real 16-17-year-olds?"
http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/6190/sweden-refugee-children

Kristianstadsbladet was even insane enough to write an article about one of the refugee men, holding him up as an 'inspiration' and an 'idol' to the other children in the Swedish school, 'the fastest 14-year-old', though the article seems to have been pulled after public ridicule.

Not to blow that off, but I wasn't persuaded by that information the first time I saw it because it's only correlative. Show me a few studies with a before and after where basically nothing else changed, then I'll concede the point.
There have been before/after "experiments" in US towns, and the results have been the same. In fact, sometimes crime and homicides increase after guns are banned. And how is it "only correlative"? The data clearly shows that guns aren't the problem by comparing states and countries with different gun laws, and finding no correlation between gun laws and amount of homicides. It's common sense, too. US has more homicides than European countries because it's a cultural melting pot, and has many ghettos.

Because 50 states and a couple dozen countries is a relatively small pool for how complex societies/communities are. There is a huge degree of variance between each state. What are the factors that allow for a community to pass gun control laws? Can both high crime and low crime + progressive population lead to gun control? I'd imagine so, but this is the type of thing that will just obscure the data. So without proper controls, you're taking a risk by drawing conclusions one way or the other from this type of data.

Regardless of whether or not this data had convinced me, you won't convince enough people for it to matter without better data because it's just too easy to imagine a scenario where if you just took a gun away from the culprit, you would have a less severe situation.

What you can conclude from the data is that you can't say guns are the problem and reason for the amount of homicides, and that's the point. The burden of proof is on the ones claiming that different gun laws would result in less homicides.

If the data is "inconclusive", that means you can conclude you can't say guns are the problem and the reason for the amount of homicides. That doesn't mean it proves the pro-gun lobby right, it just means it proves the common argument of the anti-gun lobby "just look at US homicide rates" wrong. Even the most favorable reading of those statistics for the anti-gun lobby is at best "inconclusive", i.e., not supporting their argument, and at worst it completely counters it.

(click to show/hide)


Point is, they shouldn't be there. They are so much richer, stable and developed than the rest of the countries there, that it doesn't make any sense at all.
Reason is of course easy access to guns, of which around 75% of their homicides can be attributed to. (2012:  8,897 firearm related murders)

Now, how fucking thick you have to be, to understand that having lots and lots of guns makes it more likely to use one? It's a quick, effective and safe tool to ensure murder for the killer. It's much less messy than using a knife, especially now that DNA goes everywhere. It's also way easier for suicide than to hang yourself or other slow, painful or unsure methods that require planning and meticulous execution. (Buy, get medicine, be guaranteed alone for hours or whatnot. Many people change their minds or are unable to successfully do it when they are in that mood. A gun is a press of a button. )

I can kind of understand it if you are a criminal, or under high risk of violent criminal activity for some reason. Or if you simply love guns. (Guns are fun, I shot the G3 and mp5 in the army, was even a decent shooter.)

I understand the country is flooded with guns, and it would be a long undertaking to reduce the amount, but you have to start somewhere. And that is, to at the least, ensure that if people want guns, they have to be a member of a club, take a shooting exam, and know how to use and store their firearms. Maybe even a mental checkup/doctors paper every 4-5 years. It really isn't too much to ask, similar things are required for drivers.

More guns makes it more likely to choose to use a gun. Your argument only works in cases where no other type of weapon that is of relatively similar ease to acquire could have been used to commit the murder. Some people might just be dense, but I have a feeling they just want a solution that actually gets to the heart of the problem(why people commit murder in the first place).

It's like nerfing one handers and polearms because you can't figure out how to only nerf two-handers. Except that we're talking about people's rights, whether you think they're justified or not, it takes a lot to convince a person to give up one of their rights.

Well, as you obviously know, it's impossible to travel back in time, remove the gun, and see what happens.

We are left with logic and common sense:

For example, what if the guy you wanted to murder wasn't standing with his back to you? Attacking him with a knife, especially without training would be a high risk proposition. He could wrestle the knife from you, and kill u with it.

If both have guns, there's another game theory layer, the only option that will guarantee your survival is to shoot first. You don't even need to know for sure that he has a gun, just the reasonable chance is enough to make it advantageous for you to pull the trigger.

That's just two pretty common situations where guns raise the stakes and makes murder much more likely.

How hard is to understand that letting people, PEOPLE, the average and below idiots, carry and play with tools which can murder anyone on the slightest temporary mental whim. It's insanity.

For collectors, gunlovers, and people generally able and motivated enough to take a course, do an exam and get a mental checkup, let them have whatever they want I say.

Yes, we can't know. That doesn't mean you can take your opinion and call it "logic and common sense."

Knives are better in close quarters than firearms. And in how many situations would it be impossible for the attacker to wait for his victim to turn his back? To get a car and drive him over? To hit him in the head with a stone? And so on. Those statistics don't exist, yet "common sense" suggests most murders don't have to happen on the exact second that they happened, and the attacker could have adapted their attack to a different tool. If you really want to kill someone, then I'd say it's extremely unlikely you decide to not go through with it simply because you don't have a gun.

Then there's another thing to consider: how many murders DON'T happen because the potential victim is armed, or the would-be murderer thinks they might be armed?

Europe has far less black people than America, and most of those in Europe were people who were seen to contribute something to society, i.e., university students, engineers, professors, etc. Now that EU has opened its doors to all kinds of migrants from Africa and the Middle East, the crime rates are steadily rising, and will get completely out of control once the percentages are high enough to create a ton of ghettos.
Title: Re: Germany Train Attack
Post by: Beauchamp on July 27, 2016, 04:01:35 pm
alright - first lets specify what the argument is about.

my argument is: usa has higher homicide rate not due to guns, but due to black people (the guns also make a difference, but marginal one).

as far as eu and black people go - i don't really know because there are no separate stats for black homicides in eu (or i haven't found them) so i don't have the answer. personally i think that since black people are in general more temperament, less educated etc. the eu will have similar figures per capita, maybe a bit better in favor of eu black people compared to us black people because there are less black people in europe and in much smaller concentrations (they can't really form ghettos where crime rates just skyrocket). but ask me in 20 years if migration from africa goes the same way as it goes now.

i don't want to say, that the homicide rates are higher because black are black (color itself won't make anyone a retard), but because black are unluckily far less culturally developed, educated and all this similar stuff in general - and this is the problem. and in ghettos these problems multiply.

Post by: Grytviken on July 27, 2016, 08:14:54 pm

There is clearly no correlation here (even solely within the US data) between % Black in your population and homicide rate. Colorado has the highest % Black of those within 0.5% of England, but nearly half the homicide rate of Alaska which has the 2nd lowest % of black people in their population. West Virginia has a lower % black than Washington but more murders per capita. I'd like better data ideally since I had to get the UK stuff from a different source, between even within the US using data compiled in the same place using the same definitions, there is no obvious link between % black and murder rates.

So if 'The Blacks' aren't causing all your relatively high homicide rates, I wonder what else could be... hmmmmmmmmmmmm. Now tell me, if I were to google the respective gun laws for these US States, would I find more stringent firearm controls in a State such as.... Iowa with it's 1.2 homicide rate as compared to say.... Alaska which has over 3 times that homicide rate? I'm sure I wouldn't right?


At 13% of the population, blacks committed half of homicides in the United States for nearly 30 years. DOJ statistics show that between 1980 and 2008, black people committed 52% of homicides. In 2013, black criminals committed 38% of the murders. Whites accounted for just 31 percent.

The bigger problem also lies within the actual stats used to account for "white" crime and murder. Also we're not even getting into Hispanic crime rates which are also disproportionately high.

Adding a lot of variables here Beachamp. But let's test the statement that the US has a higher homicide ratenot due to guns but due to black people as best as we can....







Stats are fun to play with aren't they?
 Now compare the state of New Hampshire to Washington D.C.  NH has very liberal gun laws and a very low black population percentage wise.  Blacks compose 1.1% of the total population in NH.  The District of Columbia has very restrictive gun laws and blacks constitute 50.7% of the population.  The gun murder rate in NH is 0.4/100,000 and in D.C. it is 16.5/100,000. 
So according to that compilation and interpretation of stats, blacks, not guns, cause high murder rates.

Stats are fun, to test the exact hypothesis that Beauchamp gave me:
Blacks cause the extra crime rate in the US and that if there were no Blacks then the US would have the same crime rate as your average European country.

I tested this by comparing states with a similar % of Black people to a European country I could easily get stats for. There are limits to this, but it wasn't designed to answer the big questions only to test a poorly conceived hypothesis.

As for your post, I don't remember Beauchamp wanting to compare State by State, only prove that they only have more homicide than European countries because of Blacks. That is a provably false claim, take any US state with the same % of black people as a European country and the homicide will be the same or worse.

The first claim of Beauchamp "That US without black crimes would have the same crime rates than EU countries" could still hold with your test Heskey but with a variation. Blacks in european countries due to better (economical) integration have the same crime rate than any other EU citizens while blacks in US residing in poor economical situation deal major dommage to the US crime rates (and account for a bigger proportion of this crimes). I have already posted stats in another thread that the economic stituation of the place where you reside was more relevant to explaim crime rates than ethnicity in the US.

Edit: I now see his second claim:
" i think that since black people are in general more temperament, less educated etc. the eu will have similar figures per capita, maybe a bit better in favor of eu black people compared to us black people because there are less black people in europe and in much smaller concentrations"

I call bullshit on this one and i think stats can easily prove it wrong. Many places in Europe have important black populations but don't have an overrepresentation of blacks in crime stats.

Stats are fun, to test the exact hypothesis that Beauchamp gave me:
Blacks cause the extra crime rate in the US and that if there were no Blacks then the US would have the same crime rate as your average European country.

I tested this by comparing states with a similar % of Black people to a European country I could easily get stats for. There are limits to this, but it wasn't designed to answer the big questions only to test a poorly conceived hypothesis.

As for your post, I don't remember Beauchamp wanting to compare State by State, only prove that they only have more homicide than European countries because of Blacks. That is a provably false claim, take any US state with the same % of black people as a European country and the homicide will be the same or worse.

I was responding to your specific claim:
"So, if firearms are not the issue and it is infact Black people who are responsible why do none of these US States have a lower Homicide rate than England?"

I used statistics to "prove" that it is the percentage of black people in a US population, not lack of gun control that determines the murder rate much in the same vein you used statistics to "prove" your point.  This reinforces the old saw "there are lies, damned lies, and statistics".

I used statistics to 'prove' my point because I was given a clear hypothesis that was provably false.

I was invited to compare the US without black people to any European country. Which seemed like a flawed test because then I'm comparing apples and oranges, 2 nations with different stats across the board (normally) and removing black people from one population but not the other. The 'proof' in this case was simple as I was invited to compare homicide rate between US and European countries, so did so in areas with consistent levels of black people.  I only needed specific stats, because I was testing a specific claim.

My claim that you were responding to, is not a claim but a question:
"So, if firearms are not the issue and it is infact Black people who are responsible why do none of these US States have a lower Homicide rate than England?"

A question you have still failed to answer. If firearms are not the issue, why do none of these US States that have the same % of black people as England, have much higher homicide rates?

If you are still adamant that it is the black people and not the guns, then that begs the further question of why American black people are so much more violent than European black people.

Heskey alot of this has to do with poverty and an acceptance of welfare culture, welfare dependence usually leads to the voluntary segregation of people based off of poverty whether they are white black or hispanic. There are also major anomalies when trying to understand US statistics, one is that hispanics are often automatically categorized as white greatly inflating white crime statistics and another is that African immigrants, many from Nigeria and Ghana that happen to be some of the most highly educated people in the US with 2/3's holding degrees already broke thru this socio-economic barrier on their own and commit virtually no crime, so black demographics don't necessarily mean more crime and white demographics don't mean less crime.

We all know white people commit crime too and you can reasonably expect a higher % among white americans compared to euro whites solely off the fact that guns are widely available in some US states. Also it would be naive to underestimate how dangerous some of these welfare slums can be and how high they can inflate crime stats, even if they are a very small demographic proportion of a cities population...

It's actually pretty simple, if you are receiving free money from the government and they find out you have another source of income they will cut you off, so gangs form in these segregated areas, drug territories and other illegal rackets are setup so they can make more money illegally on top of what they are getting, this form of welfare culture is well established in many US cities.

First, the murder rates are not much higher.  They are higher that's true.  Part of the reason, that your stats can't account for, is given below.

I don't need to answer that question.  That was a task you assigned yourself.  I wanted to answer your assertion about guns being the problem rather than violent people being the problem and I showed you the statistics that "proved' (as much as stats can prove anything and everything) that that may not be the case. 

You have answered your own question as to why this might be true.  US black people do have a higher level of violence than Euro black people.  There must be a myriad of reasons.  Lack of education and concomitant lack of employment, family instability, high rate of unwanted pregnancies, drugs, a pernicious cycle of poverty that encompasses generations, and entrenched attitudes on all sides of the color line.

Shooting by police mostly happens during criminal activity so proportionally more shot are those ethnics that are proportionally involved in more crimes (black people are typical example).
What school did you finish if I may ask?
i studied at the university of retards from 1723 to 2034.
No, a Harvard study showed that there isn't a racial bias in who the police shoot.  They shoot everyone equally :?

just to clarify, that was supposed to be a joke on the stereotype that police shoot black people all the time. clearly you two have no sense of humour because i for one know my jokes are top notch and are rivaled by nothing so the only logical conclusion is that you're both wrong and i'm right.
