Baltimore riots

Results: In all three experiments using a more externally valid research method than previous studies, we found that participants took longer to shoot Black suspects than White or Hispanic suspects. In addition, where errors were made, participants across experiments were more likely to shoot unarmed White suspects than unarmed Black or Hispanic suspects, and were more likely to fail to shoot armed Black suspects than armed White or Hispanic suspects. In sum, this research found that participants displayed significant bias favoring Black suspects in their decisions to shoot.

Conclusions: The results of these three experiments challenge the results of less robust experimental designs and shed additional light on the broad issue of the role that status characteristics, such as race and ethnicity, play in the criminal justice system. Future research should explore the generalizability of these findings, determine whether bias favoring Black suspects is a consequence of administrative measures (e.g., education, training, policies, and laws), and identify the cognitive processes that underlie this phenomenon.

These rioters are the same as a large bloc of American culture - using their incredibly ridiculous racial sensitivity to their advantage to do absolutely anything that they want.

"I'm looting because Police hate blacks" is one of the dumbest statements ever made.

If you REALLY think that's what it boils down to, then that makes you far, far dumber.

It absolutely boils down to that for a large amount of people. They want free shit. Same with the Manchester riots, it wasn't about social class warfare or the Police killing somebody, it was about free shit.

This isn't an issue of race, it's an issue of a bunch of people wanting free shit and using race as carte blanche to morally justify their actions.

Nail on the head, its a problem fueled by "The race industry", those c*nts who jump up screaming racist at the mere fact the "Victim" is black (And make a good living at it like ), yet looking back at the last few of these incidents its clear that they were thugs and thieves with long rap sheets rather than the innocent little angels portrayed.

Are you disagreeing with the report?

More white people than Black die in custody every year, how come the White communities don't riot and loot?

If you represent 64% of the population, of course more white people are going to die in custody every year. But if you really do the math, black deaths are 3 times as high despite having a population 5 times smaller.

because of

Even those numbers may not tell the full story, the level of black Americans is 13% of the population, but they committed 52% of homicides with an overall offending rate seven times higher than for whites ( US Bureau of Justice Statistics, ).

the real issue is the reasons for this

I wasn't discussing the report. I was asking whether the poster had been to Baltimore. I have. I spent 5 weeks there on pre-production eight years ago. This isn't about race. This is about economics. Almost every -ism you can imagine, from racism to sexism to fascism, is exacerbated by poverty. And when people are left with no vote (as is the case) and no money (as is the case) and no levers of control over their own destiny, this is what happens.
Look for more of it to come. Not enough has trickled down, and the cities will continue burning until it does.

So you think these people are thinking "I am taking these Air Jordans as a form of social critique regarding the system of economic oppression in the United States" and not "oh wow, free shit".

It's truly amazing how far people will stretch reality to attempt to rationalize their particular hobby point

Fucking hell, you can talk. Looting? There's all this happening and you're endlessly banging on about and scrutinising the looting? Jeepers, you really have no clue. Have you been to Baltimore, by the way? Have you seen the place? Do you really have the foggiest idea what this is about? Or is it really so reductionist and simple for you? That black and white poor people are inherently inferior to rich people. Because that is where your reductionism leads. I'm a very rich white person and even I have a shred of humanity - I have seen the poverty there. I know what Baltimore is like. You just use what is happening there to vent your spleen against people who are different to you.

And you're blind faith in Txiki is misplaced too, BTW. You'll find out very soon.

You really haven't thought this through have you.

With more black people than white in prison (40% to 34% of the total prison population), it makes even even starker that you are far safer in custody as a black american than as a white one.

I'm gonna guess he's not. I'd assume its more a "treat the disease rather than the symptom" approach

You're denigrating my experience now - what's yours? Listened to a bit of Motown?
As for your precious survey, fifteen states, the vast majority of which were in the American south, did not respond to the survey. Given that the American south has a disproportionate number of black people compared to the rest of the US, I'd say that pretty much invalidates your survey. Now, I'd love to stay and chat with you but I have a flight to catch. Toodle-pip!

Going somewhere for a couple of weeks on holiday?

Be sure to give us a detailed breakdown of the socioeconomic climate wherever it is.

In 6 years time.

It made you laugh because you're a nincompoop. Look up the phrase, "straw man". It might spark something in the vast industrial wasteland that doubles as your brain. But I won't hold my breath. Would love to continue to chat with you, but my flight has been called. Bye all!

no response then?,

i hope no member of your family gets ten bells kicked out of them and their property nicked.

mind you there might be a economic or social issue that might justify it, you never know!
