"Jesse Williams: “We know that police somehow manage to de-escalate, disarm and not kill white people everyday.”

Rate has nothing to do with it. For every black shooting there is over 2 of other races...why are 2 out of 3 police shootings OK with you based only on the race of the person shot? Odd....

As for rates, it is about the same racial division as murder convictions....

Rate is very important and has everything to do with it. Jesse Williams is correct. Bernardo de La Paz Sep 2016 #10

"Williams is correct" I'm done. It is a lie and there isn't any other honest interpretation. pipoman Sep 2016 #11
