 He claims there is no problem with racism in PD's.....which flys in the face of the evidence.0

 I fail to see how this video is relevant. It doesn't touch on racial bias.mcgruff10 said:

 And am I also to assume from the video that when the police murder civilians it's no big deal because of how much contact they have with the population? We shouldn't criticize them because the civilian population is violent? We shouldn't look to find problems within PD's to try and make them better at their jobs?0

 I disagree since a reputable news agency would check the facts (how the research was done) and others may not.PJ_Soul said:
 Irrelevant, since they site and link to 18 studies. Anyone on the face of the planet could do the same thing, and it would be no less relevant than if the New York Times did it.mcgruff10 said:

 I found this article to be lacking details, and coming up with some ridiculous conclusions. One of the top first sources they cite them as saying "the only thing thing that significant in predicting whether the person shot and killed by police was unarmed was whether or not they were black."
 That's ridiculous because every single case I have seen where someone was shot and killed and unarmed they either resisted arrest or had a toy gun. Seems like pretty significant detail to leave out.
 Go ahead and Google "unarmed white man shot by police" and you'll find matches for that too. I don't have any respect for that article.0

 I know I'm probably wasting my time but, do you know how science works? You know what it takes to publish in a peer reviewed journal? Did you take a look at the links to the studies provided? The details are there....the science is there.....the evidence is there. But that doesn't fit your narrative so you dismiss it out of ignorance. Ever hear of confirmation bias?mace1229 said:

 I think you're not understanding the quote you put in your comment. What that's saying is that looking at the variables, that none are significant in predicting whether a person will be shot outside if race. If you're black, you're more likely to be shot by cops, even if you're doing the same thing a white person is doing. You're wanting to draw conclusions from individual, anecdotal stories and ignore the data.mace1229 said:
