There are definitely some concerning statistics about the rate at which the police kill people, but in 2019 all of 1,099 people were killed by police in a country of 300+ million people. That is without a notation on the cause or reason for the killing. Now of those 1,099 people AAs are an outsized portion of that number, but AAa also commit an outsized number of the crimes. There's a problem, but the problem is not just with the police.

It’s also not Ok to blame everything bad that happens on a certain political party which is exactly what happens on this board.

I agree, the way problems that have existed for 20 years now are blamed on Trump is both funny and sad. 


Oh wait, that isn't what you meant...
