The vast majority of police officers are fair-minded, but systemic racism remains in our justice system and in our police forces. For example:

• African Americans are 30% more likely than whites to be pulled over for a traffic stop and three times more likely to be searched.
• Unarmed black men were seven times as likely to be shot and killed by police than unarmed white men in 2015.
• When arrested for the same crime as comparable whites, African Americans receive sentences almost 10% longer. "

It's easy to come to the conflusion that the police are racist against blacks and favor whites if you choose to skew the results by excluding asians for these studies. We have to ask liberals why they choose to ignore asians so it skews the results into show the false narrative they want to portray.

Do only liberals keep demographic statistics? I think not...

There are so many variables to consider in that post.

• Perhaps African Americans are 30% more likely to drive fast or run red lights?
• Unarmed black men are seven times more likely to ignore the requests or demands of a police officer?
• African Americans act defiantly and /or impertinent in court, resulting slightly longer sentences.

Unlikely.

Michael Brown as an example is a fallacy of hasty generalization.

See how easy it is to make a hasty generalization.
