Looks like Erratic Eric is at it again. The US Attorney General (Holder) is ready to present a study that claims that the Ferguson PD is guilty of systematic racism. I looked through 5 articles on this, and must admit I have not seen one shred of evidence presented by anyone, of any racism on the part of the Ferguson Police.
If anybody thinks they have any, let's hear it.
In the meantime, here's some of the common stuff that some folks are trying to pass off as "evidence" >>
If you believe a 3 year study done on this subject >>
1. In 88% of cases in which Ferguson police documented the use of force, that force was used against Blacks - PROVES NOTHING.
2. In all 14 canine bite incidents for which information about the race of the suspect was available, the person bitten was bLACK. - PROVES NOTHING
3. Blacks account for 67% of the population in Ferguson, but they accounted for 85% of the drivers stopped by police, - PROVES NOTHING
4. Blacks - account for 67% of the population in Ferguson, but they accounted for 90% of the people issued tickets - PROVES NOTHING.
5. Blacks account for 67% of the population in Ferguson, but they accounted for 93% of the people arrested - PROVES NOTHING
Even if all these claims were true, they don't show anything more than that Blacks are involved in criminal activity at a high rate (which is common knowledge already)
