Saw Heather Macdonald on Levin discussing her new book "The War on Cops".
She is very sharp and and knows her "racist math" aka "statistics".
Some of the statistics she quoted are:
Blacks commit about 75% of violent crimes, police use math to deploy cops to prevent crime, so it is NOT RACISM that there is more police contact in black neighborhoods than in white or in Asian neighborhoods.
Much better to don radical-chic outrage against the police, than to support the police and the hard work of rebuilding inner-city neighborhoods where crime, sadly, remains concentrated.
“It’s important to note that black men commit nearly half of all murders in this country, which is astounding when you take into consideration the fact that they only make up 12-13 per cent of the population.”
Conclusion: All neighborhoods want more policing, not less.
