Neverending **** the Police thread.

Metaphysicist said:
Goalposts haven't moved. Racism is systemic in the criminal justice system. Our system of policing, as it currently exists, is bad and harmful to society; this affects all races, but minorities feel it the most. These are basic realities that shouldn't be controversial. The fact that conservatives in this thread refuse to accept these simple facts shows exactly why people are protesting.

Basic realities evidenced by what? Where is the obvious abnormalities in the data which prove this?

If its as bad as you all say the answer to this question should be simple.
 
In their book “Suspect Citizens,” Frank R. Baumgartner, Derek A. Epp and Kelsey Shoub reviewed 20 million traffic stops. In an interview with The Post, they shared what they found: “Blacks are almost twice as likely to be pulled over as whites — even though whites drive more on average,” “blacks are more likely to be searched following a stop,” and “just by getting in a car, a black driver has about twice the odds of being pulled over, and about four times the odds of being searched.” They found that blacks were more likely to be searched despite the fact they’re less likely to be found with contraband as a result of those searches.
 
A study of stop and frisk incidents in Boston between 2007 and 2010 that did not result in a citation or arrest found that 63 percent of such stops were of black people. Blacks made up 24 percent of the city’s population. Incredibly, 97.5 percent of these encounters resulted in no arrest or seizure of contraband.

How in the world do you review 20 million of anything?

ETA... if you reviewed 1 per minute non-stop, it would take 38 years.

Quoting the black population is irrelevant. Man, people suck at analyzing data and creating homogenous populations.

Technology. You know all the buzz words. AI. Big Data. Machine Learning. Voice recognition. Try to keep up.

Every time I fart my cell phone records it and sells that information to someone. I just wish I was getting a cut of it.
