| 1422818 | 2016-07-10 09:28:00 | Blacks killed = 100%. What proportion of those were killed by other blacks, what proportion were killed by whites, and what proportion were killed by police officers. Whites killed = 100%. What proportion of those were killed by other blacks, what proportion were killed by whites, and what proportion were killed by police officers. Your stats: People shot by police = 100%. What proportion of those shot were blacks, and what proportion were whites. I'm genuinely a bit confused as to what you want me to do with your stats - they aren't wrong or in any way misleading, but they're different. They don't actually support, or rebut, any of the other statistics or 'statistics' posted here, because they're looking at something different. I want you to get it through your thick skull that some within the Black 13.3% of the population committed 52.2% of the total murders in 2014 according to American Government Agencies. After youve got you head around that dreadful statistic you can look further, but it doesnt really matter whether the murder victims were black, white, brindle, man, woman, boy or girl . they were all murder victims, with the other statistics being purely academic. As for Trumps stats, I too would like to see where they came from, but I find it hard to believe that if they came out of thin air, the opposition havent picked up on it a crucified him. |

| 1422820 | 2016-07-10 10:20:00 | The main point in all of this is: The 'stats' posted by B.M. are complete rubbish, and made up to make blacks look bad. :lol: :lol: The 'stats' I posted we backed up by American authorities, whilst you work purely on personal opinion as do most of your ilk. :lol: |

Righto bud, you've had this coming. If you had an ounce of intelligence, you'd realise the image you posted was re-tweeted by Trump late last year. As to not getting crucified for it: twitter.com www.politifact.com www.buzzfeed.com thehill.com edition.cnn.com www.thedailybeast.com www.factcheck.org I could find more, but I got bored. Maybe next time do a simple check to make sure what you say is true, before you open your mouth and expel stuff that normally comes from the other end. |

| 1422822 | 2016-07-10 11:01:00 | So to post a screen shot of the options, please note that according to the statics more whites have been shot by cops than blacks or any other race. 7299 Just thought I'd check something with your statistics there, nothing difficult, just adjusting for population. You're dead right, more whites have been shot than blacks. This is quite an interesting link - www.theguardian.com So, in fact, the number of blacks per million killed by police is higher than the number of whites. The total number of whites killed by police is only higher due to population differences. Just be a little more careful when you use stats next time - stats will only answer the question you ask. People aren't talking absolute numbers, they're saying a black person is more likely to be killed by police than a white person. Using absolute numbers is a pretty p*ss poor effort at using stats to shed any light on that theory. |

Don't doubt you on that one, never argued it. Kinda hard to check when you have no links to data sources though... :lol: :lol: The 'stats' I posted we backed up by American authorities, whilst you work purely on personal opinion as do most of your ilk. :lol: Can you link to the source there please? A quick check indicated you're pretty much bang on, but it's laughable you'd accuse me of working on personal opinion without linking to your source data (which, I note, I have done). Even when you get it right you still get it so wrong. :lol: :lol: |

| 1422824 | 2016-07-10 19:56:00 | Nick, you already have all the relevant information and there is no point in me wasting further time on hand wringing, bleeding heart, members of the Green Loony Left. | B.M. (505) | ||

I don't, because you didn't link to it when you posted your figures. You calling me a hand wringing, bleeding heart, member of the Green Loony Left is about as accurate as me saying you're an intelligent, rational person with the intellectual capacity to understand the issue you're talking about: not very accurate at all! :lol: :lol: :lol: |

| 1422826 | 2016-07-10 22:25:00 | Not too surprised with the call out on "facts" provable or not, but the interest in NZ concerning US politics even exceeds most US citizens' zeal for this election . Heard on Public Broadcast System (PBS) this AM is that Hillary, if she wasn't running against a Trump would be the single-most-hated candidate to date in US elections on any level including New York's infamous Boss Tweed . Since Trump is in the opposition, they both then share that same distinction: one that lies and cannot be trusted and the other that shoots from the hip and has no political background . I remain neutral on politics as pertains to elections, the elected and the otherwise 'associates' of any of the aforementioned . Interesting Joe . Heres something doing the rounds down here which I got from an ex-naval mate who in turn got it from an ex-naval mate over your way . Just wondering if it had any airing over your way and what the reaction was . If its all correct and above board Id imagine it would give Trump a huge backing . 7304 |

People aren't talking absolute numbers, they're saying a black person is more likely to be killed by police than a white person. a black person is more likely to be killed by another black person, than by a white or a cop . and by a huuuuge margin. where is the outrage over that ? Isnt everyone just being selective as to what fact/stat they want to rally against Perhaps in the US , the issue is the quality of Police recruits, and the quality of the training (or lack of training) Ive never quite understood why US Police are not all centralized under one department/administration for all states, like the FBI for example. Why are there sheriffs,troopers and police of so many varieties depending on the state/city |
