    Yup. Some forums would call it the circle or known as gossip circle.

    A police officer is 18.5 times more likely to be killed by a black person than an unarmed black person is likely to be killed by police. I'd heard that statistic before but couldn't remember it exactly.

    The numbers put out there by Ms McDonald are pretty hard to reconcile with the narrative that the problem is cops killing blacks indiscriminately.

    Blacks are killing blacks indiscriminately. Something in black culture is the problem. Not the police. But few people want to hear that because it neutralizes the popular narrative and takes away the excuse for bad behavior by blacks. The benefits to being a victim are far greater than they are being the cause of the problem.

    I actually wish cops nationwide would stop working for a week or two. Park the cars. Stay home.

    With all the comp time they've been racking up, it shouldn't take much convincing to organize this^.

    I'm saddened that you need a chart of numbers to understand that not every person's reality matches yours.

    This is an entirely different issue. Stop going out of your way to pretend that they are the same thing.

    Wishing police would stay home for a week is the same as telling all your friends on Myspace not to buy gas on Tuesday to fight gas prices.

    *You probably weren't on Myspace when it came out, but that kind of crap went around often back at that time.

    What exactly is different? The truth vs the lie? One is a make believe problem, the other is a real problem, both surrounding the same issue...blacks being killed. It seems plain as day to me.

    Well so what? Is that a crime in Irvingland to wish something? I'm not telling anyone else to feel that way or to wish that would happen. I said that's what I would like to see. I didn't suggest you or anyone else needs to want that. Now THAT'S two separate things...telling all your friends on some silly social media platform to do something vs a singular person voicing a desire that something happen.

    Not every persons reality? You sound like #metoo and every other whackadoodle hard leftist that believes that random ancedotal (and often contrived) examples trump hard facts. Should keep following that crowds thinking, these days they are also busy claiming math is racist.
