We, the NFL, condemn racism and the systematic oppression of Black People. We, the NFL, admit we were wrong for not listening to NFL players earlier and encourage all to speak out and peacefully protest. We, the NFL, believe Black Lives Matter. #InspireChange pic.twitter.com/ENWQP8A0sv

Well it's not really a controversial statement. If you're imagining legitimate school classes in which young white children are being quizzed on why black people are inferior, that may be the issue.

Can someone explain to me why Michael Brown was mentioned in that video? I thought it was proven that his death was a justified shooting.

How many in here actually know the numbers of deaths of black people vs white people at the hands of police? How many in here know how many arrests are made of each race? How many of each race are arrested for violent crimes? How many of each race were killed by police while unarmed? I suspect not too many of you do.

Depends. Are you using the deliberately misleading data from Heather Macdonald to make this point?

Active duty American soldiers tear gassing the constitutionally protected peaceful protesters, their fellow citizens was an abomination. Using active military soldiers for a partisan political photo op. :-)

I think public opinion turned at that moment. Polls are now showing 80%+ say the protests are justified. This is starting to feel like a turning point in America. Something might actually get done to move us in a positive direction towards equality for all US citizens.

I am not using any data. I am asking a question.

You can manipulate stats if you try hard enough.

I thought this was about the unjust treatment of black men at the hands of police? Are we now somewhere else?

Yes, I have seen many on the left try to do so.

Good post. I had read the 18.5x figure a ton lately and had never given a shit enough to check into it.

Don't be obtuse. Active military soldiers were used on citizens "protests unjust treatment of black men at the hands of police".


I know you may want to spin it or deflect it but it actually happened. A line was crossed in the separation of our military and politics. The soldiers serve the country, not a single politician.

So which is it? Equality or police brutality?

Why not cut out the middle men and just do your own research? The numbers are out there for everyone to see.
