You claim to care about humanity, what about the THOUSANDS of people stop and frisk has saved? What about the elder AA couple who has benefited greatly from that model? Murders were reduced in undeniable fashion in every city that implemented it.

Why the hell would a police station assign stop and frisk/ more law enforcement to those areas? Well duh, because thats where most of the criminal element is, and lots of black people actually want it, they're just afraid to say it because of blacks like you, who back criminals at every turn and will make them out to be some sort of evil uncle tom because they want to be safe.

Your comment about slavery and police shows just how delusional, paranoid, and unreasonable you are. It's not even worth a response. Without the American police, over half of the black population would be hunted down and slaughtered by their own. You've got some nerve.

Most of these clack communities have actually gotten worse since the 60's, and because of this ridiculous self loathing mindset, it's gonna get worse.

There is absolutely no way you can quantify how many people stop and frisk saved. This is not Minority Report. You can't predict crime. You just stated that most of the criminal element is in black neighborhoods. This is so absurd. You are implicitly stating that black folks are more likely to be criminal. This is racist, plain and simple.

What "blacks" do you know that want "stop and frisk"? Black people are harassed daily any many are found to not have committed any crime. It's like apartheid in these areas. Everyone wants to feel safe but not at the risk of being victimized themselves.

As far as slave patrols and police it is literally fact that this was one of there purposes and one of there main purposes at that. How can you be so dense? You can read the exceprts I highlighted to Bill but here is another link:

Hell there are MULTIPLE crime stats that even lump Asian Americans etc in together as "white". not even close to the same histories.

And if you honestly believe and refute that Jim Crow Law, early police and slavery didnt play major roles in creating a negative culture for african americans in this country you are living in a false reality.

And they will continue to live that reality because it's nice and cozy in there.

Ok. Let's say I lied Bill (actual I did additional research and mixed up my links) please read the below statement and tell me how that does not make a case for slave patrols being one of the main, if not the main function of early police.


The birth and development of the American police can be traced to a multitude of historical, legal and political-economic conditions. The institution of slavery and the control of minorities, however, were two of the more formidable historic features of American society shaping early policing. Slave patrols and Night Watches, which later became modern police departments, were both designed to control the behaviors of minorities. For example, New England settlers appointed Indian Constables to police Native Americans (National Constable Association, 1995), the St. Louis police were founded to protect residents from Native Americans in that frontier city, and many southern police departments began as slave patrols. In 1704, the colony of Carolina developed the nation's first slave patrol. Slave patrols helped to maintain the economic order and to assist the wealthy landowners in recovering and punishing slaves who essentially were considered property.

Policing was not the only social institution enmeshed in slavery. Slavery was fully institutionalized in the American economic and legal order with laws being enacted at both the state and national divisions of government. Virginia, for example, enacted more than 130 slave statutes between 1689 and 1865. Slavery and the abuse of people of color, however, was not merely a southern affair as many have been taught to believe. Connecticut, New York and other colonies enacted laws to criminalize and control slaves. Congress also passed fugitive Slave Laws, laws allowing the detention and return of escaped slaves, in 1793 and 1850. As Turner, Giacopassi and Vandiver (2006:186) remark, “the literature clearly establishes that a legally sanctioned law enforcement system existed in America before the Civil War for the express purpose of controlling the slave population and protecting the interests of slave owners. The similarities between the slave patrols and modern American policing are too salient to dismiss or ignore. Hence, the slave patrol should be considered a forerunner of modern American law enforcement.”

The legacy of slavery and racism did not end after the Civil War. In fact it can be argued that extreme violence against people of color became even worse with the rise of vigilante groups who resisted Reconstruction. Because vigilantes, by definition, have no external restraints, lynch mobs had a justified reputation for hanging minorities first and asking questions later. Because of its tradition of slavery, which rested on the racist rationalization that Blacks were sub-human, America had a long and shameful history of mistreating people of color, long after the end of the Civil War. Perhaps the most infamous American vigilante group, the Ku Klux Klan started in the 1860s, was notorious for assaulting and lynching Black men for transgressions that would not be considered crimes at all, had a White man committed them. Lynching occurred across the entire county not just in the South. Finally, in 1871 Congress passed the Ku Klux Klan Act, which prohibited state actors from violating the Civil Rights of all citizens in part because of law enforcements’ involvement with the infamous group. This legislation, however, did not stem the tide of racial or ethnic abuse that persisted well into the 1960s.

Though having white skin did not prevent discrimination in America, being White undoubtedly made it easier for ethnic minorities to assimilate into the mainstream of America. The additional burden of racism has made that transition much more difficult for those whose skin is black, brown, red, or yellow. In no small part because of the tradition of slavery, Blacks have long been targets of abuse. The use of patrols to capture runaway slaves was one of the precursors of formal police forces, especially in the South. This disastrous legacy persisted as an element of the police role even after the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. In some cases, police harassment simply meant people of African descent were more likely to be stopped and questioned by the police, while at the other extreme, they have suffered beatings, and even murder, at the hands of White police. Questions still arise today about the disproportionately high numbers of people of African descent killed, beaten, and arrested by police in major urban cities of America.



White folks dont know how to take history books that tell ALL the history.... not just the white washed ******** we get in public schools today saying Columbus found the Americas and other bs that simply isnt true. No one is interested in learning that the most wealthy ruler in the history of the world was.......BLACK......SAY WHA?!?!?! NAwww surely not....Yup Mali Emperor Mansa Musa.... You mean black people's origins isnt just "slavery"?

Your arguments are so extremely racist in tone and "facts" they are hard to refute. I will attempt to do that here.

1. See what I'm saying. This is utter dribble. Next.

2. One statistic states that black folk are more likely to be arrested for drug crimes while using drugs at the same rate as whites. You start shaking down housewives in the suburbs and I bet you'll find something there too.

3. If a new business comes to a black neighborhood but doesn't hire any of the people that live there then all they are doing is getting cheap land.

4. You skipped four in your genocidal anger

5. To top it off another nonsensical point.

6. I decided to add a point to take care of your last paragraph. Asians were not brought to America during its inception made to work the land and bolster this country as the richest in the world only to be treated as second class citizen until this day. Completely different histories.

[laughing] Jesus.

1. It's not utter dribble. There are tons of black activists that want safe spaces, to be away from whites and to be black only or have more blacks in whatever field they're working, whatever school they're going to or wherever they're living. Maybe you're closed off from this but this is very rampant.

2. Of course, your study shows that. That's always the ones you activists like to hang your hat on; just drugs. As if that's why blacks are going to prison at such a high rate.

3. So who's fault is it that they're not getting a job? Do you have any study for this? ***** about how awful these neighborhoods are and when someone makes it a desirable area, just ***** about gentrification. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

4. Genocidal anger? It was just such a stupid post to even discuss. Acting as if the idea of police in general originated to target blacks. It's a system that was implemented around the globe well before evil whitey chased slaves.

5. There was nothing about my post that was nonsense. You make an issue out of the cops not living in these communities (why the hell would they want to?) and then ignore the fact that blacks don't police their own neighborhoods and try to clean it up. What the hell does someone from the same place help? Does it give them more credibility? Will the criminals be happier that they got a hometown guy to arrest them? Is a hometown guy more likely to ignore crime and just chalk it up to "Hey, it's just the neighborhood. They don't know any better."

At what point are blacks responsible for themselves in these areas?

Womp womp. I'm sure you are so well versed on the "black" neighborhoods, the history of police, gentrification and stop and frisk. [roll] Continue on in the safety of your bubble sir.

You got any stats from a biased professor at EKU?

My question to you is why remain in the west? Africa is there. If you are so oppressed go there.

At what point are blacks responsible for themselves in these areas?

1. Are there not white separatists? Neo Nazi. People who want to go back to the "Aryan" race? Two extremes. I don't support either. Next.

2. Black people are going to jail for drug possessions/gun possession mostly.

3. I have plenty of studies that show bias in hiring and lack of funding for inner city school. These would be my two reasons as to why gentrifies don't hire the people of the neighborhood. If you don't have books for every student in the class how can they learn? If the school is filled with mold how can you learn?

4. I am not talking about police around the globe. Just the ones in America and their function. The main function was catching slaves.

5. Yes! Ding ding ding! It absolutely gives a cop more credibility if he lives in/is from the area. My grandfather was a cop would lived on his patrol. It was dangerous but he never discharged his weapon. Also, people told him when things weren't right. He didn't rule with some iron fist. He was tough but fair. Gave folks chances.

Also all these tough man policies. The "War On Drugs", three strikesand the like did nothing but make folks felons and perpetuate the cycle. It didn't deter crime it ensured that crime would in fact happen again. How are you going to get a job (a good job not Mcdonalds or something) if you're a felon?! Also, black people get longer sentences by average FOR THE SAME CRIMES as white folks.

It means relax, go outside, smoke a cig, put your jean shorts on, and go hang out with your other buddies at the above ground pool where you won't have to see another black person for a couple weeks. Telling people to go back to Africa isn't really the best way to have a civilized conversation. Also you calling me Omar Sharif the famous actor from Lawrence of Arabia?

So your answer is to decriminalize felon drug dealing scum, so that they arent "cycled" and can be destructive without repercussion.

They sell hard dope to kids and single mothers. Once again, you take the side of the thug. So typical.

One of the most wealthy african americans of his day, Paul Cuffee, actually wanted all blacks to return home. There's actually a small segment of these today, and it's called the "back to africa" movement.

It sort of goes in relation to how some people distort statistics to try and say women are paid less then men due to sexism in the work place when, in fact, there are already laws on the books that prevent this from happening. What people do not tell you is that women typically work less hours than men due to having to take care of children or other home items, while men most of the time do not have the same amount of responsibility away from work that women do, thus allowing them to work longer hours and...make more money.

Jill is a nurse who can only put in her 36 hrs a week due to having to take care of the house and children.

John takes all of the overtime he can get because he is a single bachelor saving up for a house.

They both make $25 per hour, but Jill only made $48,000 last year while John made $63,000.

Is that sexism and unfair pay for women? Hell no.

Point is....statistics most of the time are unless when only looked at in one facet.

I will first say that I am a registered democrat & we are way too early in this terribly sad event to have a clear understanding of what really happened. Anyone on either side of this argument that says they can look at the video and declare one way or the other has a clear agenda.

Generally speaking however, I will say that I think there is fault to be found on both sides here. I cannot for the life of me figure out why it is that the color of the cops or the "offender" has any bearing whatsoever on these incidents. Is there really any evidence that a cop is more or less willing to shoot someone bc of their race? Spare me the very few examples of just straight up murderous cops like in SC. There is more than enough antecdotal evidence that white people get shot occasionally without proper provocation in these situations as well.

Do people really buy into a racial conspiracy here? That would mean that these cops came onto the scene with the mindset they are going to shoot a black person. That is just crazy. Truthfully, I get sick of hearing about a whole conspiracy that no one can prove exists. I do believe I am impartial in this as I do not have an agenda, but if the argument is that police are too forceful in their actions and responses to provocation then that is a legit argument. Let's have that debate.

Far as I can tell when these events happen both sides of the "race-baiting" crowd immediately emerge to proclaim their agendas. That he was shot for being black or that he was shot bc he was a criminal & provoked a response. I don't think there is ever going to be a compromise or a rational discussion if we divide ourselves into these 2 camps every time this happens. And both sides are just as guilty as the other.

Like I said, why isn't the discussion whether this was an appropriate level of response. Why does it have to immediately devolve into the white/black argument. If I am being truly honest and I have to make a determination before all of the facts are in, I would guess that the cops in this instance were within their rights "if" the offender had a gun. From what I can see on that very bad video they do have him pinned down, but he is still resisting and they clearly tell him to stop or they will shoot. If he is laying on a gun or has a gun on him and is resisting on the ground before being handcuffed, that is a clear situation where the cops lives are in incredible danger. He could be reaching for the gun with the other hand or any number of scenarios where I would not want to have to find out what I would do in the split second situation. But, like I said that is assuming what has been stated so far--that the guy had a gun and was waving it at people. If no gun was present, then I do think that is a completely different scenario.

But, I do completely refuse to believe that their are large numbers of police out there roaming our streets just looking for black people to shoot. If you want to make the argument about "stop & frisk" or the arrest statistics, that is a different discussion altogether that I believe does have some merit and valuable insight. This whole idea of the police shooting innocent unarmed black people bc of their race actually really harms any legit discussion bc it forces people into camps that they should not have to be in. Rant Over.

Asians, Philipino etc didnt have to deal with being enslaved in this country as their history and having things like Jim Crow Law shape and effect their culture. Its not comparable at all.

No offense buddy but AA in THIS CENTURY do not have to deal with slavery either. Jim Crow laws were certainly a blight on the Southern US but have been gone since what the '60's? So 50-60 years of pretty much equal. I have no doubt that some AA or Asians, etc face some forms of mild discrimination thru their lives but so do most people in some form or another.

I really am tired of this millennial mindset that everything has to be blamed on someone else. Why did I fail the test? B/C it was rigged that's why. It was not culturally geared towards my race. BS. And before you go there, I have been largely a democrat my entire left. I have been a registered independent at times but no one can call me a right winger.

Well that is so awful for you. You actually had to pay for college. Newsflash--so did everyone else pretty much ever in this country. I am a gen-x-er and I paid my fair share of college tuition. To 3 different colleges nonetheless. Will be paying student loan debt til I die prolly. I didn't whine about it. I won't whine about it. I don't want a handout. It was a choice I made freely and I am proud that I did.

Talk about a weak *** narrative. Then your hard *** goes on to talk about how terrible you had it bc you had to pay more than me for college. How oppressed you were. Is there a safe zone you can go to in order to get over this micro aggression? I hope so bc if not you might have to put your big boy panties on like the rest of the people in the world, suck it up, and work your *** off to pay for whatever choices YOU chose to make in your life.

Quit blaming everyone else for your hardships. They are yours to bear. IDGAS what your politics are, people who immediately search for someone to blame for every event are sad. And I am the first to admit there are plenty to go around on BOTH SIDES.

Asians, Philipino etc didnt have to deal with being enslaved in this country as their history and having things like Jim Crow Law shape and effect their culture. Its not comparable at all.

Didn't pay attention in history class,huh, Sean? Might want to look into what the Japanese/Americans went through during WWII in the United States. How about the Native Americans? They have both suffered, and one has thrived. For all the bitching about BLM and all that ********, Native Americans have had it far worse for far longer. So don't act like the plite of the black american isn't comparable to another group of people.
