Remember when a black shot a white kid just riding his bike? Of course not because the major news sources these clowns watch will not mention it unless it's a black dying.

Because he's going to get charged and easily convicted. It's a tragedy, but why does it need national attention?


Amber Guyger was just as clearcut (easy charge and conviction). Why did her case receive national attention?

So, If I kill a bunch of bleeps, no one will complain because I'm not a cop?

Well I contributed data to 5 papers last year, so I probably do know a fair bit about science. Probably more than anybody else on the forum to be honest, since it's my day job.

Tell me again how this is a double standard? As far as I can tell he's already been arrested and charged. Took days for Chauvin to be arrested.


false, you're a classic portrayal of a data biased person. You see what is exaggerated on social media as absolute data. Even if it is found to be true that you have any job related to the sciences I would take your research with a grain of salt. I will say it again, you're not as smart as you think you're.

You're on here everyday spewing garbage either way, so you're probably a fake either way.

Media exaggerates "systemic racism" and all of a sudden all these experts crawl out of nowhere thinking they're experts in the subject matter and that it is the leading cause and the only cause of blacks being gunned down. You have google at your disposal, try searching any stats before 2021.

You're a waste of time, it's not even entertaining arguing with you since your own ego refrains you from seeing past your bias. Was easy, pce.

People would care but the issue is mainly with cops. If a black guy killed a bunch of Mormons, people would absolutely care and call it a hate crime.

No one gives a shit if a black dude kills a white kid and no one cares if a white dude kills a black kid. That happens every day in America because we have a high murder rate.

Is police involvement the litmus test for whether a killing gets national attention? was George Zimmerman a cop?

Because it was a police officer lol. She wasn't arrested for several days, was only charged with manslaughter initially. Then it got upgraded to murder.

We didn't follow the trial like we have been with Chauvin. It fell off the radar comparatively quickly after the charges were upgraded if I'm remembering correctly.

Zimmerman didn't even get arrested that night, and they drug tested Trayvon before they tested Zimmerman.

There was plenty of police involvement and shit with Zimmerman even if they weren't the ones doing the killing.

Not necessarily but it certainly helps. People care more when people in a position of authority abuse their power. That's why people care more when a teacher/priest rapes a child.

A kid being killed by a random person simply isn't interesting when it happens. Frankly, I don't even think fragile white people care about the victim. They just want to use stories like this to prove that poor whitey is discriminated against. It's part of white culture to be upset when the world doesn't revolve around them.

Do you think that race should factor into the amount of media attention any incident of police violence is given?
