FULL STORY:

A police officer from Tulsa, Oklahoma this week tried to downplay racism by police by saying that police shooter far fewer black people “than we ought to” because black people are purportedly involved in so many crimes.

Public Radio Tulsa reports that Tulsa Police Department Maj. Travis Yates this week told talk radio host Pat Campbell that it was unfair to note that black people are more likely to get shot by cops than white people because black people are involved in more crimes.

“If a certain group is committing more crimes, more violent crimes, and law enforcement’s having to come into more contact with them, that number is going to be higher,” Yates said. “Who in the world in their right mind would think that our shootings should be right along the U.S. Census lines? That’s insanity.”

The officer then suggested that, if anything, people should be impressed that police aren’t shooting more black people.

“All of the research says we’re shooting African-Americans about 24 percent less than we probably ought to be, based on the crimes being committed,” he said.

1. Sure would like to see "all the research".

I bet someone told him. That’s Republican research.

2. They can't hide this like they hid the Tulsa Race Massacre in 1921.

Not even in the history books in Oklahoma. Now these racists can't hide with cameras everywhere.

6. Did you watch the HBO series Watchmen?

It was set in Tulsa and did a great job amplifying the Tulsa race massacre.

It was very compelling.

8. Yes I saw it. What is terrible is they want to hide it so it "just goes away".

In the 20’s that black Wall Street incident that burned that town to the ground.
