Dump said more white people than black are dying at the hands of law enforcement.

Asked why "African Americans are still dying at the hands of law enforcement," President Trump tells CBS, "So are white people. So are white people. What a terrible question to ask. So are white people. More white people, by the way. More white people."

1. Still doesn't get the "per capita" concept

Or, percent of population.

6. Basic math is beyond the stable genius.

2. So, no doubt, he went on to express his disgust that the police are killing people, right?

Then, explaining his ideas on ways to stop it from happening?

RIGHT?!?

[Sanity Claws]

3. So what is he doing about police brutality?

No one should die at the hands of the police, as we saw Floyd murdered. If he thinks people are dying at the hands of the police, then do something about it. This is not an excuse to ignore the protests.

7. They can kill as many as they want...

As long as the ratios are correct

4. oh well then i guess it's ok for police to kill people cavalierly then

what stupid logic. even if it were true in proportion, it's hardly reassuring.

hey, the police are killing black people unfairly!
actually, the police are killing all people unfairly, so it's all good!

even if he's right to dismiss any racial element to the question (which he isn't), what we're left with is still a big problem that he's doing nothing constructive about!

how about the police stop killing people unfairly?

5. And EVEN IF it were true...

WHAT THE FUCK MAKES IT OK??????????????????????????????

8. AND for a white person to be killed by cops he or she has to practically

drive a tank through police headquarters.

As we have all seen, all a POC has to do is sell a cigarette, jaywalk or raise their voice.

Or sleep in their own bed in their own apartment...

9. Well then, that begs the next question,..

Why is ANYONE dying at the hands of police?

I wanna see scans to know which parts of his brain have rotted away.

10. Name one.

11. He needs to take a math class

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6080222/

Victims were majority white (52%) but disproportionately black (32%) with a fatality rate 2.8 times higher among blacks than whites. Most victims were reported to be armed (83%); however, black victims were more likely to be unarmed (14.8%) than white (9.4%) or Hispanic (5.8%) victims. Fatality rates among military veterans/active duty service members were 1.4 times greater than among their civilian counterparts. Four case subtypes were examined based on themes that emerged in incident narratives: about 22% of cases were mental health related; 18% were suspected “suicide by cop” incidents, with white victims more likely than black or Hispanic victims to die in these circumstances; 14% involved intimate partner violence; and about 6% were unintentional deaths due to LE action. Another 53% of cases were unclassified and did not fall into a coded subtype. Regression analyses identified victim and incident characteristics associated with each case subtype and unclassified cases.
