Keep making dumb statements and I'll keep fact checking you, burritoboy.
Your numbers are fictitious at best, flat racist at worse (which I suspect is the case with you, considering your avatar).

And before you start calling names, cite your sources:
31% of all people killed by police are black (which is wildly disproportionate considering 13% of the US population is black), and 39% of all non-attacking victims of fatal police violence are black. This is according to FBI data from 2012 (https://www.vox.com/cards/police-bru...-police-racism)

Also, it's 41% of police who are killed feloniously are by black suspects. But I notice you didn't bat an eye at the 52% killed by white suspects.

Kaepernick donated $1million just between Oct 2016 and June 2017

And the donations continue to "roll past $1million"

But keep talking, so everybody can see how big of a racist piece of garbage you truly are.

Since you are such an expert on these statistics, I was wondering if you could help me with a couple I was unable to find on Google (gee, I wonder why that would be). First, can you tell me the number of young black males murdered by other young black males annually in the USA as opposed to the numbers of young black males murdered by police annually in the USA, and second, the ratio of violent black on white crime as opposed to violent white on black crime annually in the USA?

According to the article I posted 93 percent of black victims were killed by blacks. But nobody wants to talk about that, it's not politically correct.

The real racist is one who injects racism into the conversation when it has nothing to do with the issue at hand. Nothing David has said remotely suggests he is a racist. You (burrito) should apologize to him, or take the gratuitous insults elsewhere.

Although I support Kaepernick's right to protest, I've never believed that all the white cops who've killed African Americans are racist. It's pointless to say that, and impossible to lump all these incidents together as if they were all the same. Every incident is individual and consists of different sets of circumstances. Is it possible that some white cops are racist? Of course it is. But to lump them all together is a poor and incorrect reading of the events.

The one thing I see linking them is poor decision making under very stressful circumstances, by the cops and the defendants alike. Both sides see the real possibility that their lives are in danger, and I don't believe that people can always do that right thing under those circumstances. Maybe cops need a little more training in that area, I don't know. And many of the defendants do really stupid things, such as reaching into their cars or pockets when they are told to freeze. It's an awful situation for anyone to be in, and very difficult to navigate.

But to say all white cops are racists is plainly false. You simply can't lump all of these incidents together without the facts.

Funny, instead of posting your own evidence, you try to conflate the issue and resort to childish name calling.

Classy. And you know, par for the course for toxic racists.

Enjoy your little circle jerk here. I'm done with this website.

What kind of burrito are you, burritoboy? A beef burrito? A chicken burrito? No, wait, a bean burrito. Bean burritos give me the craps...much like the content of your posts.

My numbers are accurate. Do the research. But I'll play along with you burritoboy. Let's use your numbers instead. So 31% of all people killed by police are black, right burritoboy? But 41% of all police killed are by blacks. So I ask, burritoboy, why aren't you as passionate about officers killed by blacks as you are about blacks killed by officers? You sound a little one sided to me. Go push your racial division agenda somewhere else, burritoboy.

It's more complicated than burrito's simple narrative using a cherry picked stat.
