81% of Black Americans Want the Same or More Police

[Fat Cat]

Obviously this is a pro-2nd Amendment site, but the poll they site was conducted by Gallup. As always, the loudest, dumbest voices in the room are not representative of the moderate majority, which wants no part of left wing vanguardism. So please, never imagine that "defund the police" is the voice of the black community. They want police, they want positive interactions and fair treatment from police, and that's what they should get.

Despite cities defunding and cutting back police services nationwide, 81% of black people (and 83% of Hispanics) want either the same or more police presence in their neighborhoods.

Blacks are racist af. Which I enjoy. High IQ blacks have the best racism. Just the best. Brutally funny.

But their women run the show.

They'll vote +95% for the DEM candidate because of gov jobs and HR depts give black women sinecures.

Progressive white folks always want to tell black folks what to think. "Defund the police" is silly AF and tailor made for Trump to push back on.

[Bennyonesix1]

The crime problem in this country is just black males from 14-25 being black males from 14-25.

Everyone who has any contact with black culture or the criminal justice system knows this.

But, Frank Rizzo was racist so what are we gonna do?

Better to suffer than be racist.

"Folks"?

Stop the cringey shitlib crypto class signalling stuff dude.

You're some upper-middle white striver piece of shit lib at least be proud of it.

No one thinks you don't hate kulak americans.

You get triggered by the weirdest stuff.

Should black folks who say nigger be cancelled?

Yes, progressive whites say a lot of fantastically stupid things, but that doesn't seem to stop you from being a progressive white person. Explain.

Yeah. Why would you pretending to be on my team irritate me?

"Hey fellow white salt of the earth types who I definitely don't think are the core problem with the US how y'all doing can we talk about your murderous racism for a second?"

Fuck you

Yes, progressive whites say a lot of fantastically stupid things, but that doesn't seem to stop you from being a progressive white person. Explain.

Here is an example:
2016, black voters come out in big numbers in key states and help democrats in the midterms. White progressives: "People need to *listen* to black voters."
2018, black voters quickly decide, "We like Joe Biden." White progressives: *fingers in ears* "lalalalalalala you aren't doing what we want right now we know what is best for you"

The far left and right are overwhelmingly filled with white folks- dammit I mean people - who think they know what's best for black [strikethrough]folks[/strikethrough] -aw shit strikethrough doesn't work sorry B- people.

White people, and I mean this without any humor or irony, don't care about black people. It's not that they hate them, it's that they aren't interested in them. The false displays of performance compassion are purely intended to impress other whites. That's why your Bernie Bros and Warrenites DNGAF about or outright rejected the black community's embrace of Biden. The inverse is also true, Blacks don't like whites, they don't like Biden. They liked Obama and it's his shine on Biden's apple, despite the fact that the man literally cannot stop saying horrible things about black people.

Ghettoside is an excellent book by Jill Levoy and tracks a murder investigation in South Central LA.

One of the lines in the book that resonated with me, and I do not remember if it is the author or someone else, was that in the inner city, the residents (predominantly black) want MORE of a police presence. The departments in the inner city are so underfunded that some of the basic things you take for granted, investigating a murder, just don't happen.

And the residents want that.

But instead they get a lot of aggressive policing tactics, etc. They want more but they do not get the more they want.

Anyways, it is great book and I highly recommend it.

It's been hovering on my "want to read list" for quite a while. Thanks for the rec-will get to it right away.

I checked out of this place for a few years, and have returned to find a great book club and a very mellow and sage Fat Cat. What a trip.

Blacks want more police presence because they don't want to snitch. They literally think the police "shoulda seen dat" when Lil Jimmy gets smoked on the corner for selling product in Corn Pop's territory. Basically, they want all of the benefits of active police service without any of the pesky civic duties associated with modernity. Like telling the investigating officer, "yeah, I seen Corn Pop shoot his little ass". They want Tom Cruise from the Minority Report to swoop in and arrest Corn Pop without any fuss because the lady in the float tank told him to. The real punchline is the fact that this is all funded from the pockets of people who live in neighborhoods that could literally exist for years without any active police presence. Shaniqua's snitch-free omniscience patrol is wholly funded and paid for by people whose idea of a police emergency is the Tanner kids are throwing a goddamn beer pong party while their parents are skiing in Vail.

^^^One of the reason so many of the "defund the police" types are skinny little crackers is because they grew up in affluent Portland neighborhoods where cops are largely superfluous. If you subtract inner city jogging crime from the statistics, USA has violent crime levels on par with Lichtenstein and Luxembourg.

Blacks are 13.4% of US Population

That means they have 13.4% of voting power.

This is why we have a REPUBLIC with RULE OF LAW, not a DEMOCRACY with RULE OF MOB. So the interests of the 13.4% cannot be overwhelmed by the rest of the country.

Dammit. Just listened to the first chapter and already looking at BLM in a broader different historical context. Even if the rest of the book is trash it will still be worth it for that. Great recommendation.

Awesome. It's a great read the whole way through. A very balanced, fair book.
