Baton Rouge Police Killing a 37-year-old black man at point blank range

I hope we can end the war on drugs and with it the adversarial relationship between the police and the people.
 
This is all so heartbreaking.

Agreed with the sheriff's statements that the solution doesn't run through gun control. Gameface hit the nail about ending the war on drugs. This alone has led to so many tense situations involving firearms.
 
Not sure where these numbers are from or how accurate they are but if they are accurate then wow.

The problem with BLM is that its poorly named. Its name let's a lot of ignorant people twist it. It should just be called "Cops Please Stop Targeting Blacks".

They aren't even close to numbers I've seen. The last FBI report I can find is from 2014.

Whites kill whites most, blacks kill blacks most, other races kill other races most. Seems understandable, as much as killing anyone is understandable.

Or maybe it could be, "Leave the Targets for Other Blacks, Damn it!"
 
I was just looking for information about police killings by race, and it is disturbing to discover that there is not an official national database that tracks police shootings. The FBI gets any numbers it has from police departments that choose to self-report, but they are not compelled to do so.

Interesting article on the subject:
