New report.pic.twitter.com/xHtj7MfNII
A new report came out tracking whether police are more likely to stop black people on the road. SF police had the biggest reported racial disparities: they were 5x more likely to stop black people than their percentage of the population would explain.https://www.sfgate.com/news/crime/article/Report-California-cops-more-likely-to-stop-black-14945942.php …

Right. But we use this data to change laws. The data is vital.

How many more studies are needed before we can safely conclude what every black person already knows?

Interesting how the most liberal and diverse cities have the most white supremacists infiltrating their police departments. LA, NYC, Chicago, and San Francisco.

Don’t forget SF was a fairly conservative provincial city in the 60’s. Cops and politicians were largely catholic Irish and Italian’s w/ a few well known exceptions. Not a lot has changed as you can imagine there wasn’t a rush of hippies and activists waiting to be cops.

In my experience California cops as a rule enforce real estate red lining of minorities vigorously. They call this....get back in your community policing.

Born and raised there my whole life and can attest to this.
