      When someone (likely a conservative or white supremacist) tells you that it is wrong to mention police brutality since Black people kill more Black people than police do, know that they don’t actually care about Black lives one way or the other. A thread...

      Last year obesity took more than 4 million lives worldwide. That’s more than terrorism and car crashes and all firearm related deaths combined. Does that mean it’s wrong to speak about anything other than obesity. Of course not.https://www.vox.com/science-and-health/2017/6/19/15819808/obesity-global-epidemic …

      Almost all white people are killed by white people. All most all Latinos are killed by Latinos. And almost all Black people are killed by Black people. But only one group, Black people, is asked daily to limit their advocacy to Black on Black crime.

      The moment I hear someone say, “Why don’t Black people talk more or fight more against Black on Black crime?” I immediately know that you literally have no idea what you are talking about. None at all. Cities are full of marches and advocacy groups fighting this every single day

      The United States does not require marches for Black people to be held responsible for violence, or for any crime. Nobody is held more responsible, no group is more imprisoned, than Black people. The system exists to punish Black people. Police on the other hand....

          Detainment Policy- stemming from unremedied Jim Crow from 1872 were designed for subjugation. Inequitable legal system is socioeconomic detainment!

          If you're just talking about the US along, white men have raped, pillaged, killed and stole from Native Americans and African Americans. But no one wants to talk about that.

          Not to mention the fact that black on black crime and being a victim of brutality at the hands of the very ones who have sworn to protect the citizens in the communities that they serve, and have even received training in order to do so, are two very different things.

          If you read deeper into that statistical analysis you will find that a white man has a 4% chance of being killed by a strange black person. Where as a black person has a 14 times greater chance of being killed by strange white person.

          When i hear that crap, I come back with, "Police are paid by us to uphold the law. They are sworn to protect everyone equally. You are comparing apples to oranges."
