They categorically dismiss research that shows black people are habitually treated more severely than whites when suspected of the same crime. They swear that policing policies like “stop and frisk” and “broken windows” aren’t racially motivated, even though studies have repeatedly shown that they disproportionately target minorities.

In typical form and fashion, this nigger plays the victim card, completely ignores the fact that africans, being 12% of the population commit 56% of all murders in the US. Let's not talk about assaults, robberies, burglary, theft where the numbers all CLEARLY show they commit WAY MORE CRIME and AS A RESULT, ARE TARGETED BY LAW ENFORCEMENT.

They always have the first bit right, that law enforcement targets them more. But they always always always forget about the reason why Police target them more and it is as you said, because they do commit more violent crime. I am happy that Black People are nowhere near as common anywhere in Russia, even Moscow doesn't have too many :D. Where do you live and what do you think about the area you live in?
