Number of blacks in Iceland: less than 100
Number of blacks in Finland: 20,000
Number of blacks in U.S.A.: 38,000,000
Maybe blacks are the problem...... just saying because that article was so blatantly stupid in its statistical analysis, I might as well make any correlation I want.
We should strive to have less death by cops ...
... and stop being the world leader of citizens incarcerated per capita.
Of course.
That is due in large part to the "war on drugs."
I think you could take it a step further and ask what % of a population is indigenous to the country, but even that's hard to define. For instance, do you count Americans from white Europe as being "indigenous" to the country? How do you define that? Or are only Native Americans "indigenous?" And then, what? Are blacks and latinos born here indigenous?
At the risk of sounding racist (especially these days), history does show that blacks are more likely to kill each other - I mean, not in wars - but in general society. The amount of blacks in a society seems to increase violent crimes, which could help explain why our death-by-cops rate is so high. THAT BEING SAID, I refuse to paint the entire subject with that brush. We should strive to have less death by cops and stop being the world leader of citizens incarcerated per capita. I refuse to just blame all those stats on the number of black people in the US. That is a cowards way out.
