    Since 2015, fifty black women have been killed by police.

    Not a single officer was convicted.

    So I wanted to know more...

    100 police officers were involved.

    71 didn't face repercussion (fired, charged or convicted). 

    9 were fired.

    5 were charged.

    1 resigned.

    14 unknown.

    California had the most with 9 followed by Florida, Georgia, Texas & Virginia all with 4.

    Researchers who compiled this data maintain that black women are the most invisible group in America.

    When I can’t hear a motherfuccker

    you garglin’ balls ?

    What a horrible soft marginal talk targeted at who knows what

    you spoke so fluff with no volume

    and it sounds like 3 tongues are in your mouth all fighting each other

    unsightly , some cuss words , for the whisperers and wanderers , spittle clinging to their lips when they elicit a proverb 

    impossible to be heard , damn near inaudible 

    In your pants is there balls with fur or is it just soft and have paws and purr ?

    pusssy quiet except for the queefs , mesmerizing is it a guy or does it have breasts ? Does it bleed ?

    Once every month or if it’s irregular every several weeks ?

    tucked under your buttcheeks a venerable stench where fishes sleep

    not just Luca Brazzi

    your pubic isn’t conducive to producin’ the cocck’s seed

    Lady Chatterley ,

    Chantilly lace and pretty face ,

    put some base in your crooked ways and make a statement that didn’t fade

    please speak clearly at the pulpit

    and if you need to squeeze it and pull it for it to be seen then look it

    its legitimate

    it isn’t a dicck it’s a clitoris and wishin it to get bigger didn’t bring an inch or thick

    whimsical malevolence twisted sinister delivered in foul etiquette 

    When you make a sound let the crowd detect it  bitcch

    I’m tired of guessing , shitt !

     

    speak up !

    @Midnight1

    And the Police now have the nerve to wonder why people want to De-fund.

    They swear an oath to protect and defend the US Constitution when they earn that Badge.

    Then they pizz all over it by bullying the same Public Citizens they are supposed to Serve and Protect.

    Yes folks, we no longer have Public Servants.  We have a bunch of Tyrants running wild.

    I'm NOT Anti-Police.  I am Anti-Bad Police.

    If they want to draw a Blue Line.  If they won't stop protecting the Bad Apples among themselves, then there MUST be consequences for their lack of action.

    Time for the Civilians to take back their Police Force.  Start at the top and carve them up.  In my town the Chief for 19 years has been terminated.  Too big for his britches.  Got to go.

    How many were armed? How many were resisting arrest? I'm sure BreannaTaylor would be added into the 50 her drug dealing boyfriend decided to shoot at cops and use her as a human shield. How many other of the 50 had scenarios like that? Without context of each case we have no idea what the circumstances were. The fact that no officers were charged leads me to believe once the true facts came out in court the women were most likely armed resisting arrest or posing a threat to the officers. I'm all for weeding out bad cops but to generalize all cops as bad and defund them is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Look at the skyrocketing crime rate in Minneapolis. The people most affected by lack of police are minorities. If a neurosurgeon performs a poor surgery do we call on all neurosurgeons to resign? No we get rid of the one bad surgeon because the lives they save far outweighs the one poor surgeon. Same with cops they save far more lives every single day across the country the problem is the msm never shows the good they do on TV.

    @Bigdoubleplay

     There wasn't any additional info & I provided all the data provided. However, I found the data alarming & peculiar that not one officer was convicted in any of the 50 cases.

    I believe you, Goose & I are all pro-police but as Goose pointed out, the bad cops need to go. I don't know how many of these 50 shootings were all good but I find it very hard to believe all 50 were.

    Re: your comments on the media, I find that a copout no pun intended. I see police rescuing people from burning cars or kids falling through lakes ever day in the news along with questionable use of force incidents. A certain amount of common sense needs to be applied when reading or listening to the news. We can't take everything as gospel but unfortunately some people do.

    I created this thread because I was shocked when I stumbled across the research that was mentioned elsewhere. Yeah, we all heard of Breanna Taylor because the media made us aware of the incident. But what about the other 49 women????

    That was my point.

     There wasn't any additional info & I provided all the data provided. However, I found the data alarming & peculiar that not one officer was convicted in any of the 50 cases.

    I believe you, Goose & I are all pro-police but as Goose pointed out, the bad cops need to go. I don't know how many of these 50 shootings were all good but I find it very hard to believe all 50 were.

    The drug dealer was an ex-boyfriend. The guy who shot at the cops was just a regular dude with a registered gun who thought someone was breaking into his girlfriends house because cops like to play dress-up like they're special ops soldiers and serve warrants in the middle of the night even though their intel led them to believe that she would be alone. And they didn't find any drugs, paraphernalia, or drug money. Oh, and they had apprehended the main suspect earlier in the day. They really went in there kicking down doors for one chubby chick. They want to be special ops soldiers an the irony is that their ineptitude just demonstrates how far from special ops soldiers they really are.

    And for the record, i'm not one of those, "Oh, say her name..." types but if you're going to talk shit, you should at least get said shit straight.

    Here’s the 50 people that were killed. You can click on the name and get the bias rundown of what happened. I googled a few names and the ones I googled it seems like they deserved to be killed.

    Since 2015 247 women have been shot and killed by police. 48 were black. 

    240 of the 247 were armed. 

    Black women make up 13% of the female population and 20% of the women shot and killed. Not that big of a discrepancy when you look at other relevant statistics.

    White women are fatally shot at a rate of 1.5 per million. Black women are 2.3. And Hispanic women are 1.0 per million. 

    The articles I can find are obviously bias so they won’t say the number of white women that were shot and killed because that number is higher than the number of black women shot and killed. You could use the numbers above along with racial data and do the math but it’s hurting my brain. 

    I have come to the conclusion that this is a non issue.

    I don’t even like most cops. But I don’t like these fake narratives even more. 

    These fake narratives are used to control black people. 

    We now have an abundance of seemingly high iq black people running around chasing their tails as activists when their time could be spent solving actual problems or creating opportunities for others. 

    The high iq’s then spread the fake narrative. The low iq’s gobble it up and are outraged and sour on society about a problem that isn’t even a problem.

    15 of the 247 were probably unjustified. Who gives a fuck. 15 people probably died from eating too many carrots in the same time span.

    Being an activist for this bullshit is the same as being an advocate for protection against eating too many carrots.

    This is how stupid people today are.

    I can attest to the fact that this is a none issue amongst black women. There are black women, most black women, who will tell you they worry about their sons, their brothers, their husbands, etc. How valid or invalid that is isn't really for this thread but women are rarely shot by police and this shit is a non-story. Black women are an invisible population. For example, they go missing at a disproportionate rate yet these cases don't garner much media attention. People drop this shit to seem woke. "Did you know..." "It's a travesty!" Some even have the audacity to call people out for not responding. As if that means you don't care. There are much bigger issues facing black women than the handful killed by police. Issues that face all women, regardless of race. This shit is a nothing burger.

     Every time a thug robs/kills another & we find out he was out on bail for one or more other violent crimes, or had been deported multiple times before.

    This. We should be pushing STEM based curriculums instead of CRT based curriculums. I blame myself. I was so active in my teens and 20s. Tutoring. Counseling. Each one teach one. I hit my 30s and got lost in my own shit. Partying. Self medicating. I'm now in a position, financially, to do so much good and I just lack the energy for it. It's not the values on which I was raised. My family was extremely active in the community. I have not done well enough to honor that legacy.

    You want something to be outraged over? Put up numbers to show how women of color are disproportionately absent from STEM based careers. You want to get a single Indian tear out of me, that's some real shit right there. Just imagine if all the money donated to BLM was instead donated to STEM programs for disadvantaged youth. If instead of focusing on those who's lives are over, however tragic the circumstances of the deaths, instead we focus on the people still breathing. Like I said, I blame myself. I've wanted to start a program for the last 5 years and have just been too self absorbed. And while I would want to start in my home area, i'm only even there sporadically. This shit is insane though. Too many people of color running around with liberal arts degrees pushing their bullshit on the youth, telling them the odds are against them even though they themselves had access to education. What they should be saying is, "Don't get a degree in the bullshit I studied. Go to fucking med school." This is how liberal arts degrees make money though. They write papers and push bullshit. Then they either go into academia, restarting the cycle, or if lucky, they get a book deal.

    y'all understand that the population of cops aren't a race...or an ethnicity...or a nationality?  they aren't cops 'from birth'.  being a cop is a job.  why is there no scrutiny on the employer?  no scrutiny on the laws, policies and procedures that they are instructed to follow/uphold?  ya know, from their employer!! (i'm mainly talking about this thread ftr).

    I'm not a cop.  I largely am not happy with my experience with cops.  but when was the last time you (or someone you know) had a cop help open a locked car?  rescue a kitten in a tree?  everything I've heard is that it's a tough job that pays relatively little.  and now after election time antifa/blm(the organization not the message) vandalism and 'defund the police' talk ya think this is gonna get better with fingers pointed at the people on the frontline?

    plenty of d!ckhead cops that need to be weeded out but, imo, y'all are missing the mark
