That's kind of besides the point

 

When cops are doing the murder, they usually escape justice, whether we know who the murderer is or not 

Therein lies the difference. When "Tyrone" is the 'known' perpetrator, Maximum's statement is 100 percent correct 

The low conviction rate is due to communities not turning in the known killers, they care so much about blm when a white cop kills them but not when “Tyrone” does. 
The difference in your comment is Tyrone is randomly killing people with no defense...
 

Majority ( I know there’s been bad killings and Floyd’s was, almost like it was staged as no police or medical protocol followed) of cop killings are justified because Tyrone/Cajuns/Jose’s/ was trying to kill, resisting, etc...
 

When there’s millions of police encounters a day, bad shit is going to happen.... No matter wtf anyone does...

So the simple solution is limit the crime, limit the reaction and limit the contact with Police.  Majority of problem solved...

The bigger solution is instilling in kids values and respect for law and others and having 2 parents raise the kids to live a positive life...

Overall, this is way more of a socioeconomics issue than race issue....

This is a corrupt and poorly trained official issue. 

There's also that thing with perception

Cops are twice as likely to encounter  a white felon in this country than they are a black oneand while blacks do kill more than their share, more cops are killed by whites than they are by blacks.

Still blacks are twice as likely to be killed by a cop than a white person.

Atiatiana Jefferson was a student playing video games with her nephew. A friend of mine moms called 911 for assistance and was murdered. A young 7 year old girl was shot 9 times while she slept.

Blaming this on 'socioeconomics' is giving evil and ignorance  an out... whether you realize that or not.

Curious as to how often you think cops murder and escape justice.

 

 

My honest guess would be around 95 percent at least .

 Cops rarely arrest each other.... DA's charging them is just as rare....Majority white juries convicting them is even more rare.... and a judge giving a proper sentence almost never happens 

 

I know of at least 5 people murdered by cops that are free today and their stories never made the news.

 

There are cops who have murdered black men by shooting them in the back on camera as he complied with her orders.

 

Not only was she acquitted but she's giving courses on how to handle the stress from criticism  cops receive when they kill someone. She shot the man in the back on camera.

The academies I went through taught knee in the back, not the neck.

 

The Minneapolis PD manual actually contains use of a leg across the neck.

Yep. Many states , including Texas allow it along with choke holds. Just depends on the department on whether it (knee in neck) is an authorized restraint method.
