Rittenhouse Trial

[Mr. Tea]

Start googling around for stories of unarmed white men getting killed by police. I promise you you will find them. They just don't surface to international news. It happens regularly each year. In absolute numbers, as often as unarmed black men according to the statistics. Which no one denies, the contention is that is should happen less often than to white men because blacks are a smaller portion of the population. So your hypothesis here is just laughable.

I don't get it. Black people get killed by cops about 2.5 times as often as white people do:

The rate of fatal police shootings in the United States shows large differences based on ethnicity.

I mean that's a pretty fucking significant difference, don't you think?

gus go on ilm we're all too jaded here. wanna see how long it takes for you to get banned. i mean it's a white supremacist forum in denial (poptimism is even more white supremacist than rockism) so if you expose them the ban hammer will come quicker than you can recite ayat-al-qursi

full disclaimer I love ilm! Just not in the way they understand!

No. One Finney is a hand full, we don't need his uncles babies littering up the place.

Maybe not, but that's not a prerequisite for being a hero, is it?
