Black professor gets hate mail after revealing cops do NOT shoot at Blacks more than Whites

[DudleySmith]

Is your assertion about the absolute number or the percentage as regards all officer related shootings?

Racial disparity in police shootings unchanged over 5 years

Over the past five years there has been no reduction in the racial disparity in fatal police shooting victims despite increased use of body cameras.

news.yale.edu

In an analysis of 4,653 fatal shootings for which information about both race and age were available, the researchers found a small but statistically significant decline in white deaths (about 1%) but no significant change in deaths for BIPOC. There were 5,367 fatal police shootings during that five-year period, according to the Post’s database. In the case of armed victims, Native Americans were killed by police at a rate three times that of white people (77 total killed). Black people were killed at 2.6 times the rate of white people (1,265 total killed); and Hispanics were killed at nearly 1.3 times the rate of white people (889 total killed). Among unarmed victims, Black people were killed at three times the rate (218 total killed), and Hispanics at 1.45 times the rate of white people (146 total killed).
“Those killed by police on average are young people — the average age for all victims is 34,” Boatright said. “For Black people, the average age is 30.” For Hispanics killed, the average age is 33; for Native Americans, 31; and for white people, 38.

lol please ignore the national crime stats re 'native Americans', blacks, latinos, re murders and violent crimes. It pretty much explains those numbers. You have no interest in real facts, though, so you and your peers just make yourselves irrelevant.

The topic here is police abuse..and whether or not it's directed at minorities more than it is at Whites.
You have yet to address this topic..instead, as is your usual MO..you're just trolling about bleating about your usual racist hobby horse.

Which race, color or culture commits the most crime is irrelevant..to this topic.

No, it's about real facts and crime stats, which you need to ignore. That's because you're full of shit and hate that people know better.

From your link:

The study found that police were more than twice as likely to manhandle, beat or use some other kind of nonfatal force against blacks and Hispanics than against people of other races. However, the data also determined that officers were 23.8 percent less likely to shoot at blacks and 8.5 percent less likely to shoot at Hispanics than they were to shoot at whites.

So the obvious conclusion is that there is clearly racial bias...however it is not exhibited in the shooting stats...just all the other forms of physical abuse. I do have some curiosity as to why this professor stepped so far out of his area of expertise, he's an economics guy, after all. I wonder if he considered the correlation between income and police abuse.
Anyway, his study in no way shows that there is no racial bias in policing in the Houston area, quite the opposite.

Certainly, one cannot really draw any wide-ranging conclusions based on one small study by someone who does not have a proven competence in this field~

FYI..this same professor was suspended for two years from Harvard for sexual abuse~

Nice unobjective conclusion .. How do you know it's racial bias? Do the statistics indicate why police "manhandled, beat or used some kind of nonfatal force?" What were they reacting to and what color were the police officers?

You don't think that a 100%+ difference between physical interactions black vs white compelling all on its own? It certainly would appear racial bias..given the huge disparity.
The why is irrelevant, IMO. As is the color of the officers.

Not 10% diff. or 20%. 100%+---double the likelihood of being manhandled, beat or tased if you were Black vs a much lesser chance if you were White.

You can circle around it all you want, but, in this case, the obvious...is correct~

Interestingly enough. . . Freakonomics even covered him. What do you know?

". . . Fryer alleged that he was "unfairly scrutinized ... for his skin color."[29] Harvard confirmed that its Office for Dispute Resolution (ODR) received complaints against Fryer in January, March, and April 2018.[30] A total of 38 complaints were received from a[clarification needed] former assistant who worked in EdLabs. 32 complaints were dismissed by investigators for reasons such as fabrications by the assistant. The 6 remaining complaints were determined as possibly valid. Upon completing their investigation, the recommendation of ODR was Fryer should be required to take "workplace sensitivity training".[31] This recommendation for training was passed to a panel of Harvard tenured faculty including Claudine Gay and Lawrence D. Bobo.[citation needed]. . . "

Ah, more posts deleted without notice or reason. lol pathetic losers.

So if more whites are getting shot why aren't we seeing the threads about high white crime or the lectures telling whites to stop resisting arrests? Or is this thread just so some whites can race bait when a black person talks about getting shot by police at 3 times the rate of our population? Because it's funny how per capita doesn't ever seem to come into play when whites on the right want to dismiss racism.

Because white crime rates are far lower than your feral 'bruthas', that's why. I realize you're stupid and just don't have any common sense, but it your 'brutha's' murdering each other at high rates while fake con artists like yourself just moan and cry about Whitey, as if it's white peoples' fault your 'bruthas' are violent feral pieces of shit. That's lot easier than you lifting a finger to change your pwn 'culture' and risking anything to change its dead end direction. You don't actually care about your 'people', just lining your own pockets and laughing at the idiots who fall for your BS. Your giant wall size poster of Al Sharpton tells the whole story.

Except they aren't lower. I realize you're stupid but this is out of hand. When you talk about feral pieces of shit white boy, look in the mirror and at your history.

What's the world coming to?
Going to hell in a hand basket in my opinion.
Make sure the voice of normalcy is heard.

so you wont be voting for democrats anymore ?

CRT and DEI has absolutely saturated higher Ed. Maybe he said this because he’s a man of integrity?

I don't recommend it for MAGAs or neocons though. You have to be a free thinker, or an independent and curious person to appreciate it. . .

If Trump is still running in the fall, I will vote Biden, so voting will still count 4 years from now, as Republican leadership doesn't give rats as about the country, only the party and the Orange dude.

Roland Fryer is wrong: There is racial bias in shootings by police

2020 update: The specific flaws of Roland Fryer's paper have now been characterized in two studies (by other scholars, not myself). Knox, Lowe, and Mummolo (2019) reanalyze Fryer's data to find it understates racial biases. Ross, Winterhalder, and McElreath (2018) do something similar through a...

I'm inclined to believe that his study wasn't flawed, and it is Harvard that is doing data manipulation to protect their political agenda, especially given that bullshit they did with their last disgraced president.

Hell, he didn't even believe his results, he double checked them. His bias started out against the police. He went out in the field and did work, did the folks doing data manipulation to "debunk," his work? I doubt it.

They are motivated by their cognitive bias, trying to protect their critical theory turf.

He addresses this around the twenty minute mark.

Economist Roland Fryer on Adversity, Race, and Refusing to Conform​

"University of Austin co-founder Bari Weiss sits down with Harvard economist Dr. Roland Fryer to discuss what it means to pursue the truth.

Roland Fryer is one of the most celebrated economists in the world. He is the author of more than 50 papers—on topics ranging from “the economic consequences of distinctively black names” to “racial differences in police shootings.” At 30, he became the youngest black tenured professor in Harvard's history. At 34, he won a MacArthur Genius Fellowship, followed by a John Bates Clark Medal, which is given to an economist in America under 40 who is judged to have made the most significant contribution to economic thought and knowledge.

But before coming to Harvard, Fryer worked at McDonalds—drive-through, not corporate.

Fryer’s life story of rapid ascent to academic celebrity status despite abandonment by his parents at a young age, and growing up in what he calls a “drug family” is incredibly inspiring in its own right. Because based on every statistic and stereotype about race and poverty in America, he should not have become the things he became. And yet he did.

He also continues to beat the odds in a world in which much of academia has become conformist. Time and time again, Fryer refuses to conform. He has one north star, and that is the pursuit of truth, come what may. The pursuit of truth no matter how unpopular the conclusion or inconvenience to his own political biases. He’s also rare in that he isn’t afraid to admit when he’s wrong, or to admit his mistakes and learn from them.

This conversation was inspiring, courageous, and long overdue. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did."

That’s convenient, isn’t it? LOL

Is this guy in a position of authority? For every one to conspire against him?

It’s like the 9/11 or the flat earth conspiracy. Everyone is wrong only this guy is telling the truth. Sure.

Flawed methodology though...buggers it all up...but the media pounced on it..so he's someone, I guess?

But bad science is bad science.
