where'd I say I'd do that. you pissing all over yourself again? yeppers.yeah, you stay in that 10 mile radius of chi town and you'll find that the stats are really high. and if you took the numbers by race, they are double to triple other races. but hey, you go piss alongYou know your statistics can be shot down by the crime in those areas.
There ya go! Except you forgot to shoot them down. I'm sure you just forgot to, right?
Hey! Are you purposefully forgetting to shoot down those stats after claiming you can?
You said : You know your statistics can be shot down by the crime in those areas.
So are you saying you cant now? Or do I have to ask you a certain number of times before you do?
in 2012 there were 13% Black men, here is the information from the FBI, you know the place that can't get any stats on states cops records?
Currently, the FBI struggles to gather the most basic data. Reporting is voluntary, and since 2011, less than 3 percent of the nation’s 18,000 state and local police agencies have reported fatal shootings by their officers to the FBI. As a result, FBI records over the past decade show only about 400 police shootings a year — an average of 1.1 deaths per day.
According to The Post’s analysis, the daily death toll so far for 2015 is close to 2.6. At that pace, police will have shot and killed nearly 1,000 people by the end of the year.
Fatal police shootings in 2015 approaching 400 nationwide
When relying on only the voluntary reports from local law enforcement, the FBI gets a number LESS THAN HALF what the Post was able to confirm.
Which is the point. The FBI doesn't have reliable numbers. Says who? The FBI.
Reporting shouldn't be voluntary. And it should be reliable and accurate. At the moment, is neither:
That number – which only includes self-reported information from about 750 law enforcement agencies – hovers around 400 “justifiable homicides” by police officers each year. The DOJ’s Bureau of Justice Statistics also tracks “arrest-related deaths.” But the department stopped releasing those numbers after 2009, because, like the FBI data, they were widely regarded as unreliable.
“What’s there is crappy data,” said David A. Klinger, a former police officer and criminal justice professor at the University of Missouri who studies police use of force.
How many police shootings a year? No one knows
We need way, way better than the 'crappy data' we get from Law Enforcement's voluntary reporting.
