This story and study within is probably too much intellectual reading for a typical racist liberal. But...turns out in a shoot/dont shoot scenario. ..cops were far less racially biased than the general public.

The general public included many students and community leaders who...in the experiment. ..were far quicker to shoot black male targets than any other.

Reality hurts liberals.

The university group of psycholgists who ran the extensive study were "surprised" at the results. Im guessing they WANTED cops to shoot blacks quicker than the public citizens did...for the story it would've created.

But...the group goes so far to even say that of all the groups tested...ONLY the police group showed restraint in shooting the unarmed black targets.

Liberal cop haters...this is a large scale study...done on a beloved liberal college psychology campus. Explain how your racist cop narrative fell flat on its face after the SCIENTISTS tested it?

Also...the cops tested were mostly white. But included all races and gender. And the results..were the same across race. White cops werent more or less bias than others. And all cops were less racially bias than the general public.

This study is no surprise.

No surprise to some. To race hustlers and cop haters...its a terrible disappointment. Because as global warming arguments show...gotta trust the science right?

Coming from an ex-moonshiner clan (the relevant county went wet in 1966) I know the rules are:

cultivate the clerk's office not the cops or judges. The last two will rollover on you if you manage to bribe them and are more likely to get caught.

Submit to arrest, shut up and call your lawyer.

Had a cousin who ended up with a one year sentence for first degree murder with witnesses following those rules.

You said it perfectly.

Submit to arrest. Shut up. Call lawyer. Whether right or wrong...no one fights cops and wins.

We arent Mexico or Baghdad. 99.999999% of arrests will be legal and peaceful if no one fights. And God knows our court system is leniant. Gentle Giant...had he complied w arrest...would probably have gotten at worst probation for those cigarellos.

But nope. He had to "keep it real" in tha skreets yo!

Did you know that outlaw motorcycle gangs even in Europe court girls from the clerk of the court's office, where's the internal affairs for that?

I don't know. The study could be right. What does that have to do with the expectation of a fair investigation and deserved punishment for the few that unnecessarily kill citizens? I agree that most cops are pretty good at their jobs. That doesn't excuse the ones that aren't.
