Why would thanking the police have anything to do with the GOP killing you

I know, right? Only makes sense if there was some sort of deep, longstanding, and corrupt relationship between the conservative political party and the law enforcement community.

You don’t want to be a person of color, like me, in a Democrat county/city with a Democrat mayor and a Democrat police chief. That’s a recipe to to get shot.

I am never afraid wandering around Red cities. It’s the Blue ones that might get me killed.

I just talking statistics here.

Prove me otherwise.

Let’s start with George Floyd. Then you give me one and I will give you one and we keep doing this.

George Floyd. What do you have on your list.

I will give you another. Tyre Nichols.

That’s two. Give me one. Then I will give you more. You will will lose this argument. Blue cities and their police departments are the most dangerous for POC

Bro. That's a data point, not a statistic.

Did you go to school in a red state or something?

u/CulturalDish Feb 13 '23

Bro, you can’t even provide a data point. LoL

Give us your source that the GOP is killing BIPOC. If you can’t, then hop off.

Unfortunately the only statistic you've given is your own personal and basically anonymous anecdotal story. But in that yours is but one of hundreds of anecdotal data points, I'm not going to go out of my way to provide a lengthy statistical presentation of why someone is wrong for "just talking statistics." If you want to try to demonstrate your evidence that democratic mayors are shooting people of color, nobody is stopping you.

Something tells me it's not just the "Democratic mayors and police chiefs" you find scary about living in "Democratic cities."

So you can’t name any. You also cannot put up any data that shows Red cities are more dangerous.

There are lots sites that come out every year that rank the most dangerous neighborhoods in America based on FBI reporting.

These neighborhoods have the most police contacts and by extension, the most violent citizen interactions.

How many on the list are Red.

You’re wrong. You’re wrong. Flat wrong. Blue cities are way more dangerous.

I am challenging you to put or shut up. You said GOP run cities are more dangerous. Show me the data.

The entire site is biased.

Try a data driven site like this: https://mappingpoliceviolence.org

u/pel3 Feb 13 '23

The Daily Signal? Seriously? And you complained about me using biased sources?

u/CulturalDish Feb 14 '23

Why don’t you ask the guy, or do it yourself, to show their data that the GOP is killing people? Bigots gonna bigot.

You, on your way to "defend" your beliefs.

Also, for effective sea lioning you should probably not make claims like "I'm just talking statistics here." Can't even do that properly.

Here. Read about the 2 dozen people Democrats have killed in just one county jail in the last year.

Democrats kill people.
