>A new study confirms that black men and women are treated differently in the hands of law enforcement. They are more likely to be touched, handcuffed, pushed to the ground or pepper-sprayed by a police officer, even after accounting for how, where and when they encounter the police.
>But when it comes to the most lethal form of force — police shootings — the study finds no racial bias.
>“It is the most surprising result of my career,” said Roland G. Fryer Jr., the author of the study and a professor of economics at Harvard. The study examined more than 1,000 shootings in 10 major police departments, in Texas, Florida and California.
>The result contradicts the image of police shootings that many Americans hold after the killings (some captured on video) of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo.; Tamir Rice in Cleveland; Walter Scott in South Carolina; Alton Sterling in Baton Rouge, La.; and Philando Castile in Minnesota.
>In shootings in these 10 cities involving officers, officers were more likely to fire their weapons without having first been attacked when the suspects were white. Black and white civilians involved in police shootings were equally likely to have been carrying a weapon. Both results undercut the idea of racial bias in police use of lethal force.
>But police shootings are only part of the picture. What about situations in which an officer might be expected to fire, but doesn’t?
>To answer this, Mr. Fryer focused on one city, Houston. The Police Department there let the researchers look at reports not only for shootings but also for arrests when lethal force might have been justified. Mr. Fryer defined this group to include encounters with suspects the police subsequently charged with serious offenses like attempting to murder an officer, or evading or resisting arrest. He also considered suspects shocked with Tasers.
>Mr. Fryer found that in such situations, officers in Houston were about 20 percent less likely to shoot if the suspects were black. This estimate was not precise, and firmer conclusions would require more data. But in various models controlling for different factors and using different definitions of tense situations, Mr. Fryer found that blacks were either less likely to be shot or there was no difference between blacks and whites.
This is for NEW YORK CITY. This 17% increase is NEGLIGIBLE relative to the ammount of crimes they (the niggers) commit in this city - look at these numbers
http://newobserveronline.com/new-york-nonwhites-commit-92-of-violent-crime/
>Nonwhites commit 92 percent of all violent crime in New York City, and are responsible for 98 percent of all shootings, 91 percent of all firearm arrests, 88 percent of all drug arrests, 84 percent of all stolen property arrests, and 88 percent of all misdemeanor sexual offenses, the city’s police department has reported.
After DeBlasio ended stop and frisk these numbers have only been increasing by the way.
>In New York City, blacks stopped by the police were about 17 percent more likely to experience use of force, according to stop-and-frisk records kept between 2003 and 2013. (In the later year, a judge ruled that the tactic as employed then was unconstitutional.)
>That gap, adjusted for suspect behavior and other factors, was surprisingly consistent across various levels of force. Black suspects were 18 percent more likely to be pushed up against a wall, 16 percent more likely to be handcuffed without being arrested and 18 percent more likely to be pushed to the ground.
>Even when the police said that civilians were compliant, blacks experienced more force.

Only the stop and frisk part of the article is NYC. The OP and first post aren't.
>He and student researchers spent about 3,000 hours assembling detailed data from police reports in Houston; Austin, Tex.; Dallas; Los Angeles; Orlando, Fla.; Jacksonville, Fla.; and four other counties in Florida.
>In shootings in these 10 cities involving officers, officers were more likely to fire their weapons without having first been attacked when the suspects were white. Black and white civilians involved in police shootings were equally likely to have been carrying a weapon. Both results undercut the idea of racial bias in police use of lethal force.

Do you think the racial makeup and crime distribution by race in these metro cities are any different from NYC?

If blacks are doing all the crime what are the white criminals doing these days. are they out of a job?
>>80716010
Of course white commit crimes too, but 60% (white pop) commits as much crime as 15% (black pop) - is this not mystifying to you? And now, people like OP suggest that a SEVENTEEN PERCENT increase to have a thorough police stop is somehow the cause rather than the effect, of the high propensity to commit crime.

Come on /pol/, take this guy seriously.

That's it? I'm surprised considering how much more agressive they are.

>>everything else that brings it up to 1 is socioeconomic factors
Not entirely unlikely. Everybody knows Black Americans is one of the worst demographics in the world when it comes to crime.. Literally more criminal than Black Africans, or Black Europeans. If it were 100% genetic that wouldn't fly.. There are specific factors in the American context that result in vid related:

May I make the proposal that the affair is self-perpetuating? That is, that nig violence reinforces pig violence and that pig violence reinforces nig violence - or would that be too liberal of a suggestion to make for this board?

How much more of a percentage do blacks resist arrest?
