The War on Cops is not about Racism
Heather MacDonald, author of The War on Cops, strips away the
usual emotionalism from the issue of police brutality and turns,
instead, to statistics. The numbers are shocking. Instead of supporting
the widespread belief that American police are infected with systemic
racism against blacks, the numbers prove otherwise. When the number of
incidents of excessive police violence are compared to the relative
sizes of racial populations, it appears that there truly is anti-black
bias. However, when they are compared to the relative sizes of crime
populations, the bias is negative. The reality is that there is more
crime in minority neighborhoods, more need for police intervention, and
more exposure to the possibility of excessive violence. MacDonald makes
it clear that the disintegration of support for police is a crushing
blow, not only to all Americans, but particularly to those living in
black communities where crime rates are soaring. 2020 July 30 – Source: AmericanExperimentMNVideo
