If travellers starting confronting guards with guns in Ireland do you think the dynamic might change? Would a guard be justified in shooting someone that confronts them with a gun?
Every society has rules. In the US the rules are if you engage in violent crime and confront the police with a gun, you are very likely to be shot. I accept that’s not the case in Ireland, but Ireland has a justice system that doesn’t take violent crime seriously.
I would suggest that if, even by the American police’s own statistics, at least 10% of people the police shot dead were unarmed and not attacking anyone, then that might be a serious violent crime and almost never taken seriously.
Statistically you are far more likely to be executed after being convicted of a violent crime in America if you’re black than if you’re white. What’s your explanation for that? Black people also receive on average longer sentences than white people for the same crimes. Is that indicative of a race problem in America?
Anyone who commits violent crime, is armed, and confronts police is likely to get shot in America. Twice as many white people are killed as blacks by police.
You think it’s ok that police kill far more black people proportionately, particularly in unarmed victim cases, because black people are more likely to be violent according to you.
It’s not according to me. The facts are that blacks commit over 50% of the murders in America, and 40% of all violent crime, even though they are 14% of the population. If you are engaged in violent crime, the chances of you being in a confrontation with the cops exponentially increase, and if you are armed the chances of you being shot greatly increase.
Unarmed people being unjustifiably shot by police is quite rare, which doesn’t excuse it, nor does it excuse the fact that blacks are disproportionately killed in these cases (mostly by black cops). Are black cops who shoot black people racist?
It’s simple statistics, which clearly you never studied.
Why would I stop there? I don’t have a flawed mind with flawed reasoning like you, so I can actually examine issues and come to different conclusions on different questions.
Something you are incapable of, as you truly are a simpleton with very limited intelligence.
