| So this is a very big deal. | |
| They actually have done studies at Harvard, University of Maryland, Michigan State, found zero evidence for anti-black or anti-Hispanic disparity in police use of force. | |
| If anything, there was more anti-white. | |
| And they didn't go into the study thinking that that's what they would conclude. | |
| Believe me, they were looking for racism and bias. | |
| So the whole thing's a lie. | |
| You think we know the whole truth? | |
| I mean, first of all, how do you know? | |
| How do we know? | |
| Seriously. | |
| How do we know that what was done to George Floyd was racist? | |
| How do we know that this officer wouldn't have done that in the exact same circumstance with the white that he was detaining? | |
| Right? | |
| The amount of assumptions. | |
| We also assume that he directly killed him. | |
| And... | |
| We have reason to believe that there's no question he contributed. | |
| If this didn't happen, Floyd wouldn't have died. | |
| So that's clear. | |
| But there were many other factors, including Floyd's condition, the drugs that were in him at the time. | |
| But nobody's interested in truth, because truth is the enemy of leftism. | |
| After surveying, this is from a black writer, Jason Reilly. | |
| He has a PragerU video, correct? | |
| Three. | |
| It's in the Wall Street Journal. | |
| After surveying more than two dozen federal and state probes of police departments across the country, the pattern became clear. | |
| When police were investigated following incidents of deadly force that had gone viral, police activity declined and violent crime spiked. | |
| It happened in Ferguson, Missouri, after Michael Brown was shot by an officer. | |
| It happened in Chicago after a cop gunned down Laquan McDonald. | |
| And it occurred in Baltimore after Freddie Gray died in police custody. | |
| In Chicago, there was a 90% drop in police civilian contacts immediately after the announcement of an investigation. | |
| And, quote, Baltimore literally went to zero after a probe was announced there. | |
| In cities where these contacts fell the most, homicides increased the most. | |
| Black Lives Matter is a fact. | |
| But it is not something that the left takes seriously. | |
| Black lives matter when a white kills a black. | |
| They don't finish the sentence. | |
| Mr. Fryer said that because of changes in policy, this is Fryer of Harvard, in police behavior following investigations in these and other cities, quote, my estimates show that we lost a thousand more lives, most of them black as well. | |
| Because of an increase in homicides. | |
| So let's say 800 blacks died as a result of the police withdrawing. | |
| Does that matter to Black Lives Matter? | |
| No, it doesn't. | |
| Mr. Fryer said, I never would have guessed that if police stopped putting in the effort, homicides would change like this. | |
| You hear some people say, oh, we want to police our own neighborhoods. | |
| Get out. | |
| No, you don't want that. | |
| I guess I always knew it was a foolish idea, but I didn't realize it was this deadly. | |
| Well, Minneapolis, I guess you'll find out. |
