Although this also is a true statement, it is often not quoted in concert with the first statistic. To establish his theory, Mr. Hinds used the aforementioned statistic that more blacks than whites are shot by the police. This type of broad-brush accusation is impossible to respond to and serves to create and nurture suspicions by minorities that police everywhere are always using deadly force for racist reasons. Virtually all of the universally respected research does not support this theory. This is not to say that racism is not an issue, or that minorities are always treated fairly by all police officers.
Fascism does exist.
There is evidence of this, and it must be erased from our profession. Hire the best possible persons. Undisciplined, undereducated people don't make trustworthy employees in any job category, let alone police officers. The best predictor of future performance is past performance. Provide the best possible training.
