Ahhh. Statistics, again. Attributed to which source? Which research entity compiled the numbers? During what month? What year? When were the findings published? Who paid for the research? What was the context? What was the reason? What's your point?

1. If you're a professional police officer you don't assume anything. That kind of bravado will get you killed.
2. If you're a professional police officer you don't operate with a false sense of security around white persons, and a heightened sense of caution around black persons. Both assumptions will get you killed. 3. If you're a professional police officer you rely on your training. Not so-called "common sense" - which will get you killed.
4. And if you're a professional police officer you don't allow racism to be your guide as you protect and serve. Doing so will get you killed.
