And why it is that Black people are pulled over at a higher rate than Whites or Hispanics or Asians...
(just like the same questions are asked why Black kids are disciplined in schools at a higher rate)
It could be that it is because statistics ALSO show where the crime rate is....
And where the crimes are committed...
And where the cities put their police assets to combat the crime levels.
But to actually put the blame for the crimes (and subsequent arrests) at the feet of those who commit the crimes is.....racist.
Which is why the issue will never get fixed.
