This needs to be shoved up moronic NFL players' collective @$$! (https://www.city-journal.org/html/hard-data-hollow-protests-15458.html)
The FBI released its official crime tally for 2016 today, and the data flies in the face of the rhetoric that professional athletes rehearsed in revived Black Lives Matter protests over the weekend. Nearly 900 additional blacks were killed in 2016 compared with 2015, bringing the black homicide-victim total to 7,881. Those 7,881 “black bodies,” in the parlance of Ta-Nehisi Coates, are 1,305 more than the number of white victims (which in this case includes most Hispanics) for the same period, though blacks are only 13 percent of the nation’s population. The increase in black homicide deaths last year comes on top of a previous 900-victim increase between 2014 and 2015.
Who is killing these black victims? Not whites, and not the police, but other blacks. In 2016, the police fatally shot 233 blacks, the vast majority armed and dangerous, according to the Washington Post. The Post categorized only 16 black male victims of police shootings as “unarmed.” That classification masks assaults against officers and violent resistance to arrest.

When liberals say the criminal justice system needs reformed, they do not mean what sane people would think it means.
Liberals see more blacks in jails and prisons, so their great idea is to change the laws that put them there, not change the behavior that got them arrested.

The FBI won't report crime data on urban centers/populations, claiming that the data would be skewed or otherwise unreportable.
Bullshit.
Anybody with half a brain can see that the south side of Chicago is a damned war zone.
Ditto for Memphis, Detroit, and other third world hellholes.
And I think it's telling that 2015 and 2016 show a rise in crime. There's Barry's legacy for you :whatever:

Funny how that coincides with the Obama DOiJ going after police departments and sanctioning them thus creating the "Ferguson Effect".
