How do I know they were gangbanger types? They told me. Besides always asking me if I could convert their SKS into full auto, or make them a silencer, their biggest complaint was always getting hassled by by the cops.<br />Hey guys.

These do not mean that 51% of murders resulted in arrests of black persons, only that 51% of the total arrests were black. So it does not account for multiple suspects in a single crime, for instance. The UCR's do not break down crime suspects by ethnicity except for murder. In murders with an identifiable suspect (whether arrested or not), 53% were identified as black. (30% were unidentified). <br /><br />In 2014, the Census Bureau said that 12% of the U S population was black, If males were half that, then 6%, and if males common to crimes, say 16 to 40, guess to be no more than 5% which is very, very generous, 5% of the U S population is committing more than half the murders and robberies, a third of the rapes and serious assaults, etc. About 32% of those shot by cops are black, while about 36% or 37% of those who murder cops are black. So, civilians are at higher risk than cops, although the single biggest health risk to a young black male is other young black males. <br /><br />Numbers don't lie. As any idiot knows, there is trouble with the no-longer existent poor black family. Young black men are turned loose on society with no parental supervision, no role models and no job skills at an early age, and then at some point, cops are supposed to somehow deal with them.

(From T...Let me show you how it's done, son...<br /><br />(From The First Deadly Sin by Lawrence Sanders, 1973)<br /><br />It did nag. Something. Delaney re-wrapped his half-sandwich, continued his routine pacing. Now the thing to do was to take it from the start, the beginning, and remember everything his friend had done, every action, every movement.<br /><br />He had first glimpsed him inside the lobby, talking to a doorman. Blank came outside, looked up at the sky, buttoned his coat, turned up the collar, started walking west. Nothing in all that.<br /><br />He recalled it all again. The slow walk along Third Avenue, Blank’s stop outside the pet shop, the way-<br /><br />Suddenly there was a car pulling up alongside Delaney at the curb. A dusty, four-door, dark blue Plymouth. Two men in the front seat in civilian clothes. But the near man, not the driver, turned a powerful flashlight on Delaney.<br /><br />“Police,” he said. “Stop where you are, please.”<br /><br />Delaney stopped. He turned slowly to face the car. He raised his arms slightly from his body, turned his palms outward. The man with the flashlight got out of the car, his right hand near his hip. His partner, the driver, dimly seen, was cuddling something in his lap. Delaney admired their competence. They were professionals. But he wondered, not for the first time, why the Department invariably selected three-year-old, dusty, four-door, dark blue Plymouths for their unmarked cars. Every villain on the streets could spot one a block away.<br /><br />The detective with the flashlight advanced two steps, but still kept a long stride away from Delaney. The light was directly in the Captain’s eyes.<br /><br />“Live in the neighborhood?” the man asked. His voice was dry gin, on the rocks.<br /><br />“Yes,” the Captain nodded.<br /><br />“Do you have identification?”<br /><br />“Yes,” Delaney said. “I am going to reach up slowly with my left hand, open my overcoat, then my jacket. I am going to withdraw my identification from the inside right breast pocket of my jacket with my left hand and hand it to you. Okay?”<br /><br />The detective nodded.<br /><br />Delaney, moving slowly, meticulously, handed over his buzzer and ID card in the leather folder. It was a long reach to the detective. The flashlight turned down to the badge and photo, then up again to Delaney’s face. Then it was snapped off.<br /><br />“Sorry, Captain,” the man said, no apology in his voice. He handed the leather back.<br /><br />“You did just right,” Delaney said. “Operation Lombard?”<br /><br />“Yeah,” the detective said, and asked no unnecessary questions. “You’ll be around awhile?”<br /><br />“Until dawn.”<br /><br />“We won’t roust you again.”<br /><br />“That’s all right,” Delaney assured him. <br /><br />(Needless to say Edward X. Delaney is a big white Irish cop on the NYPD)<br /><br />--Known UnknownBad Lieutenanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18091901464339059169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-9428684288919253712016-07-08T22:55:12.311-05:002016-07-08T22:55:12.311-05:00Thanks, Unknown, For what, I don't know, But I...Thanks, Unknown, For what, I don't know, But I can paste and copy too.Jon Ericsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05548597217632737704noreply@blogger.com
