The reason for the higher crime rates isn’t directly relevant to the discussion of police “racial bias”.
It’s not? How do you know?
Police bias seems likes it could be directly related to crime rates (since it’s the cops who do the arresting).
How did this “racial bias” manifest itself? Them acting like they believed blacks were more likely to be criminals than whites.
Judgements based only on race.
Or even willingness to shoot a black who was running at him and grabing for his gun?
I’m not arguing every white cop who shoots a black person is racist. Not even close. I’m trying to understand what impact implicit racial bias might have in policing.

Good chat. I’m out.
