Some idiot leftist: I think 51 false arrests by a cop surely screwed up the crime stats for black people.
The actual article he clearly didn’t read: These cases go back two decades. It comes to about 2.5 cases a year, in a city with with hundreds of murders per year.
The actual article he clearly didn’t read: Also, the first two of these cases we’re going to mention are both Hispanic men.
Also, one dirty cop in one city doesn’t actually explain away all the other crime and murders all over the country, or the fact that most violence is intra-racial, and black people are also disproportionately likely to be victims.
Does he think white people were actually committing loads of these crimes, but the cops framed black people?
Humboldt Park ain’t exactly a country club, even today. And the cop himself is Hispanic. In fact, I’m having trouble finding a single person allegedly framed in the article who doesn’t sound Hispanic. HP is over 50% Hispanic and 40% Black. White people are a minority.
It’s ironic that idiots like Toure trying to exploit actual problems with cops for clout make those problems harder to address.
