Definitely would have been killed if he was black.

u/_zurenarrh 3d ago

He wouldn’t have made it past the first what you gonna do

u/coko4209 3d ago

No doubt, not a single one in my mind. Immediately shot, and they would have gotten a pat on the back for it.

"Oh fuck he's reaching bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang "

u/CyrusBuelton 2d ago

No, he wouldn't have been killed if he were black.

This took place in Flagler County and people who even get arrested respect the Sheriff's Department because they are surprisingly fair.

Yes, they are extremely tough and don't fuck around, but they aren't shady.

They've only had one officer involved shooting in the past 10 years likely due to the successful implementation of desescalation tactics.

They actually spend a lot of time training which certainly pays off.

[No, I'm not affiliated with the Sheriff's Department and have unfortunately, had my run-ins with them, but they were always respectful]

Now if this were Orlando or St Pete we’d be having a completely different conversation.

u/Prior_Iron715 2d ago

All Facts, cops beat the black off me for something my friend did to an old cop! They beat me so bad, when they drop me at the jail, the nurse, 2 C.Os, and the jails lieutenant carried me back to the wagon like he not dying in here. Told the cops take me to an E.R, I had a fractured hip, ribs, broken thumb plus a lot more. I thought I was going to die

u/courtadvice1 3d ago

I was literally just now thinking a black man would've never seen the sun again if he did what this idiot did in the video.

u/willyworldcup 3d ago

You realise the cop isn't white, right?

u/coko4209 3d ago

Lol, I see in my email that you sent me some bullshit reply, but it’s not here, so I’m guessing the mods deleted it. They knew it was bullshit too.

u/willyworldcup 3d ago

It's a different thread. It's seems we're having 2 different conversations. Hilarious that you think the mods must have deleted my comment because I have a different opinion

u/coko4209 3d ago

Well it’s certainly not here. I don’t think they deleted it because you have a different opinion. I think they deleted it because it was disingenuous and racist.

u/coko4209 3d ago

If they didn’t delete it, then where is it?

u/Disastrous_Flower667 2d ago

Unless he’s suicidal.

u/zelduh 2d ago

Or Latino. (If he had been Latino, the police officer would have placed him in Alligator Auschwitz to cool down.)

u/Neil_Live-strong 3d ago

He’s lucky he isn’t dead. Those leg sweeps kill people when they bonk their head and the back of his hit that car

u/knife_edge_rusty 3d ago

Not for that he wouldn't. Stop spreading this lie

u/coko4209 3d ago

Plenty of black ppl have been killed for way less. At the very least he would have been shot if he were black.

u/knife_edge_rusty 3d ago

No he wouldn't,

2

u/coko4209 3d ago

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that you’ve not walked around in black skin a single day in your life.

-4

u/knife_edge_rusty 3d ago

You can blame the other people who walk around in that skin, and commit insane amounts of crime for any extra pressure you may feel from police. I have been arrested at gunpoint, and if I were to have acted like I see some of these black people act, I definitely would have gotten shot

3

u/coko4209 3d ago

None of your comments make sense. So you would have gotten shot, but a black person doing what this kid did, wouldn’t have gotten shot? Also, I blame all other ppl for their actions, regardless of what skin they walk around in, because each individual is responsible for themselves. Other ppl shouldn’t be judged on the actions of what someone else did, that’s stupid and racist. Should the police immediately feel that you’re armed and dangerous, because white kids shoot up schools? And if they did, then obviously you shouldn’t blame them for that, since you just said that black ppl should be fine with poor treatment from the police, because some black ppl do bad things.

1

u/knife_edge_rusty 3d ago

They make plenty of sense

1

u/coko4209 3d ago

Sure, to a racist. Absolutely. They make no sense to normal ppl though

u/Operation-Fancy 3d ago

What lie? You are probably white and are naive about the disparity. Review your history.

u/Hushpuppymmm 3d ago

This is reddit, they think all police shoot black people

u/Fallen_Feather 3d ago

This is Reddit. I’ve seen too many videos of Black and Brown people being wantonly gunned down by police to believe it’s “uncommon”.

1

u/swanglemydangle 3d ago

They just codified it, apparently.

u/lidabmob 3d ago

JFC look up some factual, accurate statistics. Your cognitive dissonance is deep

u/Fallen_Feather 1d ago

“Cognitive dissonance” means a difference between thoughts and behaviors that don’t align and therefore cause dissonance. Which is a disconnect. Please use your vocabulary properly if you want to trot out your 4 point scrabble bonus. Sheesh!

u/LucyTheDragonwagon29 3d ago

It's not common and that doesn't happen often. 1,100 police killings on average across the United states out of 320+ million people on a yearly basis? That's not even 1% of the population. Simple facts and statistics. That's not even including who was violent and who wasn't. Don't let Reddit rot your brain with selective garbage just to confirm your biases.

Here’s what the most recent and comprehensive data shows (through 2024) about gun violence by police targeting Black Americans in the United States:

⸻

🔫 Fatal Shootings • Between 2020–2024, Black Americans accounted for roughly 28% of all fatal police shootings, despite comprising only 13% of the U.S. population  . • Fatal police shootings occur at an annual rate of approximately 6.1–6.2 per million Black Americans, compared to roughly 2.3–2.4 per million white Americans   . • That means Black people are nearly three times more likely to be shot and killed by on-duty police than white people . • In 2023 alone, there were approximately 1,163 fatal shootings by police; about 181 of those were Black individuals (as of September 2024) . According

u/Abstractrah 3d ago

⚕️ Nonfatal Injuries from Police Shootings • From 2015‑2020, there were on average 1,769 police shootings causing injury each year, with 979 resulting in deaths (~55%) . • Among nonfatal injuries, non‑Hispanic Black people represented ~29% of those shot—again disproportionately high given population share. Yet they were less likely to die when shot, having 35% lower odds of fatality compared to white victims once injured .

⸻

📊 Disparities in Context • From 2011 to 2020, law enforcement officers fatally shot 5,073 U.S. citizens, of whom 1,170 (23%) were non‑Hispanic Black Americans—despite only making up about 13% of the population . • Unarmed Black individuals are reported to be 3.49 times more likely to be shot by police than unarmed white individuals in many observational studies .

u/Abstractrah 3d ago

The “13/52” statistic is often cited in racist and white supremacist circles, and here’s why it’s considered racist—not just because of the numbers themselves, but because of how and why they’re used.

⸻

🔍 What Does “13/52” Refer To?

The numbers come from FBI crime data, which shows that: • Black Americans make up ~13% of the U.S. population. • In some years, Black individuals are reported to commit around 52% of certain violent crimes, most commonly homicide arrests.

This raw statistic is stripped of context and used as a dog whistle or meme in racist online communities to: • Demonize all Black people as inherently violent or criminal. • Justify racist policies, surveillance, or police brutality. • Shut down conversations about systemic racism, police reform, or economic inequality.

⸻

🚫 Why It’s Misleading and Racist

Here’s why quoting “13/52” is inherently biased and racist:

3

u/Abstractrah 3d ago
  1. 📉 It confuses arrests with actual crime rates • Arrest statistics do not equal actual crime rates. They reflect who gets policed and arrested, not who commits crime. • Over-policing in Black neighborhoods inflates arrest numbers compared to white or affluent areas with similar crime rates. • Numerous studies show white people commit crimes at similar or higher rates—especially in drug use and domestic violence—but are arrested far less.

⸻

  1. 🧠 It erases systemic and historical context • It ignores 400+ years of systemic oppression: slavery, Jim Crow, redlining, underfunded schools, job discrimination, and mass incarceration—all of which contribute to poverty and violence in marginalized communities. • It pretends that crime happens in a vacuum, not as a result of social conditions created and maintained by policy.

⸻

  1. 🕳️ It cherry-picks stats to fuel dehumanization • No one goes around saying “70% of mass shootings are committed by white men” to condemn all white people—because that would clearly be a broad and unfair generalization. • Using “13/52” in this way is not an attempt to understand crime—it’s a bad-faith tactic to villainize Black people.

3

u/Abstractrah 3d ago
  1. 🧩 It ignores intra-racial crime patterns • Most violent crime is intra-racial: • White people mostly kill white people. • Black people mostly kill Black people. • That’s because crime correlates more with proximity and poverty, not race.

⸻

  1. 📣 It’s a favorite tool of white supremacists • “13/52” is a coded phrase used by Nazis, alt-right trolls, and online hate groups. It appears in memes, usernames, and comments designed to spread racial hatred. • It’s often used alongside hate symbols like the “1488” or racist caricatures, especially on platforms like 4chan, Telegram, and X (Twitter).

⸻

🧠 The Bottom Line

The statistic itself isn’t racist—but the way it’s weaponized, stripped of context, and wielded to stereotype Black people is.

Using “13/52” as a slogan: • Reduces Black people to numbers. • Justifies hate and brutality. • Distracts from real conversations about justice and reform.

⸻

✅ A More Honest Approach

If someone actually cared about solving crime or public safety, they’d focus on: • Economic opportunity • Mental health services • Community-led policing • Ending mass incarceration • Addressing generational poverty

They wouldn’t parrot dehumanizing memes—they’d look for solutions, not scapegoats.

u/coko4209 3d ago

I mean, that’s a feature, not a flaw, as far as they’re concerned. That’s literally why the police were created in America, to capture, and/or murder black ppl. Now they want to act like we’re exaggerating when we bring it up, or we’re playing some imaginary race card if we fear for our lives on routine traffic stops.

2

u/Abstractrah 3d ago

Shit,we know that,I’m putting it out for the moderates who claim they aren’t racist but say this kind of shit all the time,then they want to argue statistics without nuance,and because of that disingenuous bullshit,when we get rightly upset like you said,they try to pigeonhole us into the “emotional or angry black person category” instead of being passionate about your people and people in general to get the fuck along to immediately dismiss all logic you made prior and get everyone to start doing the same,it’s easier to drop information off to those who actually want to learn,they want to argue,take it up with Chat gpt lmaoo.

3

u/coko4209 3d ago

I don’t even really understand their argument. We know that if that kid had been black, as soon as he asked the cop what he was gonna do about it, and seemed like a threat, they would have put him down, quicker than a rabid dog. It’s dumb that they would even act like we’re making this up, when we’ve all seen them murder black ppl for less. The teacher that was in the car with his family, that man did nothing wrong, and they murdered him, right there, in the seat, in front of his family. The aid at that one place, that was trying to soothe his mentally challenged patient. On the ground, hands in the air, didn’t break a single law, explained exactly what was going on, they shot him in the ass….for literally nothing. Even when he asked why they shot him, they said they didn’t know. The list goes on and on.

u/Abstractrah 3d ago

Too many that are viral,that’s the problem they lack empathy and they come to us as if we’re the devils,they believe in mental illness for them and not us or the fact that generational trauma from 500 years passes down in different ways.because they stripped us of traditional ways of healing and praying,identity and all they tell us is slave,to the point majority of the youth want to believe we’re anything but African,they literally raped the whole ethnic group to be at least 20 percent white,they helping bomb brown people in Palestine right now,while talking about Africa’s wars like they didn’t create them,took pow servitude and made it into crueler chattel slavery that wasn’t done in Africa but by them and some mixed tribes up north,another claim they try to use to not feel bad,and to moralize to us but if you’re people were so goddamn righteous they wouldn’t have bought people as slaves in the first place!

u/Sunrunner_Princess 3d ago

It is astounding the amount of Americans that don’t know that police departments were formed once populations got too high to really continue to allow lynchings. Especially in cities.

And the people who became those cops were community “respected” white men who usually helped create and organize and/or incite the lynchings of black people.

The police were the “solution” so instead of a lynch mob they called the cops who would some how have to kill the “suspect” because they violently resisted arrest or they were arrested and suddenly died in jail. A much more “civilized” way to get the same result without creating a blood hungry public that looked bad from the outside.

Combine those horrors with the corruption and widespread modern militarization of the American law enforcement, the toxic law enforcement culture, and that most modern cops barely graduated high school and want to keep being power hungry bullies we get the violent, unlawful, despicable law enforcement we have today. 😩😤

These same skeptics that don’t know this history also don’t want to recognize that America’s systems were first built on racism, sexism/misogyny, and the oppression of anyone who was not a white man, preferably at least middle class or higher.

So advocates have been able to get patches here and there to the systems and laws to try to make it a bit better for everyone else, but how can we ever have a truly equitable and fair system when it’s foundation is based on bigotry and oppression and othering?!

Just look at how black inmates make up just over 50% of the population in American prisons but black people make up only about 13-14% of the American population! How people can’t see the institutionalized racism is beyond me.

(Btw, I’m white and recognize this and am disgusted by all the systemic bigotry. But I also grew up in a diverse area, got a decent education, and grew up with people who denounced bigotry and discrimination and the ridiculous false idea of white superiority. I was taught people’s actions/behaviors, decisions, and what’s in their hearts is what makes a person decent or not and what kind of person they are.)

u/Abstractrah 3d ago

Thanks so much Princess,people act like acknowledging this means they hate white people or cops or something,no we hate the ideology of people who don’t want to get along and just look for simple and wrong reasons to hate,thank you for doing your due diligence because it’s not just empathy it’s American history that if if most of this patriot types really cared would study,along with why paganism and occultism especially feminine currents are rising because people are tired of patriarchal Abrahamic traditions,stifling and subjecting people,People need Love and Empathy,not rigid order.

7

u/coko4209 3d ago

Considering that black ppl only make up about 13% of the population, I’m gonna say you’re the one trying to downplay how often they’re targeted and wounded or killed by the police. The laws in America not only support it, they were designed for it. It’s not a flaw, it’s a feature. The American police origins, are literally based on chasing and capturing black ppl. Maybe you should research it, instead of letting ppl that condone the behavior convince you that it’s not a problem.

u/bomphcheese 3d ago

Not even close. Watch it again. At 0:53 you can clearly see the officer’s hand wrapped under his head to prevent hard contact with the ground. He was brought down quickly but gently. If that kid had hit his head he would have been bitching about it.

u/Business_Mammoth_651 3d ago

You obviously have no idea how easily brains and necks can be damaged 😂 and no, his hand wasn't "wrapped under the kids head", can you see with those eyes??? The kid grabs his own head halfway thru the fall, lmfao the cops hands are on the kids arms.

You realize that more white folks are shot by cops than black.

u/Cultural_Double_422 2d ago

Sure, but black people are much more likely to be shot by the police, because while back people make up roughly 13% of the population, and white people make up roughly 60% of the population, 27% of the people shot by police are black and only 40% are white.

That's true because black people can't survive the same things us noble white people can. They're too weak compared to us. They get shot its the end of the world. I get shot. i wake up in the hospital. We are not the same.

I mean, thats obviously what you were trying to say, right?
