Re: Ring Camera Catches Murder in the Streets
Well here something after all is said and done in Philadelphia some poor 19 yr old kid died for no reason. I don’t care if he was black or whatever color. He is still dead for no reason. Shoot the guy who started got shot and he survived. This guy got shot he didn’t even do anything.

Re: Ring Camera Catches Murder in the Streets
Can I have the link (Source) for that statistic. I believe you. I like to catalog my sources for future debates, and that statement, if true, is one I need to keep and remember. EDIT: (Nevermind, kustom80, I got you man. I did some research and found it. Thanks for pointing that out!) It’s true that around 13% of Americans are black, according to the latest estimates from the US Census Bureau. And yes, according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, black offenders committed 52% of homicides recorded in the data between 1980 and 2008. Blacks were disproportionately likely to commit homicide and to be the victims. In 2008 the offending rate for blacks was seven times higher than for whites and the victimisation rate was six times higher. Alternative statistics from the FBI are more up to date but include many crimes where the killer’s race is not recorded. In 2013, the FBI has black criminals carrying out 38% of murders, compared to 31.1% for whites. What about violent crime more generally? FBI arrest rates are one way into this. Over the last three years of data – 2011 to 2013 – 38.5% of people arrested for murder, manslaughter, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault were black. Clearly, these figures are problematic. We’re talking about arrests not convictions, and high black arrest rates could be taken as evidence that the police are RACIST. But academics have noted that the proportion of black suspects arrested by the police tends to match closely the proportion of offenders identified as black by victims in the National Crime Victimization Survey. This doesn’t support the idea that the police are unfairly discriminating against the black population when they make arrests. So why are black offenders – and young black men in particular – over-represented in America’s crime statistics? Judging from the comments on this forum, on could speculate any number of issues on this, from unapologetic racism to militant refusal to blame the problem on anything but historic white racism. Some criminologists think we could be simply confusing race for poverty or inequality: black people tend to offend more because they tend to be more disadvantaged, living in poorer urban areas with less access to public services, and so on. If you control for deprivation, people of different races ought to be similarly predisposed to commit crime. Or that’s the theory, at least. There is a lot of research in this area, but a lot of it is contradictory. This study of violent crime in deprived neighbourhoods in Cleveland, Ohio, found that reductions in poverty led to reductions in the crime rate in exactly the same way in predominantly black and white areas, suggesting poverty, not race, is the biggest factor. Other studies get different results. All sociologists have suffered from the same basic problem: finding urban white communities that are as disadvantaged as the poorest black neighbourhoods, so that you can get a fair comparison. Some thinkers play down the importance of poverty in favour of the “violent subculture theory”. This is the idea that some black communities, for some reason, have developed cultural values that are more tolerant of crime and violence. While it would be naïve to suggest that there is no racism in the US criminal justice system, victim reports don’t support the idea that this is because of mass discrimination. Higher poverty rates among various urban black communities might explain the difference in crime rates, although the evidence is mixed. There are few simple answers and links between crime and race are likely to remain the subject of bitter argument. So good luck. I got no where really...lol |

Re: Ring Camera Catches Murder in the Streets
Hot damn. Very painful way to go, slowly bleeding to death on the street from a GSW. I know the saying: live by the gun, die by the gun. In some of those blighted inner-city neighborhoods, untimely death is every bit as likely as marriage. This is even the case in a few select neighborhoods in Little Rock (hardly Philly or Detroit), where I live. However, unless you have personally survived a GSW before, you don't know what it feels like. I haven't felt it, but I have seen it. Depending on the caliber of the weapon used, it can either feel like hell or hell on steroids. |

Re: Ring Camera Catches Murder in the Streets
TBH, it's probably less painful than you're imagining Jealousy. His body was FULL of adrenaline. As a result he is experiencing far less pain than an average human. Which normally would allow him to continue to run away (as he does with the first shot that hits him). Hemorrhagic (Hypovolemic) Shock is also setting in as he is bleeding out on the street, causing him to be confused and eventually lose consciousness. TLDR: He is screaming like that because he is scared of dying. I see it all the time. People don't scream as loud for pain. They scream loud in fear. |

Re: Ring Camera Catches Murder in the Streets
I was with you until you started spewing your racist bullshit. You wanna play that game? Your people are a minority in this country yet commit the majority of the crimes. Every city that your people make up the majority of is guaranteed a crime ridden shit hole. Your people sit and suck on the public teet while the majority of white people work to pay for y’all to sit on your front stoop and smoke blunts. When y’all have kids the men bounce and you ladies pass the kids off to your grandmammys where they live until they end up in prison.
