Michelle Obama says she fears for her daughters when they drive amid police shootingsby Jake Dima, Breaking News Reporter || May 07, 2021 03:16 PM
Former first lady Michelle Obama fears for her daughters when they get behind the wheel of a car amid police use-of-force incidents, she said. Obama is "breathing a sigh of relief" after former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin was found guilty of unintentional second-degree murder, third-degree murder, and second-degree manslaughter in the death of George Floyd, though she said there's "still work to be done." “Many of us [black people] still live in fear as we go to the grocery store or walking our dogs or allowing our children to get a license. I mean, just imagine — [my daughters] are driving, but every time they get in a car by themselves, I worry about what assumption is being made by somebody who doesn’t know everything about them," she said of her daughters, Malia and Sasha, in an interview with CBS News released Friday.
Sorry, do young black women face anywhere near the sheer amount of arrests and killings at the hands of police? ![[giveup]](//storage.proboards.com/7182076/images/FSYefibmKqtatIXMgHZg.gif)
Especially compared to the sheer amount of young women killed by their young black male counterparts?
She's every bit the divisive POS her husband is.

I'm also pretty sure that Malia and Sasha are still under the protection of the Secret Service. If they get pulled over, the cop is getting pulled over too.

===================================
So roughly 1 black woman for every 25 black men? Gender bias? |

===================================
So roughly 1 black woman for every 25 black men? Gender bias? 6,280 people have been killed by police since Jan. 1, 2015
Of that number: 26% were black 19% were Hispanic... however the database makes no distinction between "white Hispanic" or "black Hispanic" so the preceding and following numbers might skew
51% were white 4% were "other"
95% were male (mostly between the ages of 20 and 40)
The vast majority of police shootings occur in densely populated, urban areas... that just happen to match where the most crimes are being committed year after year.

6,280 out of over approximately 30 Million arrests. So that's a minuscule amount.
That 26% stat might make some believe they're unfairly targeted/arrested.
And 95%? Clearly........we need to start busting the ladies........for equality's sake.
You make densely populated urban areas sound somewhat less appealing. |

6,280 people have been killed by police since Jan. 1, 2015
And just for comparison's sake......... it appears over 2,150 police officers have been killed over that same time period.

You make densely populated urban areas sound somewhat less appealing. 1. Yup
2. Only when compared to the national figure of 13% black population without accounting for the actual population where the incident occurred.
3. Maybe the ladies need to start being more aggressive and "manly"
4. They certainly are less appealing in the US

And probably not during the same incident where a suspect was shot. |
