How about unarmed dudes getting killed?

Police killed more than 100 unarmed black people in 2015

As Frown said, Unarmed doesn't mean innocent. But obviously Cops do bad shit. Nowhere near as much as criminals of course.

You used the word conspiracy. I said agenda. Not the same thing.

Cause that's how they're trained. If you shoot someone in the leg they might still be able to shoot you back. If they're dead there's much less of a chance. Also, a leg is much harder to hit than a chest. The chest is the biggest target on a human body and so it only makes sense to aim for it.

Instead of trying to argue, I'll just quote blanks post since it's along what I believe as well.

It has to do with control. By whipping people up into a frenzy and believing that cops are going to kill them, the black vote gets secured.
