Don't Tase The Bro's?


Apparently the idiots at the Cedar Rapids Gazette believe there should be some sort of quota for taser usage.

3 of 10 Tasered in Cedar Rapids are black

The Gazette breaks down the demographics of the 30 people on which Tasers were used on through August of this year and compares it as a percentage of the population.

9 of those tasered were Black, blacks account for 3.7 % of the Cedar Rapids population.

14 of those tasered were White and whites are 92% of the population.

The rest of the 30 consist of 1 Hispanic, with no break down for population percentage, 1 man whose race was described as “other”, and 5 whose gender and race were not noted.

The Gazette only gives you a portion of the story and the scientific community is united in that fact.

What is the breakdown by demographic of those that commit crimes?

Maybe then you might see if the statistics are out of line.

The Cedar Rapids Police Chief puts it bluntly, “We arrest people who commit crime”.

SHOCKING!
