Fake research and The race baiting charlatans in the Black community are doing the real harm!7/18/2018 Police Killings Tied to Poor Mental Health in Blacks
"Black individuals in the United States are three times more likely than whites to be killed by police, but new research suggests it is the killing of unarmed blacks that adversely affects the mental health of this population. "When we sum up to a population level, we find that these killings led to an additional 55 million days of poor mental health each year in the black American adult population," study investigator Atheendar S. Venkataramani, MD, PhD, Department of Medical Ethics and Health Policy, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, told Medscape Medical News. * * * The greatest effect on mental health was observed 1 to 2 months after exposure. The killing of an unarmed black or white individual did not affect white respondents to the survey. * * * In addition, many scholars and policy makers have interpreted police killings of unarmed black Americans as a signature manifestation of structural racism. So, another reason to do the study was to try to understand how manifestations of structural racism influence health," he said." In essence, progressives believe in the wishful thinking of institutional racism, which is just a buzzword for the idea, "We can't find any over racism but blacks are not outcome equal with whites so, there must be "institutional racism." Only in the social sciences can a lack of evidence prove a nonsensical proposition. If these "researchers" opened their eyes, the truth would be obvious. After the police kill a person, one of two things happens. If the dead are black, the race baiters show up and create a carnival atmosphere alleging anti-black racism (frequently against a majority black police force) was the cause and demanding all kinds of things from the police, the government, including changes which the black communities often do not want like reductions in police patrols in dangerous inner city black communities. Rallies and protests are held, and the community is whipped into a frenzy often with the race baiters implying the black community should be compensated in some way. This usually means the race baiter will be compensated. The police are bullied into public investigations frequently with multiple secondary "investigations," analysis, and conclusions from questionable sources. There is no moving on from these situations and the relationship between the police and the community sours. The race baiters use this to force less policing of black communities which ensures more crime, which ensures more race baiting opportunities for the race baiters, which creates more opportunities for graft and corruption. This is the real institutional racism which is occurring in minority communities. If the dead are white usually nothing happens. Perhaps the police investigate the shooting quietly but there is seldom a carnival atmosphere or allegation of anti-white racism or the need for reparations from the police. No race baiting carnival barkers show up to demand money, the community simply reads in the paper that another criminal was shot and killed by police for some ascertainable reason. The people quickly determine that the problem was the criminal, not the police and move on. Fake research like this is the problem along with the race baiters like Al Sharpton, not the police. Police officers make mistakes, and we need to monitor the police and demand high-quality training of officers to make sure these mistakes are limited. More importantly, we need to find ways to limit the race baiters and eliminate the rubbish social "science" which has infected our public sphere. Articles like this, research like this are a significant part of the problem.
