We need a text version of this, those references are too small to read.

I'd like to share the image on Twitter/Parler to rustle some jimmies, but without being able to read the sources it's kind of useless.

Not that angry liberals actually read sources anyway, but maybe it stands the chance of redpilling a normie or two.

Well okay, I'll take on that task. Note I'm not checking the sources, just transcribing:

CLAIM #1: "POLICE ARE TARGETING AND KILLING BLACKS AT HIGHER RATES"

When you control for crime and police encounters, no racial bias in police shootings is found. Police are also quicker to pull trigger against white cirminals than black ones.

Scientific Study #2: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/1745-9133.12187

CLAIM #2: "BLACKS DON'T COMMIT MORE CRIME, POLICE ARE IN BLACK AREAS MORE"

Black Americans commit homicide at a 10 times higher rate than whites, and commit violent crime at a rate that is 5 times higher than whites per 100,000. Black males make up only 6% of the population, yet account for over 50% of all homicides and violent crime.

CLAIM #3: "POLICE ARE THE PROBLEM, DEFUNDING WILL MAKE OUR AREAS SAFER"

In 2019, police killed 14 unarmed blacks and 25 unarmed whites. In that same year, around 8,000 blacks killed other blacks, most went unsolved. In 2019 over 100 blacks died from falling down the stairs, and thousands died from car accidents.

CLAIM #4: "BLACK CRIME IS SOLELY DUE TO POVERTY, EDUCATION, UNJUST SYSTEM"

Black cities in America have higher homicide rates than many third world South & Central American cities. Even the poorest white areas do not experience the levels of violent crime that low, middle, and even high income black areas do. The black crime and incarceration rate is also FAR higher than it was in the 40's, 50's, 60's, and 70's.
