Black people 'disproportionately' arrested, assaulted by Toronto police: OHRC

The idea that the Toronto police are less racist than their American counterparts is a “myth,” according to the head of the Ontario Human Rights Commission.

Black people face 'disproportionately' high charge, arrest rates from Toronto police: report

If you commit more crimes, then you are more likely to get more attention from the police.

Go to google images, type in Toronto shooting suspect.

So what? No one cares. The cops are just doing their job. I think we should increase their funding so they can arrest more violent criminals.

Higher poverty rate, hip hop gangster culture, resentment of the greater society and an unwillingness to comply with simple commands ( like "stop and put your hands up") when encountering police..... these, along with some police racism probably accounts for the higher per capita numbers.

His comment didn't say shootings. It said more crime.

Jamaicans and Somalis are typically the ones involved in shootings in Toronto/Gta. Does that mean all the other black ethnicities/nationalities have to suffer?

Why isn't there a surge of random search warrants on middle aged white guys? They are the ones that tend make, distribute, and use child porn, not to mention be pedophiles. The google search that you've suggested applies to white males, when searching for those arrested and convicted of the crimes that I've just mentioned.

Very few black people are in gangs. Most of the people assaulted by cops are probably not in gangs.

I got stopped by the police very recently. I heard his radio, he was needed to do some real police work, that's when the stop ended.

haha! I was about to post the exact same thing.

You know as well as the rest of us know that race crime statistics are no longer kept. They used to, but not any more because when they did it showed that black people were committing most of all the crime in Toronto despite only being a tiny percentage of the population. So there was a howl of outrage that these statistics were causing non blacks to be prejudiced or at least wary of black people.

So race crime statistics were abandoned.

If you're looking for anecdotal evidence however, you need look no further than the Toronto Police Service Most Wanted board where just about every face is a black face.

Or, you can look at the homicides in Toronto and just about every murder victim is black and was shot by another black person.

I have no problem with race crime statistics being kept. But I don't get to make those decisions and frankly, that ship has sailed. So much so that now when the media reports a violent crime now they don't even report the race of the perpetrator. All you will hear is "a 6 foot tall male with a slim build, etc etc." Laughable.

Denying reality won't help fix the reality.

Kids have no respect for authority. The root of it is the absence of the father. Either the father is too busy working, can't put up with the mother's shit, can't control the mother's shit, can't control his kid's shit, he gets divorce raped, doesn't know he is father, or doesn't want to be the father (hip hop culture). This problem is only going to get worse; especially when these degenerate kids have more degenerate kids of their own. And we wonder why the early twentysomething SP's say one thing (bait) then do another (switch). Par for the course boys

They're Jamaican and Somali primarily. The cops will even tell you that, but cannot say that through the media. A lot of these "black" people are biracial half whites.

Saying that they are "black" is a disservice to the whole black community.

People tend to differentiate other ethnic groups and nationalities from eachother but for some reason black people are looked at as just one group, when they are ironically more diverse.

Hey Charlemagne, if white people and Toronto police are so racist (like you constantly claim), then why don't Chinese people or East-Indian people face 'disproportionately' high arrest rates from Toronto police as well??

Maybe they are liked better. I've heard EE complaining about police mistreatment before.

Why aren't white hassled for being pedophiles?

If you go out west where there are more Asian gangs, you may hear something different.

The OHRC is not an independent unbiased organization. Given that reality, any objective research coming from them has to be met with a high degree of skepticism.

 

[Leimonis]

on the bright side, “The mortality rate for white jail inmates in 2016 (240 deaths per 100,000 white inmates) was more than double the rate for black inmates (118 deaths per 100,000 black inmates) and almost triple the rate for Hispanic inmates (87 deaths per 100,000 Hispanic inmates),” https://journalistsresource.org/stu...-justice/deaths-police-custody-united-states/

I think in studies like this the conclusions are reached before the study begins.

Maybe. Or maybe they dont commit nearly as much crime as some other races do

Why aren't white hassled for being pedophiles?

Because sex crimes like that usually arent committed out in the open.
They are almost always committed by family members or relatives, and that is much harder to catch.
Also, when was the last time you saw 2 pedophiles shooting it out downtown Toronto??

Ah, so they're targeting Asians because there are so many Asian gangs there. Sound familiar??

Go read the CBC article in my original post.

It shows that police have been disproportionately targeting black people for things like marijuana even though others do it at the same rate.

Also most use of force complaints involve black people who are unarmed and don't have a criminal record.

This has nothing to do with gangs.

Also, nobody can prove which race commits the most crime. Policing is not evenly distributed and race based data is not kept. Police tend to pick on lower class people, rather than richer people who commit crimes that directly affect all of society. If hobbying was done solely by black men, it would be policed more heavily.

Sex offences against minors are way more heinous. They deserve more attention.

Crime stats are available by race for the US. Last I saw, blacks committed, depending on the category, between 28 and 52 percent of crime. They are only about 13 percent of the population.
