arrest data for racial bias
Reuters


By Julia Edwards

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Justice Department on Monday said it will begin collecting data on stops, searches and arrests made in five U.S. cities to weed out possible racial biases within the criminal justice system.

Later this year, a $4.75 million federal grant will be awarded to recipients who compete for the funds to work with their local law enforcement to analyze arrest data and find ways to reduce any biases they find, particularly toward young minority men.

Black men were six times more likely, and Latino men were 2.5 times more likely, to be imprisoned than white men in 2012, according to Justice Department data.

Attorney General Eric Holder said the data collection effort is in response to President Barack Obama's call for better relations between law enforcement and young men of color following the "not guilty" verdict in the shooting death of black Florida teen Trayvon Martin.

"Racial disparities contribute to tension in our nation generally and within communities of color specifically, and tend to breed resentment towards law enforcement that is counterproductive to the goal of reducing crime," Holder said in a video address released Monday.

The grants for data collection align with the goals of the Obama administration's "My Brother's Keeper" initiative that supports efforts by nonprofits and businesses to address the high murder rate and low educational performance among young minority men.

They just don't get it, do they?

If you reinforce bad behaviour, you will most likely get increased levels of bad behaviour.

"Isn't that cute, "junior" said a bad word, why don't we all smile and laugh?"

"The guy is probably followed you, because he is a racist. Next time, confront him and assault him"

"Why did you shoot my son, in self defense, you racist"

How many black Crips and Bloods are there compared to white Crips and Bloods? How many Latino MS 13s are there compared to white MS 13s?

Study over.
