On MSNBC: Reporter from Tulsa newspaper said that they researched use of force incidents in 2014,

the latest year they have statistics for, and they've found that African Americans were the targets of the use force 4 times the rate of Whites.

When will White America remove its head out of its ass and realize the we've got a serious fucking problem?!? Jesus H. Christ. It's so frustrating.
