You are very, very bad at this. You should apologize for purposely misleading people especially when you have no proof to back up your statement. none.

Again you have no proof.

Overall, as a group, women voluntarily choose to go into lower paying fields.

However based on an apples to apples comparison-

A 2010 study based on the 2008 census compared the median income of single men and women under 30. In 147 out of 150 major cities woman earned similar pay or higher. 8% higher overall.

"But now there's evidence that the ship may finally be turning around: according to a new analysis of 2,000 communities by a market research company, in 147 out of 150 of the biggest cities in the U.S., the median full-time salaries of young women are 8% higher than those of the guys in their peer group."

Gosh could it be because women hold ~60% of the bachelors and masters degrees and degreed people get paid more? duh

Attention to detail isn't your strong suit, is it?

Blacks comprise 25% of the people killed by police. At the same time, blacks represent about half of that in terms of U.S. population (13.4%). So while "orders of magnitude" was a bit of poetic license, on a per capita basis police have killed just about 2x the black people than they did whites.

Disproved as cherrypicking.

Try harder.

You are that uninformed that you don't understand the fact that blacks commit crimes at a much higher rate than any race so cops interact with them more? You are that uninformed? hahahahahahahaha

When it comes to inter racial black/white violent crime. excluding homicides, it is 90% black on white. It's not a small number 592000 cases in 2018. ~550,000 attacks on whites by blacks ~50000 attacks by whites on blacks.

Blacks kill twice as many whites (500 in 2015) as whites kill blacks (229 in 2015). Blacks, at 13% of the population, commit 50% of murders, and 90% of black murder victims are killed by other blacks.

Blacks are just over 13% of the population commits 50% of the murders. Chicago is evenly divided between white, black, and Hispanic yet 70% of the murder victims and those who commit murders are black.

When looking at the death rate on felony interactions between police and race. Although it is a statistical tie, whites are killed at a higher rate.

Police have a bias in the favor of Eskimos where I live. They haven't killed any. <<< Do you get it yet?

When a group of people are raised in a single parent environment they will not be raised as well as those raised in a 2 parent family. Nothing to do with genetics.

hahahaha The link you provided grouped all women and did not account for the type of job I'll help.

6 of the 10 lowest paying degreed fields are female dominate. Meaning 70% or more in that field are women. Early child care, social services. Jobs women VOLUNTARILY choose.

While 8 or 9 of the 10 highest paying fields are male dominated. Electrical engineering, software development, mechanical engineering.

Anything else I can help you with?

Irony?

You are cherry picking while using that term. Blacks are the only race that commit a disproportionate amount of violent crime in the US, they commit 52% of the murders, and resist arrest several times more than whites.

Any honest semi-intelligent analysis would consider that a group that disproportionately commits more violent crimes would have more bad police outcomes.


The gap between Asians and whites is bigger than the gap between whites and blacks. Are police racist in favor of Asians over whites or are Asians committing less crimes and resisting arrest less?

What about the gaps between young and old adults, it is bigger. Do cops target young adults or are young adults committing more crimes? The gap between men and women?

how much of this 'plot' was manufactured by the fbi?

A paid FBI informant entrapped a Michigan man accused of plotting to kidnap and harm Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, according to a federal court filing Monday as defense lawyers leveled a broader attack on the foundation of a high-profile case involving alleged violent extremism.

True, but in the absence of a Republican, they will attack whoever is in authority, as seen in Seattle and Portland. It is Democrat Politicians that try to Coddle and Apease the Anarchist
