Why is it then that overwhelming numbers of blacks are in favor of MORE police, not fewer?

Busted.   You now have officially zero credibility.   

So which is it,  20% or "overwhelming numbers"?   

If 80% favor the same or less police presence, that is not leaving a majority that favors more,  and certainly not an overwhelming one.    It is,  to do 2nd grade math,  an underwhelming 20% aka one fifth.   

You lied.   You are a liar.  At least have the decency to slink off and hide under your rock.
LOL!

"You can't make me admit the truth no matter how hard you try!"

There, I fixed it for you, liar.
Your “ fix” is mathematically impossible. Which is why I won’t re-change it.
Any other poster who agreed with you would admit to being as stupid as you

My fix had nothing to do with math, dolt.

You offered a quote. It was wrong. You won't admit it.

No math, unless you mean you are an absolute zero.
Zero is your grade on the math.

Why do you lie to your grandson?

And why do you pretend not to have said this:

Kind of... anti climactic.

Not to the base of the Democratic Party.

This ticket looks like America.

The drawn out drama hyped the choice. Showmanship.
Well yeah. It made so much sense that it is surprising they were considering anyone else.

I've said before that a huge responsibility of the VP will be rooting out the left-over corruption and malign forces that seeped into government during the Trump era and ripping it out.  Harris brings energy and know-how to that task.  A good pick focuses on Governance. 

Would like to see Warren as part of that effort.  Maybe as AG.

We know how Republicans like to project.  When they talk about the Deep State, what they are really talking about are their intentions.  Trump is going to be like a defeated general bombing the bridges on his retreat, leaving government even more broken than it is right now.  And that is saying something.
I want Warren to be chair of the Senate Banking Committee.

Better question. Why do 60 per cent of blacks resist cutting  back on police presence While 20 per cent want to increase that presence, which is overwhelming support of the police?

This was your original statement:
“The Police lie ALL the time”!
Why is it then that overwhelming numbers of blacks are in favor of MORE police, not fewer?

It's barely a paraphrase.

That you later modified it to fit reality doesn't change your initial position, Ward.

Not even a good try.
The try is yours 
Not mine 
Nor anyone else who can’t count to one hundred

You continue to be a lying buffoon.

You made the quote, not me.

That you claim not to have is hilarious.
You are the one whose math is fucked up.
Not me.
I can sense your utter embarrassment.
Being a school teacher and all.

You're still full of shit. Tell me again how 20% means "overwhelming numbers of blacks are in favor of MORE police."
LOL
The words are “ are in favor of the same amount and more”. (80 %) versus 20% favoring fewer
Nice. Except those weren't YOUR WORDS.
of course they were

No, the better question remains "why can you not admit when you are wrong?"

And no, it isn't overwhelming support. If they overwhelmingly felt fairly treated by the police, it would be support for them.

But "We would rather have them than not, even though we are mistreated by them is not support for them. It is fear of what others would do to them without that.

You still cannot come to grips with the systemic racism and individual racism that is arrayed against them.

Red might be fixating on promulgating fake math because real math isn’t working so well for the shrinking minority of utter assholes.

26 Years Later, Justice for Men Imprisoned for a Bogus Rape


May 7, 2018

The woman, dirty, disheveled and in tears, ran over to a patrol car parked along a Harlem street in the early morning of Jan. 18, 1991. She told police officers she had been kidnapped at knife point near her home in Queens and raped by three black men, whom she identified.

Before the end of the month, the police arrested two of the men she had named — Gregory Counts, then 19, and VanDyke Perry, then 21. They were charged with rape, sodomy, kidnapping and criminal possession of a weapon, according to court records. The third man was never caught.

Investigators had no physical evidence. Semen recovered from the woman did not match the two accused men. The prosecution’s case relied heavily on her testimony, which was inconsistent. The defense argued the woman, a recovering crack addict, fabricated the story to protect her boyfriend, who had shot Mr. Perry two months earlier and was wanted by the police, court records show.

Yet, in 1992, a jury convicted Mr. Counts and Mr. Perry on all counts except for the weapons charges. Mr. Perry ended up serving 11 years in prison, Mr. Counts 26.

On Monday, both men walked into a packed courtroom to hear the Manhattan district attorney, Cyrus R. Vance Jr., ask a judge in State Supreme Court to vacate their convictions based on newly discovered DNA evidence and the woman’s decision to recant her testimony.

“This wrongful conviction destroyed my life,” Mr. Perry said, wiping away tears. “But I never gave up my fight.”

Lying women...baaah!  should be tossed in prison instead of the men.
Investigators...baaah!  [some are probably ok]
Juries...good luck!

And the ratio of false allegations of rape, of sexual harassment, to rapes is tiny. And every time you talk about women, you sound like a creep.
