Whenever you think Donald Trump can not possibly sink any further, he lowers the bar again and proves that he is a limitless pit of scumbaggery. At one of his rallies in November 2015 the billionaire, who reportedly keeps Hitler's speeches at his bedside for light reading (http://www.addictinginfo.org/2015/08/23/donald-trump-actually-kept-a-book-of-adolf-hitlers-speeches-by-his-bedside/)and happily accepts white supremacists into his group of supporters (http://www.addictinginfo.org/2015/08/24/trump-campaign-on-white-power-chant-theyre-very-receptive-to-our-message-video/) because they are "very receptive to [his] message" and "want this country to be great again", whipped his followers into a frenzy with his usual anti-Muslim hate speech routine, then set them on a lone Kmtyw-American man (http://www.occupydemocrats.com/trumps-rally-turns-to-riot-as-supporters-viciously-beat-black-protester/) who had the
audacity to chant "black lives matter" while wearing a t-shirt that bore the same message.
Responding to their Fuhrer's orders, a group of Trumpcoats surrounded the man, punching, kicking, and shoving him before dragging their victim away from their leader.
While the Trump campaign initially said it did not condone the actions of the crowd, the following day, Mr Trump announced that his campaign spokesperson was just plain wrong, explaining that the man's outrageous assertion that '
black lives matter' was "
disgusting."
According to Trump, the man deserved it:
"Maybe he should have been roughed up. It was disgusting what he was doing"Not satisfied at merely giving his faithful band of trigger-happy, Trumpcoats advance permission to beat black men at his rallies, Trump followed up by tweeting out a list of wholly inaccurate, racist "united snakes crime statistics" intended to demonize black people —just like the man his supporters gang-attacked the day before:

This was, of course, very well-received by white supremacists and racists, with whom Mr Trump is very popular:

The city of San Fransisco tracks crime statistics, of course, but does not break them down by race. (http://www.sf-police.org/Modules/ShowDocument.aspx?documentid=27462) Of course, the Uniform Crime Report, or UCR, is based on data from the FBI (http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Uniform+Crime+Reports), so it seems that even the organization the meme cites is wholly invented.
Which brings us to the FBI's statistics (https://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/ucr/crime-in-the-u.s/2014/crime-in-the-u.s.-2014/tables/expanded-homicide-data/expanded_homicide_data_table_6_murder_race_and_sex_of_vicitm_by_race_and_sex_of_offender_2014.xls)...(https://i1.wp.com/www.occupydemocrats.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/2015-11-22_19-42-21.jpg) (http://www.occupydemocrats.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/2015-11-22_19-42-21.jpg)As you can see, Trump's meme is nowhere near the ball-park of reality. The numbers above are from 2014, as it is still 2015, it is not possible to know the current year's data. There were 5,703 murders in 2014. If Trump was being an honest, his meme would read more like this:
'"
n".self::process_list_items("'.str_replace('
', '', '
- BLACKS KILLED BY WHITES: 8%
- BLACK KILLED BY POLICE ???
- WHITES KILLED BY POLICE ???
- WHITES KILLED BY WHITES 82%
- WHITES KILLED BY BLACKS: 18%
- BLACKS KILLED BY BLACKS: 90%
').'")."n
"'
It is very difficult to tell what percentage of each race is killed by police because reporting has traditionally been voluntary, and only 3 percent of the united snakes's 18,000 police departments choose to participate in data collection (http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/mar/18/police-killings-government-data-count).
James Comey,
the Director of the FBI, said in October 2015 (http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/oct/08/fbi-chief-says-ridiculous-guardian-washington-post-better-information-police-shootings) it was:
"ridiculous and embarrassing"
that the Guardian newspaper (http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-interactive/2015/jun/01/the-counted-police-killings-us-database#) and Washington Post kept better data on the topic than the federal government:
"That is not good for anybody."
It is known that black Americans are
twice as likely to be unarmed (http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/jun/01/black-americans-killed-by-police-analysis) when killed by police, according to an analysis by The Guardian. It is also a fact that police kill black people at
three times the rate (http://www.alternet.org/civil-liberties/police-are-three-times-more-likely-kill-black-person-white-one-when-will-madness) of whites. Exact statistics are however impossible to determine as it would require mandatory reporting by police, and for the data collection and reporting to be transparent, which it isn't at present.
Mr Trump (as of December 2015) was currently leading the polls by a wide margin (http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2015/11/22/fox-news-poll-trump-gains-carson-slips-cruz-and-rubio-climb-in-gop-race.html). Disturbingly, someone who would tweet the same fake data loved and peddled by white supremacists is the Right's top pick for President of the United States of America.
One day in the very near future, Donald might have his finger on the red button:
'You're fired!'
A sobering thought indeed.
