I think worse than Dubya. GWB at least had a little bit of empathy when confronted with things head on.

“Putting aside a police officer shooting a black man, most of the crimes are black on black white on white in the communities. Most by far," Bush added.

He said he supported the government becoming involved when there is “overt discrimination.”
WTF, is this code phrase for keep the bigotry on the QT and we’re good? Fucking asshole.
“The police shooting of unarmed black males, which is what the conversation is about as I understand it, is very small.”
Then when you add in the children, women, seniors, teens, professionals, indigents, urban, rural… wow, it suddenly becomes “overt.”
"The gun violence in our urban areas is clearly up in most big areas.
What was Josh talking about last week, with the GOP theme about scary inner-city blacks with their guns killing everyone? You’d never think crime has gone anywhere but up.

What does this dumb-fck think happens to crime rates in communities where calling the police is commonly a waste of time at best, and often demeaning or downright dangerous?

Agree a waste of time, last time I called the police was in the 70s and it took them well over 4 hours to respond… I haven’t bothered much since, even for traffic accidents just exchange info and go on my way, quicker and much more satisfying.
