Oregon moved to crack down on racially motivated 911 calls on Monday, responding to a series of publicized incidents across the country where predominantly white civilians called the police on black people going about everyday activities like napping or barbecuing.

Victims of those police calls would be able to sue the caller for up to $250, under a measure overwhelmingly approved by state Senate.

The move is a joint effort by the Oregon Legislature's only three black lawmakers and is meant to "shine a spotlight on an issue African Americans have known for far too long," according to sponsoring Rep. Janelle Bynum.

"When someone gets the police called on them for just existing in public, it sends a message that you don't belong here," said Bynum, the only black member of the House.

Ok free to offend...here goes.

What no one will say, but everyone knows, is that if you live in certain neighborhoods, almost zero(or zero) black people live there.

Because black people commit a monstrously disproportionate amount of crime, if someone in one of these neighborhoods sees a black person in the area, they are calling the cops.

So really, these “racist” reports to 911

#1 are probably valid calls.
#2 are entirely because of the actions of the black population as a whole.

This is the sad conundrum that society is in.

The statistics show that blacks commit the majority of violent crime, overwhelmingly. One example of this is the glaring sad statistic that black males make up 6% of the US population but commit 50% of the homicides.

Is it then racist to be weary of a demographic that commits more violent crime than any other demographic? Or is it just smart survival skills?
