From The Daily Wire:
San Francisco PD Will Stop Releasing Mugshots To Combat Racial Bias
Police Chief Bill Scott has ordered the San Francisco Police Department to stop releasing mugshots of suspects in an effort to combat racial bias, according to a statement released on Wednesday.
“This policy emerges from compelling research suggesting that the widespread publication of police booking photos in the news and on social media creates an illusory correlation for viewers that fosters racial bias and vastly overstates the propensity of black and brown men to engage in criminal behavior,” said Scott.
It is not being overstated. The majority of crime in urban cities is committed by black people. Usually men from 16 to their 30's. The numbers simply do not lie.Nothing to do with racism at all. Dealing with truth.
