I live up the hill about 5 miles from people who lets say, are more inclined to engage in criminal activity. Most of the Ring criminal activity that gets posted is down in the flat-lands. Deer, coyote, and turkey, and the Amazon package thief are all we usual get up here. The action is all down in Richmond where there appears to be a real shortage of baby formula and diapers.RaceBannon said:I had to Ring the house to keep the missus happy. We get coyote sightings and ner do wells going after Amazon. Now Ring has an option where Amazon can put the package in your garage

Early 90s living in LA, crime was a big issue. Local political race, I don't recall if it was Sherriff or city council or county office, but one of the candidates put out a mailer that depicted a car-jacking. Of course the car jacker was a white guy with a scruffy beard.MikeDamone said:
Security system ads only dare to use white middle class men to portray the burglar. They won’t even go the crazed meth addict route.RaceBannon said:I've noticed a couple of things about the post 2020 pandemic FLoyd the Savior TV season
Black women showed up in leadership roles in all sorts of prime time shows where they weren't before
The million dollar real estate agents in NY all of a sudden had a black woman assistant who was key to their business. Not a prop
The bad guys continued to be the handsome rich well dressed white guy who as a cheating businessman and murderer
The FBI shows had a new white supremacist group every week and a new Black female agent
It reminded me of the 70's which was the last time the racists in hollywood decided they needed to teach us racists a lesson or two
It's malarkey but its TV so beyond pointing out how stupid it is it is what it is
Pretty safe to bet that white guys probably made up less than 1% of all LA country car jackers. -
I have a Ring Doorbell, two cameras and am thinking of adding a third. Best part is using the speaker system to scare the wife when she's on the front porch reading.SFGbob said:I put up a Ring security camera a few months back. If you have Ring you'll know what I'm talking about. Everyone within a certain mile radius that you pick, can post video and still shots of anything their Ring camera picks up. So you get a lot of video of dirt bags stealing Amazon packages off of people's porches, auto-burglary, people sawing off the catalytic converters of Prius owners and the occasional prowler checking to see if someone forgot to lock their doors.
Lets just say, the Ads depicting the criminals don't quite match the video being posted.
Wonder what DnB would have to say in this string. Certainly couldn't argue with the data so he'd label the string as racist and declare victory.
Our Nextdoor group has moved away from race in descriptions. So now all we get is "tall man in a hat" which is extremely helpful. The unplanned result is, now users of the app will just assume the perp is black.

Been playing that game with local news reporting since the late 1980s. If they don't give the race of the perp you know the race of the perp. Same when the perp is described as a "teen" or "youth."georgiaduck said:

Criminal incidents on BART are almost always "teens" or "young males wearing pants." The need for baby formula and diapers is strong. -
