I killed a few I shouldn't have. Agree the test is a bit funny - I was looking at hands holding something - I couldn't tell if they were black or white unless if was something unconscious.

 

Unfair! I hate cell phone use in public! It's a good shot!
I didn't go through it all, I kept getting shot because the folks are in common shooting stances or hollywood-ized brandishing positions, and I couldn't tell quick enough... and i hate white people.

 

I just hate them ALL!!!! :wink:

I found on most them their race didnt register in my mind until the decision to shoot or no shoot was decided, I was too busy looking at the objects in the hand.

I kept loosing points for taking too long to act.

bogus test.....background color and object position has more to do with reaction time than race......i was focused on the "objects" trying to get a good score and never once noticed if I was shooting a race or color...

btw...... "George Bush doesn't care about black people!"

I didnt shoot anyone who was innocent...but I got shot twice by the bad guys...LOL...guess IM DEAD.....

 

I got shot early in the event. Nope color didn't matter, but come on, how many people hold their cell phones at the ready? I was pretty upset at myself for holstering my weapon on a guy with a gun. Split second to decide if you die or go to prison for an illegal shooting. That is seriously the issue in so many shootings.

nice reaction times, primal.

 

I found it more that slightly biased. The white guys were holding guns in aggressive postures (most of the time) while the blacks (most of the time) werent. pointless but a neat test of your choice making skills.

I didn't do too bad. I had a slow start & I did shoot 1 good guy with a silver cell phone with an antennae held at the ready.

You guys are right about 1 thing. You really are concentrating on what is in their hand more than anything else.

Thats one thing I don't envy cops for, they have to make these decisions and if they are wrong they may be dead or shoot someone by accident and catch all sorts of hell.

Damed if you do, damed if you don't kind of deal.

 

I didn't take the test, but to answer the question in the post title: No, because we are, all of us, black, white, yellow, blue, red, green, pink, etc., part of the human race.

Looking at hands only.

 

After being a police officer at one point in life,I was sure I would be jaded toward the for lack of a better word the black males. My times turned out almost equal for both. No it is not pounded into you in academy that blacks are more prone to commit a crime. Our surroundings do that enough for many of us. When I was an officer I can't ever remember a time when I suspected any color over another. Even when working a crime in the projects I never did just suspect whatever race was in the projects. Many times drive by shootings were done white on black or vice versa. Many times an officer has had to eat his words by making a stupid statement about it was a crime purported by the wrong race.

The race factor did register to the effect that I could tell what the color of the skin on the hand holding the item was. But race did not determine what my choice was. Hell I shot the armed white guys faster. BTW, I shot two good guys and got shot once.
