TORONTO – Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani made controversial remarks about the shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown, who was shot and killed by a white police officer in Ferguson, Missouri during an appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
“93 percent of blacks are killed by other blacks,” Giuliani said. “We’re talking about the exception here.”
Giuliani made the remarks during a heated exchange with Georgetown professor Michael Eric Dyson, who said Giuliani was applying a “false equivalency.”
“Black people who kill black people go to jail,” Dyson said. “White people who are policemen who kill black people do not go to jail.”
