Gotta do things that don't scale, chief. Granted, instead of just making some generic Show HN and posting to reddit, it could be a worthwhile to privately PM users who comment and seem quite interested.

You could also just go to some old posts (HN or reddit) that are relevant to your product and reach out to anyone who seems ideal customer.

It's easier said than done, but hey, now you (hopefully) have some initial users, all for $0.

Thank you friend! Should have provided some context ;)

Hey, it worked for Ed Bernays.

The real question is "why is that?". Do blacks tend to get into more altercations with police, is it systemic racism, both?

Without further investigation, this graph can bait people into jumping to misinformed conclusions.

Furthermore, the site states: > black Americans account for less than 13 percent of the population but they are shot and killed by the police at a rate that’s over twice as high as for white Americans.

Yet they also account for over 50% of crimes in the U.S [0]. Like I said, ask questions, don't just look at a graph and raise pitchforks.

Never considered that. However, the question still remains: how did we get here and what caused this trend?
