Original Note:
The Ferguson effect is a theory (politicized and lacking strong proof), coined and used by police/FBI and politicians. Unproven theories cannot be factual or "correct". ( Mr. Girdusky - "an author" - presented the influence of the Floyd events on black crime as fact. ) https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0047235216300010 https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/us/politics/ferguson-effect.html https://time.com/4092367/is-the-ferguson-effect-for-real/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferguson_effect
