garbo, could you explain, in simple words, what is the message from that side by side comparison?

A search for "Three black teenagers" generates police mugshots.
A search for "Three white teenagers" generates fun!

I got it. But what's the underlying message (other than "Oh look!"). Is it that google uses some sort of faulty algorithm or that these search results actually reflect how frequent these pics are? So, in other words, is it google that is racist or the reality?

It would be a reflection of how people speak about those two groups (which in speak including news media) online. So in other words, none of the conclusions that you drew.

Or it could be that black teenagers commit more crimes than white teenagers?

Google images, afaik, isn't supposed to be a viewer of who instigates more crimes. :hmm:

Leaving aside bit about crimes committed as I don't have any stats on that other than I know that yes, as with adults, proportionally more black teens are arrested than white teens.

QuotePolice: Man punched officer, shouted 'Black Lives Matter'
Updated: March 30, 2016 — 8:06 AM EDT

BELLEVUE, Pa. (AP) - Police say a man punched a suburban Pittsburgh officer who was sitting in a parked police cruiser then yelled "Black Lives Matter" as he was taken into custody.

Twenty-three-year-old Domenick Hoy has been jailed on aggravated assault, resisting arrest and other charges pending a preliminary hearing April 7.

Bellevue police say Hoy was running and screaming toward the officer's car as it was parked across from the police station on Thursday night. When the officer rolled down his window to ask Hoy what was wrong, police say the Bellevue man punched the officer, breaking his nose.

Online court records don't list an attorney for Hoy.

Bellevue is a tiny borough just west of Pittsburgh.

Yep. Though usually when I hear people refer to teenagers in general it is usually just how much they suck.

Though the 'three white teenagers' sure seems surprisingly multi-ethnic. It must be a reflection of how the definition of "whiteness" expands.

What's the funny bit beyond the absurdity of just running up to someone and punching them.
