C, adding his typical unsupported, ignorant bullshit.
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/201 ... -black-men"...21% of deadly incidents began with a complaint to police alleging domestic violence or some other domestic disturbance. About 16% arose from officers attempting to arrest a wanted person, execute a warrant or apprehend a fugitive. Another 14% of killings followed an attempted traffic or street stop,
13% came after someone committed a violent crime and 7% after a non-violent crime."
Soooo, 100-13 = 87% of fatal police shooting/murders of black men did not involve someone involved in a violent crime.
(Don't get me wrong--our trigger happy US cops are more likely to kill you for no good reason no matter what your color is in this country compared to pretty much any other industrial country, but a much higher ration are blacks and other people of color than whites. Racism is definitely part of the equation, even if it's not the whole thing.)
http://www.washingtonpost.com/sf/invest ... arly-1000/Nearly a thousand times this year, an American police officer has shot and killed a civilian.
Although black men make up only 6 percent of the U.S. population, they account for 40 percent of the unarmed men shot to death by police this year
a hugely disproportionate number — 3 in 5 — of those killed after exhibiting less threatening behavior were black or Hispanic.
