How many blacks were killed by police last year versus how many blacks were killed in black on black crime? I’ll hang up and listen.

Edit: the admins have anchored this thread. So much for free and open debate on the Rant.

more unarmed whites are killed by police than unarmed blacks. That's a statistical fact.

And "unarmed" doesn't necessarily mean innocent or not dangerous. Many unarmed folks may be committing a crime and acting very aggressive and dangerous, and police don't know they're unarmed until afterwards.

And the total number of unarmed whites and blacks killed by police each year is tiny - two or three dozen - in a country of 330 million with probably 10s of millions of police interactions.

But let's not let facts get in the way of a good ole protest narrative.
