Op-Ed: It’s time to start showing the videos of police shooting white people

From the Washington Examiner.
Obviously I agree since I think the modern media are minions of Satan, but I'd like to hear your thoughs.

Despite the shootings that receive widespread media coverage, white people make up the demographic with the highest fatalities from police shootings — nearly twice as many white people are killed by police each year. It's long past due for videos of fatal police shootings of white people to be shown with the same frequency and vigor as fatal police shootings of black people.
This phenomenon is largely fueled by the media and is problematic. It creates the false perception that it is primarily black men who are shot and killed by the police. This leads many to believe falsely that the country's police officers are racists who target and hunt black men. This allows left-wing politicians to promote falsehoods and indoctrinate the masses with claims that the country's criminal justice system is systemically racist — even though it's not true. They hide the facts so they can advance an agenda.
Consider the facts. Black men comprise 6-7% of the country's population but account for over 50% of homicides, 29.1% of all rapes, over 50% of all robberies, and 33% of assaults. This leads to disproportionate interactions with police and, subsequently, shootings. It's not racism causing these shooting discrepancies. It's the excessive amount of crime committed by black men.
Many on the Left like to cite the oft-repeated statistic that black men are three times more likely to be involved in fatal police shootings than white people. They use this to justify not reporting on white people shot by police. Yet what is constantly omitted in this claim is that, based on their proportion of the country's population, black men commit crime, specifically violent crime, at a significantly higher rate than white people.
By now, we all know the names of many black people killed by the police. You are probably familiar with Michael Brown, George Floyd, Eric Garner, and Breonna Taylor. But if I were to ask you to name just one white person who was fatally shot by police, it is a safe assumption you couldn't. The stories of Tony Timpa, Daniel Shaver, and the many other white people killed by police officers remain largely unknown.

White [people are more likely to be shot by police.
You cant use the whole population. Unless you think everyone is criminals.
People go their who lives without having some interaction with an officer for breaking the law. They obviously wouldnt even have had a chance to get shot by a cop.

100% of all people that have ever asked me for a few bucks to help them get home because their car broke down. One guy has been asking me the same question for like a decade.

That drunk kid getting murdered in the hotel in Reno was a thing of Nightmares.

That the one where they had him on his knees in the hallway and flat out murdered him?

Start with Tony Timpa and ask if it looks familiar...
Why were they giving him an injection?

Any realistic and honest discussion on race in the public forum would be great.

This is the part of the equation that leftists never, ever, ever want to address.

If you really want to see what a joke BLM etc are go and look at the actual interracial violent crime statistics in this country. It's insane how disproportionate they are with one lone group committing all the violent crime against the others far more than the reverse. Media will never report this. I did see Geraldo Rivera of all people bring this up once on Fox News and he was shutdown immediately by Neil Cavuto
Geraldo also has called out all the crime that blacks are committing against Asians in places like NYC, SF, LA, etc. I haven't seen anyone else touch this and report the actual truth.

Then you will have an ultra black lives movement and they will be protesting that white people got better free stuff. They didn't know that the family dollar they looted didn't have the same quality electronics as Walmart. And then Blame the government for not putting out pamphlets on the most profitable stores to loot based on the geographic area around their house

We don't exactly have a gun or violent crime problem.

I have dumbfounded many of my liberal friends when I asked them: More unarmed white people are shot by police. The media never covers those stories...Why?
That video of him being killed is one of the worst things I've ever seen. And those shitbag cops got away with it too.

Look up and read the FBI stats from every year...Unarmed Whites are more likely to be killed by Law Enforcement than any other race...
