I thought this was an interesting fact I learned today. I wonder what these stats are in other cities. Is this type of data readily available online?

Nationally more whites are killed by police than blacks as well.

Considering there are probably a lot more Hispanics than blacks in Houston, I'm not surprised. How about Atlanta, where there are few Hispanics?

True, but a higher percentage of the black population as a whole are shot comparatively. However, I put little weight in that stat as blacks make up a smaller percentage of the overall US population compared to whites and latinos. It's easy to cherry-pick the statistics to paint the story that you want.

Interesting fact, alter.

More whites are killed by police in every state. Over half of all victims are white. Approximately a quarter are black (statistically higher than the representation among the entire population).
ETA - I'm a little bit surprised that more whites are killed in the city of Houston.

I feel like the Breakfast Klub is part of the reason for this stat, but I can't quite connect the dots.

They don't understand facts, only what Obama says.

Blacks also make up 11% of the population while whites make up..what.. 60%? No shite whites are killed more than blacks by cops.

The real discrepancy is with sex (what we used to call gender) LINK

Everybody knows only blacks are killed by cops.
