One source, in a report called "Operation Ghetto Storm" says that in 2012 that of the 739 "Justified" shootings shown above from 2012,313 of them were Black. 44% of them or 136, were unarmed. 27% of them (83) were claimed by Law Enforcement to have Gun at the time of the shooting, but that could not be later confirmed or the "gun" was in fact, a toy or other non-lethal object. 20% of them (62) were confirmed to have been armed with a gun, knife or cutting tool.

Im with ya Brother!~ I say that the Police should be allowed to go into any Majority black neighborhoods because of them being mean ole racist who go out their way to put the black man down. Of course the Blackman is pretty damn good at putting their own down. So you policemen out there ,no more going into black majority hoods. Let the herd thin itself.

Were they running? Were they fighting the cops? Did they use their cars as weapons perhaps? Did they threaten cops? Etc etc
And I'm not saying doing those things means they should have been shot and killed. I'm just saying there could have been things happening that may have caused the cops to shoot the person. They don't just go around hunting people, regardless of color. They actually put their lives on the line going in to the hood to try and help people that hate them, when those same people that hate them get in deep shite and need help.
I am not defending cops, they're not my favorite people. I've been arrested before when I was younger with something revolving around drugs. When they arrested me they had 11 cops cars with a few of those that had 2 cops in them (there was like 14 or 15 cops). When they came at me, their guns were drawn and I was being given commands from them on what to do. I did exactly as they said, exactly, and nothing happened to me or them.
All I'm saying is a lot of times, there's more to the stories.
