Just not stupid protests, such as the ones fabricated by BLM types, that ignore real, verified data about police interaction with American Blacks, that indicate essentially, statistically, NO excessive shootings/killings of black citizens by white (or other) police officers.

Is the highly left-leaning New York Times good enough for you? How about Harvard U.?

Reality check: Study finds NO RACIAL BIAS in Police Shootings

quote:

“On the most extreme use of force — officer-involved shootings — we find no racial differences in either the raw data or when contextual factors are taken into account,” said Harvard economics professor Roland G. Fryer Jr. in the abstract of the July 2016 paper.

Mr. Fryer, who is black, told The New York Times that the finding of no racial discrimination in police shootings was “the most surprising result of my career.”

I think i have to agree with dude. You don't seem to have actually read the article, it is talking about and poking holes in the quotes and studies you are citing.

Not making a political point on the matter, more of a either you're either not good at reading or don't care about sharing misleading information

A wider body of research suggests Fryer’s study is not indicative of a wider picture. Examples include: A Guardian investigation found that in 2015, 7.3 per million black people in the US were killed by the police compared to 2.9 per million white people. In 2015, the Bureau of Justice Statistics found that the government has been undercounting the number of people killed by police and that the true number is probably twice as high. In November 2015, Jeremy West looked at automobile crash investigations by a state police department and found a pattern of racial bias in police investigations. In Chicago, black individuals are much less likely than white individuals to make successful complaints about police behavior according to the Invisible Institute. In their database, black people filed 61% of the complaints, and white people filed 21% of the complaints; but of the complaints that were upheld, only 25% were filed by black people, while 58% were filed by white people. In total, the database found 56,361 allegations of misconduct made against the Chicago police department from 2002 to 2008 and 2011 to 2015.
