But who is more likely to get a knee to the throat?

You’re thinking emotionally.

The Black community is simply more violent, and crime rates are higher in the black community, thus they are more likely to interact with police.

That’s why they have more negative experiences.

Case in point, the white man who died in Dallas last year, in similar circumstances.

If you look at crime stats, Whites and Hispanics are disproportionately less violent. And Blacks more so.

White southerners are more violent than whites nationally though.
