re: Black people are less likely to be shot by cops (research inside)

quote:

---

race-specific violent crime rates strongly related to the race of the citizen shot. The greater number of crimes committed by Whites in a county, the more likely the person shot was White. The greater number of crimes committed by Blacks in a county, the more likely the person shot was Black citizen. And the greater number of crimes committed by Hispanics in a county, the more likely the person shot was Hispanic.
