re: People shot to death by the police (by race) in the United States, 2017-2021 [Chart]

i think a better comparison would be number of arrests by race vs death by race

We already know that the amount of crime committed by race is higher for blacks vs their percent of the population. you cant just go by deaths as a percentage by race and say there is a bias issue.

In fact, it will likely more correlate to socioeconomic groups then race.

a comparison of percent by race in the bottom quintile of income would show a better relationship on whether race is actually involved with the statistics of police shiootings...
