Fwiw, killing of unarmed blacks by police has fallen from 40 in 2015 to 9 in 2019

How is this not being talked about more? If you care about this stuff, it’s progress.


Anyhow: important to keep things in perspective. 9 blacks (out of a population of 47 million in America) were killed by police while unarmed.

That number should be zero every single year, regardless of race.

So... are we counting cops who kick in people's doors in the middle of the night serving no knock warrants on wrong houses?

Because facts are BS and from all the white “woke” folks i have seen on the social medias, history shows that too many black men are killed by police and black women are raped by the police.

Not sure where they get this info but it must be true if on the social medias

We should keep burning our neighborhoods until that happens...

Doesn’t fit the liberal narrative.

What I am saying is this


The data clearly shows that we have made enormous progress in only a few years in massively reducing the amount of unarmed deaths


In any other situation, whether it be employment rate, fall in crime, rise in life expectancy, increase in wages, rate of drug use, etc, a 77% improvmsnt would be welcomed

Lots of things are hard to perfect. Not killing people should be a really easy thing to get perfect. Perfection is expected of the public, why not the cops?

That is impossible. Humans are imperfect. Anyone who expects zero is illogical.

I don't have an issue with that. And I'm not attributing intent to you in what I'm about to say, but it's fairly clear that particular graphic was created to show that black people are more of a threat to police than police are to black people. So even if you don't mean it that way, that graphic carries baggage with it.
