15 unarmed black people shot by the police.
21 unarmed white people.
More unarmed white people are shot by police every year, but we haven’t heard about a single one.
And considering black people commit about 40% of all violent crime, it’s not surprising they’d make up a large share of those shot and killed by police.
50 total unarmed people have been killed by police. 15/50 = 30%.
So black people are actually under-represented as they make up 30% of unarmed police shootings but 40% of violent crime. White people are over represented. Hispanics and Asians follow the violent crime trend almost identically.

Came across this one for Louisiana and saw "white man".
But...
I'd say their stats are unreliable.

Marquinton T. Brooks, a 22-year-old white man armed with a gun, was shot on Oct. 2, 2017, in West Ouachita, La.

I’ve gone through many in the past. That’s the first one that I’ve seen that was not accurate.

If Bruce Gender can win Olympic gold as a man in the 1970's and become ESPN's "Woman of the Year" after the turn of the century, why not this long haired girly man be white?
If Rachel Dolezal can be born white and become black while also achieving a high rank in the NAACP, why not the reverse?

Do you even adjust for population demographics, bro?
