Data Undercuts Myth of ‘Racism’ in Police Killings

Through extensive research, we found 2,699 police shootings across the nation from 2013–2015. That’s far more than the FBI found, since its data is limited to only 1,366 cases voluntarily provided by police departments. The FBI data has other shortcomings, too: It disproportionately includes cases from heavily minority areas, giving a misleading picture of the frequency at which blacks are shot.
Our database keeps track of characteristics of both the suspect and the officer involved in each shooting, local violent crime rates, demographics of the city and police department, and many other factors that help determine what causes police shootings.
Officers kill blacks at a higher rate than their share of the population: 25 percent of the suspects killed were black, 45 percent white, and 16 percent Hispanic. As for where the deaths are occurring, black suspects tend to die in heavily black larger cities with populations averaging over 600,000, while whites are killed in smaller cities with an average population of 250,000.
White suspects were slightly more likely to be holding a firearm than blacks (63 percent to 61 percent). Black and white suspects were both equally likely to be involved in violent crime when they lose their lives at an officer’s hands, though blacks who died were more likely to be involved in drug or property offenses. But police generally have more challenging jobs in cities where blacks are killed. The average city where blacks are killed had a 61 percent higher violent crime rate and 126 percent higher murder rate than where the average white was killed.
After accounting for these and other factors, including averaged cultural differences in police departments, we found that black officers were at least as likely as their white peers to kill black suspects, but that black officers were more likely to kill unarmed blacks than were white officers.

The only solution to this problem is so obvious it doesn't need to be said - but here goes.
We MUST start making Whites commit MORE murders and RESIST ARREST at double the current rate.

Bring up that FACT at one of your weekly corporate diversity, inclusion, and equity brainwashing Zoom meetings, and you’ll be looking for another job before you’ll be able to hit the exit button on a zoomwmeeting.

That would be a great Babylon Bee article.

Look, you can show all the data you wish, but if you aren’t pushing ideas and policy using feelings and emotion then you just aren’t doing it right.

Which also dovetails a bit into the statistic that blacks commit far more homicides every year (approximately half of all homicides every year) than any other racial demographic. The disproportionality of this statistic is something the woke crowd considers "toxic".

That does not matter! The talking point is white supremacy in America in its history, and present day is the cause for why blacks and other minorities commit more crimes!

And as long as feelings take priority over facts, we'll continue to progress toward a world run by mob rule. A world where the instantly triggered and most intensely emotion-driven among us become the leaders and their whims become the dictates regardless of if those whims have any basis in reality.
We've already begun to live in a world mirroring a Weekly World News front page.

How can any “data” related to police killings ignore percentage of violent crimes committed in proportion to population.
100% guaranteed if you are 2-3x as likely to interact with police then that relationship will also show in other data.
Criminals are the problem.

Which is reflected in the fact that about 50% of police that are feloniously killed are killed by black suspects.

And as ShortyRob is fond of pointing out, police density is much higher in urban areas where blacks are concentrated. So just based on that, there is also a higher chance of encounters with police.

I'm pretty sure that most Americans would now agree that Data, especially irrefutable hard data, is Racist and must be condemned because it conflicts with the Truth that is Critical Race Theory.
Americans are pretty freaking Indoctrinated at this point in US History!

6.5% (black males) commit 51% of all homicides since 1980.
13.5% (black population) commit 54% of all violent crime
Are black killed by police at a higher rate than other races...yes.
But Why?
Is it racism or
They’re exponentially committing crime above other races

I don't think those numbers are correct. Where did you get them?
I pull mine from the FBI Universal Crime Reports. While there may be some databases (like the one L.A. linked to) which focus on specific crimes, I'm not aware of any which have as much data on as large a scope of crimes as the UCR. With that, I'm not sure even L.A.'s link would confirm the stance that black males commit 51% of all homicides or blacks commit 54% of all violent crimes.
On average (at least going back to 1995, which is as far back as the online UCRs go) blacks commit ~38%-39% of all violent crimes. (38.94% 1995-2018, I haven't gotten around to updating my sheet for 2019 yet and the numbers for 2020 won't be out for another few weeks or so).

This is a verifiable fact. And you'll get cancelled for stating it publicly. That desire to hide from it or ignore it is why the problems stemming from it will never get fixed.
