You're better off adjusting for interactions with law enforcement and factoring in crimes committed..

We can all agree that the ratio thing doesnt work. If we scaled the number of blacks killed/population up to the whites killed/population, it would be immensely uneven.

So the question is, why are blacks being killed at a higher rate? That's the debate. The numbers don't lie.

Are blacks more inclined to behave aggressively towards law enforcement officers? The question cannot mathematically still be if it's happening, but why.

But as usual, I'm aware I could be wrong, but a decent answer instead of yelling and insulting and downvotes would help everyone understand more I think.

then divide the white by two, multiply black by five and boom.

Blacks are persecuted by cops more so than any other race.

eta; judging by the down votes, no one caught the sarcasm

Now just raise your kids right so they know that hanging out and night, with guns, in a car with others, doing or dealing drugs will get you face time with a cop. Once this happens, the amount of times a cop has the chance to shoot a person of color will drop dramatically. Or if you can't do that, that is raise your kids right, then at least teach the dumb fricks that fighting a cop will get you shot.

No. It's just easier to assume the system is racist toward black people.

Police need to be better trained and hiring standards need to be higher. Nonlethal force should be the first, second, and third option against an unarmed person.

Look if this is the answer then it's the answer. Just want honest discourse.

No such thing. People don't want the truth, they want to confirm their bias.

I'm not sure why race matters. What matters is the interaction of the cop and alleged criminal. But, then again, who am I kidding? This is the Washington Post.

How is it so easy for white people to deny what they KNOW is true about the abuse and harassment blacks face from cops?

This has been the headline for 40 years?

It's been in every comedy sketch dating back decades? The news... Movies...

Why is it so easy to deflect and deny what you know is the truth? This is a major reason for the split. The complete lack of acknowledgement that this real and very serious.
