"Since the start of 2015, 4,728 people across the country have died in police shootings and approximately half - 2,385 - were white. Out of the remainder, 1,252 were black, 877 were Hispanic and 214 were from other racial groups. The data looks different as a share of the population, however. Black Americans account for less than 13 percent of the population but they are shot and killed by the police at a rate that's over twice as high as for white Americans."

Ya NOBODY talking about this one, eh? funny huh?
i still dont know the definition of white and black, but whites get shot and killed more by police. sssshhhh. dont tell the race baiters
For the sake of argument,
blacks only make up 13% of the population whereas whites make up 76%. So those numbers alone say nothing. Now just looking at that chart, blacks are killed about half as much as whites give or take. Which means the population of white people would need to be at 26% for it to be equal percentage of killings per population. But whites are at a whopping 76%, making black people at least 3x more likely to be killed than a white person. Maybe more, can't be arsed to math it out.

you can play with the numbers all you want.

True, yet you're using a strawman argument.

You call it playing with the numbers, I call it using logic. Death in a much smaller populace delivers more impact. Even your quote states what I said - "Black Americans account for less than 13 percent of the population but they are shot and killed by the police at a rate that's over twice as high as for white Americans."
I don't get why people get emotional over politics.

did you ever think that black people commit more violent crimes per capita and thus put themselves in danger of getting killed by the cops more. sheesh, got to spoon feed you pups.
