I used data from a the Bureau of Justice website from 2015.

Also, that's police initiated contact. Meaning, the cops weren't called by said person.

Thanks.  Obviously I can read, I just can't always read backwards in a 5 way discussion.
What you're saying makes sense, but it's not persuasive.  
It's very hard to hide deaths.  If the stats say 104 people  got killed by police, it probably was exactly 104. And of those 104, many were probably justified, due to the suspect having a weapon and credibly threatening an officer's life.
But it is certainly much easier to hide use of force that does not result in death. In fact, even if you could document the use of force, I don't think you will ever reliably be able to categorize those massive amounts of incidents into "excessive" and "not excessive."
And that's what generates the mistrust between minorities and the police. That's why minorities will identify with this victim, George Floyd, no matter how many statistics you throw at them about how this is an aberration. It's the mistrust that I'm concerned about, because that mistrust is one of many misunderstandings between black people and white people in this country in general.
