Females make up over 50% of the population while less than 5% of people killed by police. If you want to use your argument then you'd have to say that males are discriminated against far more than any other minority group.

But if you divide by the number of arrests for violent crimes the gender disparity mostly goes away and whites are twice as likely to be shot as blacks.
