Cops Shoot and Kill UNARMED White Male… Where’s the Outrage?

Quote:While I agree that police brutality is more a class issue than a racial issue, I'm not sure what statistical study you are referring to that backs up your claim.


No Google necessary, but just further clarification would be helpful for me to understand the argument you're making that proves the 2.5 times likelihood of a black person getting shot is not correct.

Blacks are killed at a higher rate because they are encountered at a significantly higher rate and in usually more violent encounters. They are actually killed disproportionately less than white people per police encounter. You are more likely to be killed by a cop if you are white and fight a cop than if you are black and fight the same cop.
