    This is mainly a basketball site, and you are going by the total numbers instead of the rate?

    Black Americans are killed at a much higher rate than White Americans

    Although a little under half of the people shot and killed by police are White, Black Americans are shot at a disproportionate rate. They account for less than 13 percent of the U.S. population, but are killed by police at more than twice the rate of White Americans. Hispanic Americans are also killed by police at a disproportionate rate.

    Black Americans are 2.5 times as likely as white Americans to be shot and killed by police officers.

    Conclusion from report on racial bias and use of lethal forces by police against Black people, from conservative Manhattan Institute:

    https://www.manhattan-institute.org/verbruggen-fatal-police-shootings


    Conclusion
    We know far more about the use of lethal force by police than we did half a decade ago. Those expecting these data to prove the existence of extreme, flagrant racial bias are bound to be disappointed because that is not what the numbers show. The popular narrative of homicidally racist cops everywhere is false.

    At the same time, much is left to learn about fatal police shootings, including whether there is a more subtle role for racial bias nationally and why racial disproportions in lethal force vary so much from place to place. More than likely, at least some places in the U.S. have very real problems in this regard, and we should want to know where they are.

    Perhaps we will, once another half-decade or so has passed.


    This pretty much matches my understanding. Empirical data is lacking in showing clear evidence of racial bias when it comes to lethal force against Black versus White suspects by police officers. That doesn’t mean such racial bias doesn’t exist. The data is simply inconclusive. If there such bias (and I believe there is to some degree) it’s likely far more subtle and non-uniform than activist groups (like BLM) are suggesting.

    I believe human behavior is explained in economic theory. Wants and needs and what can be had. That includes charity or seemingly non economic behavior

    Edit: economics is a natural science. It's taught in liberal arts colleges because it's pure

    now let that have been somebody black…

    Police shootings of unarmed Black people in the United States were three times higher than that of white people between 2015 and the beginning of 2020, according to a new report from researchers at the University of Pennsylvania’s Perelman School of Medicine, Yale University, and Drexel University. The study shows that, despite a more widespread use of body cameras and increased media attention of police brutality over the past five years, violent encounters with police continue to represent significant causes of injury and death in the United States, particularly for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC).

    The study, published in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health today examines data provided by the Washington Post
    on fatal police shootings in the United States from 2015 to the first quarter of 2020. The database draws its data from local news reports, independent databases, and its own reporting. It includes the race, age, and sex of every person killed by on-duty police officers, as well as details about whether the victims were armed or unarmed.

    OP loves when a black person gets shot…they got u trained well

    your self loathing is so pathetic

    keep up the performance

    Capitalism succeeds because it's based in economic theory. Communism fails because it's not

    Please don't tell me we aren't pure Capitalists I get it but our social utility is still economic in terms of building everyone strengthens communities

    You're self loathing because you lie to yourself. The Black murder rate is 10 times the rest of the country

    I'm the only person who will tell you that.im proud of that.

    You too ignorant to realize you need to know our problems caused by us if you all out all the racism in terms of what holds back progress

    The 50s and 60s are over. The federal government legally addresses racism in terms of what it can. We have to move forward. The past is done. The world spins forward

    Reminds me of middle class Mexican-Americans who won't go to "that HEB" because "it's full of Mexicans".

    The person who has impacted me the most in my personal and professional life is Steve Harvey… honest to goodness. He suggested every married couple having 4 accts: a checking, a savings, a personal acct for one spouse and one for the other… money squabbles instantly crushed..

    his ten dollar step to riches led my lawn business generating more money than ever. Now I’m earning $100k net profit with less than 4 employees…This man is admirable, didn’t use excuses, was homeless at one point and simply makes sense. He’s black but that doesn’t matter, I love everything about him. Very admirable! We need more Steve Harvey’s no doubt. A great example regardless of color

    It is an insult to your parents to claim we're facing what they faced. It's beyond ignorant, disrespectful, etc, etc

    We are the ones holding on to the misery. Misery is our politics. Literally our politics. Give us this because we are still miserable

    So you are saying the median white family having 1000% more wealth than the median black family is due to white families being 10x more effective in accumulating wealth based on merit.
