Obviously. But that's not my argument.
The argument is that availability bias and media sensationalism makes the problem of "unarmed black man gets shot and killed by white police officer" seem a far bigger problem than it actually is.
- InclinedPlane 9y agoThat sounds like your argument, that somehow other causes of violent death are higher than systematized killings by law enforcement? By what metric are police shootings in America not a huge problem? They are one of the most common forms of homicide by a stranger (representing between 1 in 4 and 1 in 3 of all such killings). Nothing about this should be accepted as normal or unconcerning.
