From your link:
> Our results show that people of color face a higher likelihood of being killed by police than do white men and women, that risk peaks in young adulthood, and that men of color face a nontrivial lifetime risk of being killed by police.
This is a problem. Whether you believe it is due to racial discrimination, societal pressures, or something else, the fact that BIPOC are being killed by police at a higher rate is a problem worth solving.
- trident5000 6y agoDont commit over 50% of the homicides in the country despite being 13% of the population and the stats will go down. Not saying there cannot be underlying problems worth solving but lets not pretend like theres some grand plan for police to kill more black people than other races.

- ThankYouBernard 6y agojesus fuck this place is basically becoming a white supremacist message board
- trident5000 6y agoSorry you have an issue with statistical facts and that equates to "white supremacy" to you. The rest of us are not going to dodge reality because its uncomfortable to discuss.
