At the same time that you blame the victims of police violence, you fail to make a convincing argument that connects the dots between "minorities exist in a country" and "minorities cause police to shoot people." Throwing together an observation (e.g., one society is more homogeneous than another) with another observation ("the USA is a more violent place than Iceland") really is a Swiss cheese argument. What a whopper.
The great part about Iceland (and Scandinavia, and Western Europe, etc.) is that they are able to let you live there, or politely suggest that you leave, without managing to kill you or metaphorically neuter you in the process (a la "visible minorities" in the United States, to use a Canadian term).
