Nobody is infiltrating police unions and making them defend the pieces of shit who go around abusing their authority to completely undermind their message - they're doing that plenty fine on their own. Unless you're ignoring how police unions got the okay to cut out people who are smarter than the average cop.
Also, police brutality =/= lethal. So you'll excuse me if I spin my fingers sarcastically at a bunch of Redditors arguing the report and get back to watching Community for the 18th time.
I guess that went completey over your head.
It wasn't about equating lethal force to whatever the oppositie of "peaceful protest" is. It's about the level of attention that is deserved, and the narratives that often surround statistical debates. Given the proper audience, you can frame them in almost anyway that you'd like.
