There's a reason people don't trust the legal system. It isn't about laws being laws as this one was, it is about laws not being for everyone.
If as Socio flabergastically asked is there any reason police can kill black men? Sure, as long as they kill everyone equally. And they don't, and until they do then the answer is that standard is one they set and must be fair in order to be accepted.
Those stats are out there, look them up and educate yourself instead of spewing drivel. Black males are killed at a disproportionate rate in relation to their percentage of the public, but there are more white males killed overall. Did you know black police officers kill black males at a higher rate than white police officers? When a black male is killed by police, do you ever factor in that person's behavior, or do you just go with the old "he was killed because he was black" narrative? I'm not saying there are no bad police shootings, there are, and those cops should go to jail. But they are rare.
