Don't see the reason for posting amount of arrest. 99% of cops are good people and voluntarily put their lives on the line. So most arrest shouldn't end in death.
Invalidated stats? By whom? I'm referencing the WaPo article, which found the vast majority of reported killed had weapons, were resisting arrest, or mentally unstable/high on drugs.
When you have 10M arrests, and some 100 or so unarmed blacks killed, 60% at the hands of white cops, is evidence of racism rather than mistakes....well, let's just say the numbers don't support a statistically significant conclusion there. That's the reason for showing the number of arrests, that 99.99% or arrests end without killing the subject....which is better than 5-sigma (or really damn good).
