The problem is not really the number of killings, instead it is the number of killings of unarmed men who are not a threat, or the killings that are never investigated properly by the authorities.
The only reason white people do not raise as big of a fuss is because they have not been the victims of systemic racism in the criminal justice system. With all the proof we have of racial profiling and racial inequality in the criminal justice system it is impossible to convince the African American population that they are being treated fairly by police.
You also have to factor in resisting arrest. That is a huge factor in many cases. Bad cops aren’t bad only to blacks and not Asians or Hispanics or whites. I don’t buy that bs that 99% of cops are good cops either. There’s no line of work that 99% are good people. I’m done with the subject going forward. I’ll just say that you can’t be pc if you want to fix this problem. There are obviously racist cops out there but I doubt that they’re only racist to black people. Some white cops are racist to Asians or some black cops are racist to whites. Racism will unfortunately never die. Addressing any problem means honestly talking about every aspect and that’s why it will not get better. The pc parts are just off limits and I’m surprised that I haven’t been called a racist yet just for seeing all sides of this ugly equation. Anyways, I’m out of the conversation. Peace is the answer...
