Further, if you want to objectively understand criminality and the nature of crime as it pertains to demographics (genetics/race/sex/age), you have to focus on real-world examples. Major US cities such as New York City are good case examples:

That's just scraping the surface. The same behaviors extrapolate to unarmed events: those who fight police vs. those who don't.

That's a big chart, for not much statistical significance. The n is too low to make conclusions. That "White: 12.5%" slice is two white people killed by police.

That "Black 79%" is 15 people firing on police. If those incidents are independent, 1 standard deviation is probably about √n = 3.87 which is a little over 20%.
