Repost and Still a complete lie. Police killed 1165 people in the entire US in 2018. 40 times as many people were killed by other people. Stop making false claims against the people who risk their lives to protect the public.

Per capita, you're not correct.

Take this bootlicker garbage somewhere else, any way we can get a ban?

I am not sure you understand “per capita” . The numbers are actual counts nationwide. If you want to measure a subset like race, raw numbers show white people are twice as likely to be killed by police than blacks. As a representation of percentage of race whites are at 50% of killed to 50% of population, but blacks are twice as likely to be killed by police when compared to whites at 26% killed to 13% of population. If you consider that black males represent 7% of the population yet commit 54% of violent crimes the statistic should be 54% to 7% of the population. So per capita, you are almost 8 times more likely to be killed by a cop if you are white instead of black.
