It's pathetic what some whites will do in order to deny their problems and to deny their racism.
People miss the fact that the police shoot and kill a lot of white people. The media, ever eager to turn every police shooting of a black person into a national story even when the shooting is completely justified, just don't care when whites are killed by the cops.
In fact, more unarmed whites (26 in 2020) than unarmed blacks (18 in 2020) are shot by police in any given year. Liberal Democrats have created a false narrative that black people are in constant, imminent danger of being killed by police, but the reality is more complicated. And the media, eager to stoke racial tensions, simply ignore stories like those of Timpa, because even if they point to something very wrong about how policing is done, they don't advance the preferred racial narrative.
Yes, a higher percentage of blacks are victims of police shootings given their share of the U.S. population (13%). But this is, at least in part, a function of their disproportionate involvement in crime and in violent crime in particular. The FBI reports that 39% of murders with known offenders are committed by blacks. If police confrontations are disproportionately with blacks, you would expect disproportionate results.

Notice the racism here. The writer doesn't address the possibility that white shootings could be justifiable and while whites commit 60 percent of the violent crime, per capita is used here to justify the disproportionate rate of blacks being shot by police.
So where is all the hype about rates and shit? Huh? Here we see classic right wing victimhood.
36.4 percent is less than 59.1. 6 out of every 10 violent crimes are committed by whites. That's why more whites get shot by police. Instead of addressing that, whites want to pretend that the smaller number is the problem.
Most of the people killed by the police are white

It’s a harrowing video. A man, scared for his life, saying he can’t breathe while police laid him down, put him in handcuffs, restrained his legs, and knelt on his body for over 10 minutes. The video shows him crying “help me” and “you’re gonna kill me” while begging for his life to police officers
