Murdering someone is unacceptable no matter the reason, but the reason is not irrelevant.

If people are being systematically murdered because they are part of a specific group, Jews, poc, the disabled etc then it indicates that anyone else in that group is at an increased risk. It is not acceptable for people to be at an increased risk of being murdered so action needs to be taken to decrease the risk.

Currently poc are 2.5 times more likely to be murdered by police.

From a recent Harvard Study, and it refutes your "systematically murdered" claim.

Fryer concluded that the racial bias narrative is demonstrably false when it comes to police-involved shootings.

Police are not more likely to fire on blacks than whites. In fact, blacks are 20% less likely to be fired on.

Blacks and whites involved in police shootings were equally likely to be carrying a weapon.

Blacks are more likely to be treated worse by officers when it comes to physical contact.

The notion that police officers’ accounts are biased and unreliable is largely a myth.

In 2015, for example, 50% of the victims of police shootings were white, while 26% were black. Some have tried to argue that this is evidence of racial bias against blacks because they represent only 15% of the population; however, as Heather Mac Donald points out, blacks account for a disproportionate percentage of major crimes, including 62% of robberies, 57% of murders and 45% of assaults. Another example of de-contextualized data is that showing a higher percent of unarmed blacks who are shot than unarmed whites, but as both Mac Donald and Fryer found, when the details of the cases are included, such statistics turn out to be misleading.

And a cop is 18 times more likely to be killed by a black person than a black person is likely to be killed by a cop.

Funniest show ever.

They.... they made more of this? Like, they with a budget and everything?

OK, I know what I'm doing today.

Made more of SCTV?
Yeah, in the 1980s. The show revolves around the shenanigans of this ultra low-budget channel, 90 minute episodes had a theme with various skits weaving in and out, some of their character & 'shows' repeated in various episodes.

It was like Red Dwarf grade genius of stupidity,,,

2019 Hollywood machete wielder was self defense. Minneapolis was 1st degree murder that a liberal prosecutor lacks the balls to charge. 2009 shooting of man who tried to kill a cop, was self defense.
