Well, better sane people have guns to protect themselves than only criminals have guns. I mean, what are we supposed to do? The same people that push gun control are the ones who also say cops are racist empowered idiots who should all be in jail. Welp, guess you might as well just let the guy murder you.

The fact-checking website PolitiFact concluded in August 2014 that police kill more whites than blacks after the claim was made by conservative commentator Michael Medved. PolitiFact cited data from the Centers for Disease Control on fatal injuries by “legal intervention” from 1999 to 2011.

“Over the span of more than a decade, 2,151 whites died by being shot by police compared to 1,130 blacks. In that respect, Medved is correct,” said PolitiFact.

And the ratio of whites to blacks is...?

Try reading the stat again... 2,151 whites and 1130 blacks. About 2:1

America: 77.7% white 13.2% black

I'll let you crunch the numbers yourself.

And I hear the places with the highest chance for a shark attack are along the coast in the shallow water... and no shit... that's where all of the people are.

Crunched. "Non-Hispanic Whites total about 197,816,000, or 62.6% of the U.S. population." -- ya gotta read the second line of Wikipedia ... cop shootings of whites total 65.5%.

Oh darn... a few percent off. I guess that completely destroys my argument...

Maybe my shark attack analogy didn't click. More whites = more white deaths. Crunch the headcount/total population of each race in the country with the number of deaths in their race... and get back to me... or just keep beating around the bush.

Whites: 0.0000101721% chance of being shot.
Blacks: 0.00003260412% chance of being shot.

Blacks make up a significantly smaller slice of the pie chart that is America.

I'm sure there are other ways to crunch the numbers as well.

The problem with using shooting numbers and simply dividing by population is it ignores so many factors it's laughable. Wow. The assumptions. Everyone within a race has an equal chance of being shot? Really? Why don't we just look at actual shootings instead of doing mental calisthenics and contortions to make the actual numbers fit our preferred narrative? More whites are shot by police each year than blacks ... by about a 2:1 margin. Your "shark analogy" clicked it's just you didn't understand it yourself. The best way to get attacked by a shark is to be in the water. It doesn't matter what race you are. The best way to get shot by a cop is to break the law, fight with the cop, try to take his gun, charge at him, etc. It doesn't matter what race you are. Do those things and your chances of eating lead increases.

But this is the Internet and I'm sure you'll need to get in the last word. I suppose the shooting percentages should *exactly* match the population ... good luck with that.

Young black men are 7 times more likely to die by police gunfire than their white counterparts ... but this fact means nothing to a police brutality and racial discrimination apologist.

A police brutality and racial discrimination apologist. Wow. Pointing out police brutality against whites and I get labeled like that. Only on the Internet are people this stupid.

You calling out someone else for making numbers fit their narrative... is sweet, sweet, hilarious irony to say the least. That's exactly the point I was making with the 'shark attack statistics' analogy.

Oy.

A white supremacist shoots up a church and gets a burger because he's hungry. A black woman is arrested for a failure to signal and ends up dead in a jail cell. Or perhaps you've missed all of the other recent atrocities by police in the news.

Yeah well, sometimes you just gotta let idiots be idiots. Still can't refute the 2:1 fact. Actual shootings are what matter ... at least to the people being shot.
