OK, let me ask you a question.

If the police feels too intimidated to get out of their cars and
confront criminals, in black neighborhoods, would that be good or bad
for the residents of those neighborhoods?

Would that save black lives?

The vast majority of victims of firearm related homicide are
criminals. In Boston between 1990 and 1994 some 75% of homicides were
individuals having a criminal record. In Philadelphia, the percentage
of those killed in gun homicides that had prior criminal records was
93% in 1996. In Richmond, Virginia, the risk of gunshot injury is 22
times higher for those males involved with crime.

So, who is committing the crimes? Or perhaps "where are the majority
of the crimes committed"?
