The stats show that black people are roughly 2.5 times more likely to be

Such stats have been criticised for not taking account of that the risk
of being killed depends on contact with police; that the probability of
contact with police is increased by criminality; and that criminality is
not uniform across racial groups (for reasons which may of course
include others forms of discrimination - e.g. in education or
employment, but not by police).


Are you saying it's perfectly OK to kill a suspected criminal?

Would that include TV licence evaders?


Only if they are over 75.
