Yet, whites are 76% and blacks 13% of the US population, which indicates that blacks are several times more likely to be killed by police on a per-capita basis than whites. |

No that is incorrect, they are not more likely. That statistic only skews the appearance that blacks are more likely to be killed, which they are not. Every case is a new case so the likelihood starts over. Blacks may be more likely to be confronted by police, not killed. |

I don't have time to look it up, but I'd be pretty certain the conditional probability of being seriously injured or killed given being stopped is higher for those of color. -- |

Fools come in all colors. IMHO if you are in contact with a police officer, OBEY the officer to keep things civil. HE has the authority which you do not. If he was in the wrong let your attorney take care of the problem and live another day. Still, no one should loose their life when in custody of a police officer unless you some how pose an immediate threat to that offices life. There are bad apples in EVERY group. |
