he looks white, i wouldnt even say he was a minority if i saw him in the street, but then again i dont see skin colour because im a good person.

A cop has never killed a white person. yeah right. I dont now of any case, but in history of course it has happened. in fact if i bother to search i would undoubtably find a case from this year alone.

BIB does give out a stronger case in favour of the victims, fingers crossed that something gets done to the Officer.

Someone is most likely to be killed by a police officer in America if they are of a minority race

I think policemen in America should fully pay the consequence of using their gun inappropriately. Dont they have tasers and spray etc? (I genuinely dont know the answer to that question) They should have other weapons. Shouldnt be gun or nothing.

I agree. Firing their gun at someone should be absolutely a last resort. I think maybe it's a training issue

When it says backed over an officer, was the officer in the police car, or in fear of his life?
Either way, although it would be frightening, it's harsh to imagine being shot dead for it.

Lol like twice as many whites get killed by cops as blacks.It just doesn't get the national outrage as it doesn't fit the racist cop agenda in the media.

I do agree with this though.However it takes like a second or two for a crim to shoot you.You can understand why the cops are nervous.

Would a taser not temporarily disable a guy with a gun? Like entirely? I'm not saying American cops should never use guns, its America, everyone and their dog has a spare rifle. I just don't know why its the weapon of choice, especially as they wear their bullet proof vests... theres been a few hundred too many innocent deaths, you'd think they'd switch it up a bit.

White people are 63% of the USA
Black people are 12% of the USA
2:1 white to black deaths is a horrifyingly startling ratio.

You could argue that anyone in a stolen car is a potential hit and run.

Or you could argue a police officer deciding to chase could potential kill a pedestrian

I'm not sure if tasers would be a good idea against a guy with a gun.Can't they cause involuntary muscle spasms etc?I'm not sure.

Another startling ratio is more than 38% of murders committed by that 12%.Up until 2008 it was 52%!
No wonder that 12% is getting into alot of violent confrontations with police.
