..it's not really the volume of those killed by the police though, Caitlin...whether there have been more white people than black people..?...it's whether those white people were 'justifiably' killed and whether there was no alternative because of the threat they were being at the time ...it seems that sadly too often, black people are killed by the police when there have been alternatives to loss of life in those situations...so that would be the comparison to make...
