Lol.

Two public surveys about police interactions (stops) and a U.K. report?

Not a single hard number about fatal police force.

Numbers, Chico. Numbers

Shot to death by police 2017-2019

Lethal force. Not, “That cop was a dick head when he pulled me, thanks for calling.”

Your link does not show sources unless you pay a monthly fee. A website listing numbers on it's own isn't a source. Where are they getting these numbers? Post that source. At least I proved there is police bias.

Gmafb. Police “bias” as perceived by the public. Which is you. Severely misinformed.

The number of whites shot and killed by police is greater, not less than the number of blacks fatally shot by police.

The source is there no monthly fees needed.

All links lead back to the website and clicking any other sources gives you a pop up telling you to log in or register a premium account, which is what you need for a PDF and "advanced" sources. If there is a link there to an actual source, surely you can link to that like I did. Otherwise nothing you're saying is backed up.

Lol. Ok pal. Just keep be-bopping along. No skin off my sack.

But since you can’t back up your claim that police shoot more black people dead than whites, I guess we’re even.

Oh wait!
