you said most ppl are taken alive, I'm asking how you know that when there's no way to track that data. Does that make sense?

You're misinformed. The book was a false claim. Cops fire only when there is a current threat. Also, the officer was black.

No I'm saying that black people are disproportionately brutalized and made a similar comparison regarding

I'd urge you to consider all factors.Cops are instructed only to shoot when threatened. Certain areas are far more dangerous.

I tweeted the press conference & acknowledged he had a gun Point remains blk ppl disproportionately brutalized by cops.

percentage-wise yes. actual one-to-one correlation, no. more white men killed by police, just as there r more whites in jail

OK. I did say disproportionately. Also if part the % that might be killed, that whole 1-to-1 thing could mean life or death
-
in 2016 so far, 702 people killed by police, only 163 were black, or 23%, so we're only looking at 23%.

it's not 23% it's People. Live's. mothers daughters fathers sons husbands wives. Please respond with a link to that statistic

the white men who are killed by cops are people too. the cops killed by criminals are people too. it's US not them and us.
