Racist Police - Read This If You Want The Real Numbers
In the paragraph below, The Washington Post leads you to believe there is a rash of "police executions" against Black men. Also, "racist police" disproportionately kill black men. And this is considered excessive because only 13% of the population is Black.
They need you to believe there are racist police. And need it as another issue to divide America.
According to The Washington Post:
Black Americans are killed at a much higher rate than White Americans
"Although half of the people shot and killed by police are White, Black Americans are shot at a disproportionate rate. They account for less than 13 percent of the US population, but are killed by police at more than twice the rate of White Americans. Hispanic Americans are also killed by police at a disproportionate rate".
The Washington Post does not want to tell you that only 14 unarmed black people were killed by the "racist police" in 2018. On purpose or by accident.
The Washington Post needs to tell a slanted story to promote cultural change. They want to incite people to help destroy a society.
Facts and statistics are harsh because numbers don't lie. But like anything else, people can manipulate numbers.
If you look closer at the actual statistics, you can make your own informed decision. Regardless if you lean left or right, you'll see how Mainstream Media massages the numbers to support a "racist police" narrative.
These Are The Facts Of Black American's Death By The Hands Of The "Racist Police."
From the leftist USA Today:
"As of the June 22 update, the Washington Post's database of fatal police shootings showed 14 unarmed Black victims and 25 unarmed white victims in 2019".
This statistic is a fact. There is an average of 60 million contacts between the "racist police" and residents per year. In 2019, either by mistake or otherwise, there were 39 unarmed fatal police shootings. This number is minimal relative to the police interactions and the entire population.
A police officer seldom kills an unarmed suspect. The people that want to end, defund, or "reimagine" policing can never mention how rare this is.
This statistic is a fact. In 2019, there were 999 total shooting deaths by police. That means that of the total deaths caused by police in 2019, 960 people killed were armed. Among the weapons, you can include guns, knives, automobiles, and others.

These Are The Facts Of Black Vs. White Crime
According to the FBI:
"For instance, although blacks comprise just 13% of the US population, they accounted for 53% of the murder and non-negligent manslaughter arrests in 2018 (the most recent year for which FBI crime data is available), 54% of all robbery arrests, and 37% of all violent crime arrests. Whites, on the other hand, comprise 76% of the population but made up just 44% of the murder and non-negligent manslaughter, 43% of the robbery, and 59% of the total violent crime arrests".
This statement is a fact. Of all the crimes committed, most crimes are disproportionately committed by Blacks.
Black people are more exposed to a life-ending incident while committing the crime. This reality is based on percentages and not "racist police."
For a legitimate comparison, it should be the percentage of a race to total deaths by police. Not Blacks to Whites to make a political statement. Unfortunately, The Washington Post omits the 33% of Hispanics and Others that constitute 100%.
This statistic is a fact. Of the total 960 weaponized deaths by police in 2018, Blacks account for 21.8%. Whites account for 41.6%. Hispanics account for 15.4%.
For a perspective on how rare police killings based on population is, the following:
The total number of killings by police in 2020 - 1021. This figure is for the entire country. This amount is very close to the non-police-involved killings in Chicago for 2020 - 769. As of this writing, Chicago homicides are also up 34% in 2021, a new record.
The killings in Chicago, at this rate, will pass the total number of police-related killings for the US in 2021.

"Racist Police" Just A Piece Of The Communist Puzzle
We do not need to declare that even one death is unacceptable because it is. We also do not need to point out the cultural issues that account for most of the killings by police, which also inappropriate. But we need to ask whether the violence and deaths are a policing problem or a societal problem.
It is a societal problem and not police-related.
Racist police indiscriminately killing Black men is a contrived problem. This dilemma is fabricated by a political class that needs division and mayhem to advance one-party rule.
As with all the issues Americans ingest each day, most are not naturally occurring. Many of these counterfeit concerns are generated to take down one culture and political system for another.
With our recent "pandemic" (still a survival rate of 99.8%), you can make an argument.
The leftists/communists were hoping for or abetting a higher death rate. Like the "racist police" argument, they need more destruction to push their agenda. They capitalized on their ability to direct an entire population to lockdown. At the same time, they destroy great swaths of the very economy they want to change.
We also need to question why the southern border was "opened up." The invitation was from a sitting President. And at the expense of thousands of innocent lives ended or damaged during their trek to the border.
Opening the border is for demographic change. To have a one-party rule through a voting process, you need sympathetic voters.
And then we have the entire "climate change" fiasco. Elected politicians are attempting to destroy the largest economy in history for a 111 parts per million reduction of CO2. For the informed, CO2 accounts for only .036% of the entire atmosphere.
You can easily add to these issues the rising unemployment and inflation problems. Like all other issues from the leftists running our country, they are aided or manufactured to take this country down.
Unfortunately, almost every aspect of our lives is now affected. The problems are all arranged to destroy one political system and install another. And they continue this with even more politicization and division.
The recent push to defund, reimagine, and blame the police is another fabricated problem. It is a lie.
