Cops are a threat to black lives?

Black Lives Matter movement is calling to defund local police. They (along with their allies) over and over say that black lives are being systematically taken by racist police officers. This is a testable hypothesis. We can look at the people killed by police in the last year (2019) and see what the actual data says. 2019 10 Million: Estimated Total Arrest Made 1004 : Total people shot and killed by police 236: Black people were killed by police 10: unarmed black people killed by police. By these numbers alone we should be able to conclude we that this narrative is not true, but it gets worse. Not only have studies shown that white officers are no more likely to shoot blacks than black officers, but Tucker Carlson recently reviewed on air each of the 10 cases of unarmed black people shot by cops. Read the stories below and you tell me where the evidence is to support the claim that black lives are systemically more at risk from police officers than from the black criminals who kill 2-3 Thousand innocent black people each year and who the cops are putting their lives on the line to stop. PS: 89 Cops were killed defending the public (including black people) in 2019. -------------------

1 The first was a man called Channara Pheap. He was killed by a Knoxville police officer called Dylan Williams. According to Williams, Pheap attacked him, choked him and then used a taser on him -- the suspect on the police officer before the officer shot him. Five eyewitnesses corroborated the officer's claim, and the officer was not charged.

2 The second case concerns a man called Marcus McVeigh. He was by any description a career criminal from San Angelo, Texas. He had been convicted of aggravated assault, assault on a public servant and organized criminal activity. At the time he was killed, he was wanted on drug dealing charges. The Texas State trooper pulled him over. McVeigh fled in his car, then he fled on foot into the woods. There he fought with the trooper and was shot and killed. The officer was not charged in that case.

3 Marzua Scott assaulted a shop employee. When a female police officer arrived and ordered the suspect toward her car, he instead charged her and knocked her to the ground. At that point, she shot and killed him. The entire incident was caught on body camera. The officer was not charged.

7 Atatiana Jefferson was shot by a Fort Worth deputy called Aaron Dean. A neighbor had called a non-emergency number after seeing Jefferson's door open, thinking something might be wrong. Police arrived. Jefferson saw them approach from a window and was holding a gun at the time.According to body camera footage, the officer shot Jefferson within seconds. That officer has been charged with homicide.

8 Christopher Whitfield was shot and killed in a place called Ethel, La. He had robbed a gas station. Deputy Glenn Sims said his gun discharged accidentally while grappling with Whitfield. Sims, who is black himself, was not charged in that killing.

9 Kevin Mason was shot by police during a multi-hour standoff. Well, Mason turned out not to have a gun. Mason claimed to have a gun, claimed to be armed and vowed to kill police with it. They believed him. Mason had been in a shootout with police years before.

10 And finally, the tenth case concerns Gregory Griffin. He was shot during a car chase. An officer called Giovanni Crespo claimed he saw someone pointing a gun at him. Later, a gun was in fact found inside the vehicle, and yet Officer Crespo was charged anyway with aggravated manslaughter. --------- So if Black Lives Matter.... You better support the police, the people on the front lines saving black lives.
