of course, not even close. But there are substantially more criminals as a percentage of the black population than of the white population in the United States. That's not a subjective comment, it's factual and statistically relevant when explaining the higher number of police interactions with blacks

As to your other assertion: Not that long ago? Was it yesterday? Last month? Last year? Was it in your lifetime? Bad people exist. Not all police are bad. It was not "standard police procedure" to kill black men and rape their women and young girls. Nor would I assume it is standard black man procedure to kill white men, rape their women and young girls but it happens during home invasions. Criminal activity is criminal activity no matter if they wear a fancy blue uniform or not.

WE have established no such thing.
YOU have kept repeating it.

Take a screenshot that shows him facing police before he was shot?
Show a video of him smashing windows?

let's just keep it real here on both sides - there is no doubt he was the guy smashing windows (plus he had a long criminal record) and there is no doubt he was shot in the back by the newbie cops (6-7 times per autopsy report)

According to the autopsy, he was shot mostly in the back. It took him 10 minutes to die. He didn't have a gun, he wasn't facing the officers when they opened fire. Not a righteous shoot in any sense of the word.

This shooting had a bad smell to me right off the bat. But I waited for more information to come in before saying it was a bad shooting. Now with the autopsy results I'm convinced that this was a bad shooting.

Source? Last thing I heard the authorities were still describing him as a suspect. And it would appear things like the tool he purportedly used to break windows has not been found.

We already did this in this thread. Go back and read the thread. The video conclusively shows that he was facing the police. He took a step, turned to the left, and fell to his knees as they were shooting. You are right, most of the shots then hit him in the back. One shot hit him in the front and turned him.

Nope. No shot hit him in the front. One shot hit him in the side from the rear. And that shot may have turned him further. But no shot from the front. The only one that may have hit in the front is the leg wound which happened when he was fully or partially down.

If you watch the helicopter video, he falls down and to his left. His right side/back is towards the police. The only way he could have entrance wounds on the left side of his legs and torso is if those hit him while he was still standing. (Shot 7 & 8 in the image above)
