No, these particular facts are irrelevant to each other as there's no comparison between civilians living everyday lives and cops whose job frequently and intentionally places them in dangerous situations.

"cops constantly hunting down blacks for no reason"

Ok, first off, I bet all 10 of the unarmed that were shot by police also committed a crime... So right off the bat you are wrong, the cops went looking for a criminal...I also bet if you looked at those 10 cases, most of them involved the criminal resisting in some fashion...

Secondly, there are 700K cops in this country.. so 10 out of 700,000 shoot an unarmed man (with most of them being justified or we would have heard about them), but your ignorance wants you to group them together?? You make it sound like most of them head out on a Saturday night go down the streets looking for blacks to shoot..

Tucker is the only person left in the mainstream media that I can tolerate.
Is Tucker the only real journalist/reporter left on TV news?
He never was a journalist.
HE's an entertainer. And you like him because he says what you want to hear.

Nothing wrong with that -- but he's not in news, he's not a journalist and you agree with him.

And how do these statistics prove, demonstrate or even remotely suggest systemic racism and abuse of black citizens by police?

Which of the facts from the police data compiled by WaPo do you disagree with?

They don't.
The data from law enforcement agencies does not show any systemic racism.
But what it does show is that blacks commit a disproportionately very high amount of crime, extremely high amounts.

Yes, we all know that, even the poster I was asking. I do enjoy seeing how they twist themselves up though.

We need to stop using this term unarmed. Let me go back to my early 20's when I could move 12 ton of coal in one hour with a shovel. I'll punch you in the face and then tell me I'm unarmed.
