I wasn't sure what it is you were trying to prove with this? Stats and figs on their own are meanigless often.. here we see that the majority of people shot are not white.. as in the totals added up show more non-whites than whites are shot..
We would need to know too, the proportions.. needless to say there are more whites in America... they are the majority.. so proportionately, how many whites are shot compared to how many non-white per proportional percentage.
e.g. if whites make up 90% of the population.. and 5% of whites are shot... that would give us one figure.. if we then compare.. say the non-white population is say 20% but proportionally these make up 70% of those shot by police that would tell us there's a big problem! PS these numbers are just for illustration

@Adaydreambeliever to put simply when was the last time there was media outrage when a white person was shot by police?

@Adaydreambeliever Whites make up 63.4% of the US population, Hispanics 15.3%, Blacks 13.4%, and Asians 5.9%. The remainder are Native Americans of Hawaiian Islanders or those of mixed race.

@SW-User that's deflection.. it's not about that.. and this really just shows your bias.. You were trying to prove something and your own figures, which you were unable to read intelligently and analytically disproved your point..
Bleating on about media coverage does NOT change the facts.. a disproportional amount of non-whites, and black people are shot by police... and you should know too that for every one of those MAJORITY of non-whites that were shot by the police.. almost none of them got media coverage either
Seriously grow up and stop being a white bigot .. trying to prove you aren't is pointless because everything you say proves you are a racist

@Adaydreambeliever people like you who throw the word racist around just creates racism your contribute to racism. Blacks commit more crimes and are shot less but we are burning down cities I’ve police racism are we going to continue do you think this is worth your numbered time?

@SW-User ignorant and ill-educated to the last there I see! Perhaps you are one of those inbreds who never went to school.. it wouldn't surprise me since you don't seem to know anything about anything much..
Yes, absolutely.. its always worth my time to promote truth and to try to address bigotry and racism.. everyone should..
Done with you now - I can't fix stupid!
