I understand that we can only talk bad about white people, and good about black people, but articles like this tend to ignore that because of the current political optics, police tend to only restrain black people that are extremely violent. Police essentially need unsurmountable social proof before they take action. Every other black suspect gets a free pass (see any of the daily looting videos). Meanwhile non-violent white people are restrained at a much higher rate but since they tend to comply there are fewer bad outcomes.

This article leaves out key details: it doesn't say what the distribution of the people arrested is, it only talks of how many died. What does "Assuming constant demographic profiles over the period considered, Black people are 6.4 times more likely to die..." mean? Is the assumption that the distribution of the general population is the same as those arrested? How can you assume that without actual numbers? Also, how is 6.4 times rounded to 7? Articles like this do a disservice because they're more about clickbait by inflaming the passions and dividing people than addressing what is likely a genuine problem in how black offenders are treated.

What’s the disparity between men and women?
