Which isn't in question, and isn't pertinent
More black people are ACTUALLY killed as a proportion of population than white people, which so clearly illustrates why there is a problem that I'm unsure of why you can't see it.
If there were just ten black people in the US, and three black people were killed by police, would the relatively low number of black people killed be a valid refutation of the idea that black people were disproportionately killed? Of course not.

You do realise that you're just reiterating the two previous posters' points, dear?

But more white people are ACTUALLY killed.
If 100 people are killed, according to the stats:
48 are white
26 are black
15 are Hispanic
More white people are ACTUALLY killed.

Sorry, but who is disputing that?
What some people are upset about is that blacks are disproportionately killed/harrassed/incarcerated based on demographics and criminality.

No, the numbers state more whites have been killed.
Demographics are irrelevant here as we are just looking at the actual kill figures
