This is an incorrect response, because the claim Laura made was POC are at higher risk for being killed for nothing more than being stopped while ALSO being (Native/Latinx/black). When white men are killed by police, it’s NOT because of their whiteness. Few if any people have been killed for sitting in their vehicle doing nothing wrong after being pulled over, while white.

People of color, including women, are at higher risk than white men for being killed by police for doing NOTHING wrong besides driving or idling, while ALSO being a person of color. That was the point.
