  • There is a statistically disproportionate chance that someone could call the police to investigate me for walking around in circles in the complex.
  • There is a statistically disproportionate chance that I would be approached by law enforcement with fear or aggression, even when no laws have been broken.
  • There is a statistically disproportionate chance that more shots will be fired and I will be dead before any medical assistance is available.

Based on NO evidence aside from anecdotal I am absolutely willing to accept the above statements as fact with no need to provide proof.

  • There is a statistically disproportionate chance that I will be shot while reaching for my identification that I always keep in my back right pocket.

However, based on quite a bit of evidence I am calling ‘bullshit’ on the statement above. 1 white person is killed for every 22,615 white people arrested. 1 black person is killed for every 24,750 black people arrested.
If you don’t want to be shot by police be Asian/Indian but you’re fractionally more likely to be killed by police if you’re white than if you’re black, all media hysterics to the contrary.
