- 1. Police killed twice as many whites in 2015 than blacks. Why did the president not mention Dylan Noble, a 19-year-old white man killed by police in Fresno, CA on June 25th?
- 2. More whites and Hispanics are killed by police than blacks. Actually, 12 percent of white and Hispanic homicide deaths were due to police officers, while only 4 percent of black homicide deaths were the result of police officers. The majority of black homicides are the result of killings by other blacks.
- 3. Unarmed black men are more likely to die by the gun of a cop than unarmed white men... but that fact alone does not tell the whole story. Black men, more often than white men will attempt to assault the officer, grab the officer's gun, or otherwise attack the officer. In several cases, the man attacked and began to beat the officer, and in some cases where a physical altercation was involved, there was an accidental firing caused by their own assault on the officer. Statistically, these are all considered a death of an unarmed person.
