Not ALL suspects that are ARMED are not being shot:

Racial FBI Crime Data: Murder by the Numbers

Black on Black crime always becomes the go-to attack when Black people ask for equal justice.

Well, there's more to those numbers than some would like to present.

It's completely retarded that I even have to do this:

2014 FBI Crime Data:

> Black Murder Total: 2693

Black on Black: 2205
Black on White: 446
Black on Other: 25
Black on Unknown: 17
Black on Non-Black Total: 488

> White Murder Total: 2756

White on White: 2488
White on Black: 187
White on Other: 47
White on Unknown: 34
White on Non-White Total: 268

Fact check: More whites shot by police in 2015 than minorities?
By   THE WASHINGTON POST
July 12, 2016 at 12:05 am

Huckabee appears to have cited the Post’s findings that of the 990 people shot in 2015, 948 people were male, 494 were white and 258 were black. So using raw numbers, Huckabee’s claim is accurate.

But as we often warn readers, criminal justice trends generally are calculated by rate, rather than raw numbers. A per capita calculation of crime gives a more accurate representation of the risk of certain crimes to a community, rather than raw numbers.

In this case, looking at crimes simply as the raw number of white people affected vs. the number of minorities affected is misleading. By definition, there are fewer minorities.

“Over the past year, The Post found that the vast majority of those shot and killed by police were armed and half of them were white. Still, police killed blacks at three times the rate of whites when adjusted for the populations where these shootings occurred. And although black men represent 6 percent of the U.S. population, they made up nearly 40 percent of those who were killed while unarmed.”
