<p>“There are hundreds of shootings (including killings) of unarmed, presumably innocent black men by police each year.”</p>
<p>Approximately 400 people are killed by police every year. More whites and Hispanics are in this group, than blacks. About one fourth of these people are black men killed by white officers. It would certainly be a stretch to presume that these were all innocent. Though one innocent death is too many, no matter what race somebody is. They need effective non-lethal weapons. I’m afraid many do not use tasers because it doesn’t stop everyone.</p>
<p>“99% of unarmed black men are killed by other armed black men. It is the race-baiting hucksters, Jackson and especially Sharpton, who like to make it sound that poor innocent black men are being wantonly killed by cops and roving gangs of white men.”</p>
<p>Several thousand black people are murdered every year (usually young men) mostly by other black men. Sometimes little children get caught in the crossfire. Where are the race-baiters when this happens? Where are the riots and protests then?</p>
