There is some important context missing rom those statistics.

For homicide:

The per-capita offending rate for African-Americans was roughly eight times higher than that of whites, and their victim rate was similar

That number is roughly the same for violent offenses as well.

Given that they are generally 8x more likely to commit crimes, they are also 8x more likely to encounter the police for those crimes, which means they should be 8x more likely to be killed by a police officer.

Given that they are only 2.9x more likely to be killed be officers, they in reality are 2.75x less likely to be killed by police officers than white people.

As stated the number means little by itself.

You are talking percentage then you have to have the crime rates to see the differences.

Then you go to justified or unjustified by percentage.

It's about as stupid as saying Red States have higher murder rates than Blue States.

It falls apart under the slightest scrutiny. And may get you called a racist
