As I said, it is BEHAVIOR, not RACE that gets you shot by the cops...

Bow to the Robots is correct, you need to learn to use the quote function.

You are taking self reported data and using that to make definitive comparisons between the percentages of various races that are being killed by police. That is the equivalent of taking a poll conducted during Bill Oreilly, or Rachel Maddow's show, and using that information as if it is valid. When a statistical sample is not random, it is NOT a valid representation of the whole. While the CDC and FBI information may be incomplete, it is still random, which yields data that is FAR more accurate in terms making the comparison you are trying to make. Not to mention, the CDC and FBI are presumably non partisan in their political leanings, while the Guardian most certainly is not.

If Fox News were to encourage its viewers to submit anecdotal instances of any subject, and subsequently reported the percentage differences, you would be the first one crying that is BS. The Guardian does it however, and you act as if it is the final word on the subject. Strange.
