Here are the Actual Numbers
White
Year   Year   Year   Year
2017   2018   2019   2020
---- | ---- | ---- | ---- 
 457    399    370    215

Black
Year   Year   Year   Year
2017   2018   2019   2020
---- | ---- | ---  | ----
 223    209    235    111

As a direct result of these calculations.

234 more whites died then blacks in 2017
190 more whites died then blacks in 2018
135 more whites died then blacks in 2019
104 more whites died then blacks in 2020

1441 more whites died then 778 black in last 4 years
Infact the numbers also show that the number of whites deaths is greater by
the number of 663 within the past 4 years.

Here is the full quote 

Sadly, the trend of fatal police shootings in the United States seems to only
be increasing, with a total 558 civilians having been shot, 111 of whom were
Black, as of July 29, 2020. In 2018, there were 996 fatal police shootings, and
in 2019 this figure increased to 1,004. Additionally, the rate of fatal police
shootings among Black Americans was much higher than that for any other
ethnicity, standing at 31 fatal shootings per million of the population as of
July 2020.

Let's take a deeper dive, shall we? with what the above text is indicating
here.  558 civilians having been shot 111 of whom were black this means that
447 of these were of another race. That number of skyrocketed to 1004, the
graphic does NOT say it was by by Police officers, could it be
that these numbers are BLACK on BLACK crimes on each other?  Could be. 
You never have heard and you never will hear people within the BLM movement
and you will not hear Democratic Politicians condemning this violence.

Police brutality in the U.S.

In recent years, particularly since the fatal shooting of Michael Brown in
Ferguson, Missouri in 2014, police brutality has become a hot button issue in
the United States. The number of homicides committed by police in the United
States is often compared to those in countries such as England, where the
number is significantly lower.

Black Lives Matter
The Black Lives Matter Movement, formed in 2013, has been a vocal part of the
movement against police brutality in the U.S. by organizing "die-ins",
marches, and demonstrations in response to the killings of black men and
women by police.

Black Lives Matter is a farce. 

They do not talk or speak of the issues within the Black community, as to why
there is so much Black on Black Crime, which has caused death of innocent
children within their own homes. 

They will not speak to what happened as to what lead the death to whomever
that are protesting about. or ask any of the questions such as did the
individual corporate with the police? 
As far these people are concerned there is no consequence or irrational
behavior that could of lead to the killing. He or she was simply killed in
cold in cold blood... This is how dumb and undedicated these people are.

Quote
While Black Lives Matter has become a controversial movement within the U.S.,
it has brought more attention to the number and frequency of police shootings
of civilians. 

This is because they refuse to be arrested by the cops, these people seem
to not have the understanding; what it means to have their day in court, even
they might feel (as I'm sure you will pick up on) that they feel that they
will not be successful in court. but it beats dying - any day of the week!  

This would of course mean that they would continue to live and see another
sunset as well take care of their families, seems so selfish to take the
route of resisting arrest that ends up these people losing their lives.

 DS>  GD> Rayshard Brooks would still be alive today if he did resist arrest. 
 DS>  GD> Don't take my word for it watch the video how this started and how it
 DS>  GD> ended

 DS> Except that the end of that 44 minute video does not show how it ended.
 DS> It shows a lot of discussion.  It shows the officer administering a
 DS> field sobriety test (which Brooks passed much better than I could at any
 DS> time).  Then it showed the officer putting cuffs on Brooks without any
 DS> real explanation.  A shuffle ensued and Brooks ran away (not the best
 DS> choice I admit).  From then on, we only hear sounds.  Did you watch the
 DS> video?  If you had, you could not have truthfully said it showed the
 DS> end.

You are right about the discussion just about 42 minutes worth. You really
believe that you or I would be given 42 minutes of time to try to explain
ourselves?

A lot of people can pass a sobriety test and still be impaired, this is for the
law to decide not the one who is accused, that is done in the court of law not
on the street or in public where your being viewed as menace to society.

Rayshard did not know where he was at multiple times. Which was also heard on
the video but you seemed to have glossed over that fact.

 DS> Other videos show that the officer shot Brooks in the back as he was
 DS> running away.  Brooks was no threat to the officer or anyone -- which is
 DS> the critera for using deadly force.

This video that I posted was from a Police Body cam, what other video would
you be referencing. If there was a video captured by Wendy's restaurant that
camera was destroyed as was the Wendy's was burned down to the ground by people
who did not know that their brother from another mother was treated more than
more then fairly for 42 minutes, the carnage began when Rayshard resisted
arrest.

 DS> Wrong.  The cop fired while Brooks was running away -- shot in the back.

No you're wrong. COPS do not shoot at suspects white or black just for fleeing
the scene.  
At 41:35 you can hear the cop telling Rayshard to let go of the tazer.
