Officer characteristics and racial disparities in fatal officer-involved shootings

There is widespread concern about racial disparities in fatal officer-involved shootings and that these disparities reflect discrimination by White officers. Existing databases of fatal shootings lack information about officers, and past analytic approaches have made it difficult to assess the contributions of factors like crime. We create a comprehensive database of officers involved in fatal shootings during 2015 and predict victim race from civilian, officer, and county characteristics. We find no evidence of anti-Black or anti-Hispanic disparities across shootings, and White officers are not more likely to shoot minority civilians than non-White officers. Instead, race-specific crime strongly predicts civilian race. This suggests that increasing diversity among officers by itself is unlikely to reduce racial disparity in police shootings.

There numbers seem pretty good, and there is little evidence that Blacks are upset about police racism. There is a lot of evidence that Blacks are at the bottom of the economic ladder.  There is even more evidence that every generation of Blacks discover this horrid truth and rebel.

Cure? None that I have found.
How about making parental units for Blacks?
‘We Have No Choice’: Minneapolis City Council President Wants To ‘Dismantle’ The Police

“We’re serious, and frankly I think the police department has started the process of dismantling itself,” Bender told HuffPost. “We really have no choice but to step back and say: ‘What are the transformational changes we can make.’”


Those changes, Bender said, could include increased funding to community-based safety programs that would serve as an alternative to a formal police force and create opportunities that wouldn’t necessitate having armed officers respond to some calls. In an interview with The Minneapolis Star Tribune, she hypothesized that in some instances, social workers or medics could respond instead.

The temporary restraining order — if passed on Friday — would still need to be approved by a judge, likely sometime next week, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reported.

This was an LBJ idea, didn't work. By the time the kids discover their situation, parenting is too late.
