I have.

Black people commit over 50% of violent crimes, but make up only about 20% of those killed by cops.

I said severity of sentencing and conviction rates.

Besides which, your dumbass didn't even read the article you posted! Wow lmao. Also what if you were able to use any sort of reasoning you'd try and link violent crimes againsts police vs fatal police shootings.

The irony throughout this sub is...chefs kiss

Studies into sentencing and conviction rates suggest any racial bias against blacks is marginal. 

I wasn’t linking the article, I was linking the data. Which speaks for itself.
