As of the June 22 update, the Washington Posts database of fatal police shootingsshowed 14 unarmed Black victims and 25 unarmed white victims in 2019.

The number of unarmed Black shooting victims is down 63% from 2015, when the database began. There are about 7,300 Black homicide victims a year. The 14 unarmed victims in fatal police shootings would comprise only 0.2% of that total.

as to your vegas shooting question. You must not pay a lot of attention. Heres a 150 page summary

"There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics."

Someone already pointed out how your statistics indicate that Black unarmed victims are still killed 2x-3x as often as White unarmed victims. And that's after a large decrease in recent years.

And what percentage of white homicide victims do police killings make up? And why does it matter that you're more likely to be killed in another incident than by a police officer? That doesn't make a police officer killing an unarmed victim any less wrong. Might as well compare homicide victims to war casualties and say "well, I guess there's no problem with murder, let's just ignore it all."
