How many more times is it likely that African American males will be involved in violent crimes than the number of times White American males are
Police search black motorists 3x more than white motorists.
For possible reason, see the above stat.
But (!), searches of black motorists don't yield more contraband.
Apparently those odds are acceptable to you as a white boy, put you in blackface and drop you off in Grosse Pointe on a dark and rainy night you will likely change your tune

How many times have blacks been killed by police in Grosse Point? I don't know of any, and our friend google didn't find any either. But it may have happened.
It is more dangerous for anybody, of any color, to be in the streets of Detroit on a dark or rainy night, or any other time, than on the streets of Grosse Pointe.
But that is a different subject than the supposed problem of the police killing blacks because they are black.
