Has it been worth it?

 

On May 25, 2020 George Floyd was died in the custody of four Minneapolis cops.  Two were white, one was Asian and one was black. Since then there has been endless violence. It has come at a significant cost in destruction of property and especially in lives. Let’s have a look at the numbers that have some bearing on this whole episode.

Since Floyd’s death, 23 people have died in the violence. Most were black.

In 2019, 15 unarmed black persons were killed by police.

In 2019, 25 unarmed white persons were killed by police.

In 2019, 89 policemen died in the line of duty. 48 were murdered.

There were fewer unarmed black killings by police in 2019 than in years previous.

Look at the kids lost.
