Do you mean like the way Philando Castile was calm, reasonable, and cooperative while being executed after being stopped for a break light issue?

What about Charles Kinsey who was as cool and compliant and non-threatening as possible,

What about Donovan Lewis? Is it reasonable to execute a sleeping man?

What about Erik Cantu? I guess eating a hamburger in a parking lot is a capital offense?

BTW, the number of cases like the few I mentioned are FAR too numerous to even keep track of.

If you think that a persons skin color has no effect on how likely they are to be killed by a cop then you are just completely wrong.

Those are 4 people out of many thousands that have been killed by police in the US, they are hardly representative. A persons actions have hundreds of times more impact on how likely they are to be killed by a cop than his race.
