Well, naturally they have those numbers, because those are the numbers that support the claims they're trying to make. other people might have different numbers. "Lies, damned lies, and statistics", IOW.

The real problem, though, is that they're still stuck on classifying things by racial groups, which is really nothing more than perpetuating racism. If you look instead at the way cops tend to treat individuals down on the lower rungs of the economic/social ladder, you see a very different picture than the sort of "racist cops" theory they're pushing. And which IMHO looses them a lot of supporters from all the non-black people who've experienced the same sort of mistreatment.
