PIC of gender & race breakdown for civillian death by police [see comment for police force figures - about 20x more male police officers die than female ones] (plus we know that USA 95% work place deaths male, Australis 100%, UK not sure percentage but men 23x more likely to die at work than women]

Not sure why male vs female police figures are so radically different? Generally men do the riskiest jobs even when women are in the profession e.g. In Israel women serve in mialtry but even when front line, its not front line, they ar sent to quiet zones. Interestingly feminsit are very keen to degender roles such as firemen - firefighter (even though very few women, most services 0 women) and say service/soldier men and service women when 99.7% combat deaths are male.... BUT at the same time (cos I dont disagree with making gender neural name) they gender things like manspreading and mansplaining when women do it, often even more (femsplaining and nagging)

So picture shows civillians. Here is cops too:

That's a good infographic.

I wonder if data is beautiful or one of the infographic subs might like that.

Being disproportionately responsible for violent crime will do that. This applies to both Africa Americans and Men. That isn't to deny that many police killings are not justified. Just that we shouldn't be surprised that the inequality of police killings falls roughly in line with their perpetuation of violent crimes.
