Last year Police killed 9 unarmed blacks, and 17 unarmed whites. Officers were charged and tried for excessive force or even homicide in some cases, in other cases not charged because shooting was justified. They get lots of training but sometimes have to make split second decisions. Sometimes they get it wrong. I doubt it can be eliminated totally.
But these deaths are a small problem when compared to civilians, both black and white, killing each other by the 1000s every year.. Want to save more lives? Fix that problem.
