I'm not sure how accurate that is.
There were 1,004 people killed by police in 2019, and 23% of them were black. Not all of those made national news, and I'm sure some barely blipped the local news.
No, not all make national news, but as I said they receive heavy scrutiny and
often national attention. I watch cases on a local level and I've seen a number of clear-cut cases of completely justified police shootings (i.e., video of the deceased on the run saying they're not going back to jail and showing their gun, then firing it at police) that resulted in local protests. It obviously didn't get national traction, but cases where a black person is killed by police in all but the most clear-cut cases are much more likely to garner media attention than that of other races.
Interestingly, using your source:
There were 9 unarmed black people killed in 2019 (3.8% of 235)
There were 19 unarmed white people killed in 2019 (5.1% of 370)
There were 6 unarmed hispanic people killed in 2019 (3.8% of 158)
FWIW, the 2010 Census has 12.6% of the US as black or African American, so they are pretty badly over-represented in being capped by the police.
Black people are also overrepresented when it comes to arrests, convictions, and prison population (and slightly overrepresented in police demographics, for that matter).
Because law enforcement agencies can't seem to get it through their thick skulls that heavy handed tactics are back firing, tolerance for thin blue line protection of bad apples is waiting, it's pushing things in certain communities to a breaking point, and despite aforementioned spot lights institutionally such animals were still in uniform and in a position to murder this man on video in front of a crowd for no discernable reason other than they bloody well felt like it.
Do you think that there is more or less of a tolerance for bad apples in US law enforcement now or twenty years ago? Fifty years ago? Seventy years ago?
Do you really think that the cop in this video intentionally killed his victim while being recorded by multiple witnesses?
Honestly, though, what gets me most is the whole "you can't blame black people for rioting, they're just angry and they can't figure out how to get results any way but rioting and looting!" routine. That is about as patronizingly racist a thing as you can possibly say. Black people have personal agency, are just as capable of living as responsible adults in a civilized society and participate as equals in the political process. Treating them like children who cannot possibly be held responsible for their actions or come up with a solution more elegant or effective than burning down and looting nearby businesses is humiliating and demeaning.
