 Allegations Dey Against Police Say Dem Use Excess Force 
For one study for The Bureau of Justice Statistics for 2002 come 2011, person wey come in contact plus police, "bunch black menes (2.8%) get high chance say dem go meet police than white gees (1.0%) then Hispanics (1.4%) wey go percieve the threat or force wey no go cause death be more""Police Use of Nonfatal Force, 2002-11" (PDF). Bureau of Justice Statistics. November 2015.

Based on The Washington Post, for 2019 alone police shot then unalive 1,001 people for the States wey about halve of the people dem kill be white, then one quater be black wey mark thedeath rate for black Americans (per million, 31 people dey die) wey dey put am two times high as that for the white Americans (per million, 13 people dey )."Fatal Force: Police shootings database". The Washington Post. Retrieved June 19, 2020."People shot to death by U.S. police, by race 2020". Statista. Retrieved June 19, 2020. The Washington Post also dey account say 13 blacks wey be unarmed got shot by police for 2019.Stellino, Molly. "Fact check: Police killed more unarmed Black men in 2019 than conservative activist claimed". USA Today. Retrieved August 27, 2020.

For 2015, one study wey Cody Ross do for UC Davis show say dem dey kill unarmed black Americans plenty pass unarmed white Americans for police matter. E find say unarmed black people get 3.49 times more chance to get shot pass unarmed white people, and for some places, e fit reach 20 times more. Dem also find say armed blacks wey dem shoot plenty pass unarmed blacks, 2.79 times more. This study show say di bias wey dey happen for police shooting based on race no fit be explain by local crime rate difference.

For 2019, another study by Cesario and dem published inside Social Psychological and Personality Science find out say when dem adjust for crime, dem no see any

strong proof say black people dey suffer from fatal shooting like that, even for unarmed citizens or wey dem go mistakenly shoot harmless things. But for 2020, Cody Ross and dem come criticize di data wey Cesario and dem use. Dem take di same police shooting data from 2015 and 2016 show say bias dey plenty for police wey dey shoot unarmed black people. If di suspects get weapon, e no dey show that bias

Harvard economist Roland Fryer do one study wey find out say blacks and Hispanics dey 50% more chance to face non-lethal force as police dey deal with dem, but when e come to police shoot wey involve officer, dem no see any racial difference in the raw data or when dem consider context factors. One 2019 study for PNAS come conclude say black people dey less likely to die from police than white people based on police encounter death rates. But later dem take back the paper because dem say 'our data and statistical approach fit investigate officer characteristics wey relate to the race of civilians wey police don shoot dead,' but di paper don dey 'used to support say no racial biases dey for fatal shootings or policing generally' when dem actually analyze 'no dey fit address racial disparities for di probability wey dem go shoot.' Another study come show say dem conclusions no correct due to Simpson's paradox. Di paper talk say although white people dey more likely to die in police encounters, overall black people still dey face discrimination because dem dey get more interactions with police due to structural racism. Dem dey more likely to be stopped for petty crimes or even no crime. White people dey meet police rarely, and mostly for serious crimes like shooting, wey police go fit use force more. Di same paper also support Ross and Fryer findings, conclude say overall death rate dey more useful statistic than death rate for encounters.

Dem dey police Black Lives Matter events too much, ehn. Make we talk am. For 2020, when protest dey happen, dem send 43,350 soldiers join police to go handle BLM protesters like say dem be war. Even military plane fly watch dem later protests. E be clear say, people wey dey observe like Joe Biden don talk say, anytime far-right dey do their wahala like the Capitol attack for 2021, police go dey chill small pass when BLM dey protest peacefully. For 2015, one police for Oregon kwa don say 'I go babysit these fools' on social media about BLM event, and dem quick take am off street duty after that gbege. According to one report wey Movement for Black Lives drop for August 2021, U.S. government dey purposely target BLM protesters to scatter dem movement for summer 2020. Di report talk say, all di stuff wey dem find just dey confirm wetin BLM organizers don sabi for long about how government dey treat racial justice protests different.

 Disproportionate policing wey dey happen for Black Lives Matter events. 
Black Lives Matter protesters dey face over-policing wey dem dey fight against. For May 2020, aside police, 43,350 military troops come out against BLM protesters all over di country. Dem even send military plane watch over BLM protests after. People like President Joe Biden don talk say violent far-right groups, like di Capitol attack, get smaller police presence than peaceful BLM protests. Back in November 2015, police officer for Oregon sef lose im street duty because e post for social media say e go ‘babysit these fools’ referring to BLM event.

According to report wey Movement for Black Lives release for August 2021, U.S. government target BLM protesters to disrupt dia movement during di summer of 2020. Dem talk say di data wey dey show for di report dey prove wetin di Black organizers don sabi well about di federal government dey police and prosecute racial justice protests differently.

Statistic wey dey show say people for America dey see Black Lives Matter differently based on race. One poll from September 2015 talk say almost two-thirds of African Americans dey mostly gree with Black Lives Matter, but 30% of black Americans and 37% of white Americans no get any opinion about am. Among white people wey dem survey, 41% think say Black Lives Matter dey preach violence, and 59% believe say e dey distract from serious matters of racial discrimination.
