 GD> 1441 more whites died then 778 black in last 4 years

 DS> Not the point.

 GD> It is the point because of BLM they continie to get it very wrong they

The point was and is that blacks are killed by police at a higher rate
than whites.  Stop trying to deflect to other arguements if you cannot
address that point.

 DS> Duh -- the quote is explicit that it about shootings of blacks by police
 DS> officers -- why are you trying to muddy the water?

 GD> Nope just the facts Dale and those facts prove that more whites are
 GD> killed by police, not the vise versa. Which shoots (sorry for the pun)
 GD> holes in this narrative that more blacks are killed then whites. 

See above.
 
 GD> What about Chicago? They have the strictest gun laws in the U.S. Yet
 GD> people are still killing each other by the many hundreds every weekend
 GD> on the Southside of Chicago. 

See above.

 DS> With good reason, perhaps because England has stricter gun control laws.
 DS> Also due to the fact that most British police do not even carry guns --
 DS> they don't feed the need to do so.

 GD> Then someone with a gun means w/ bad intentions will slaughter the
 GD> copper in England . 

Does not happen nearly as often as it does in the USA.  But, once again
see above.

 GD> There is another video that I have seen that shows exactly what I

 GD> Here ya go
 GD> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5QEnGkIbzA

It was fired wildly from a considerable distance and was no danger to
anyone.

 GD> Says a lot. 
 GD> Firing a taser "IS" a deadly weapon according the District Attorney of
 GD> Georgia as was found to be the case when different cops used a taser on

It depends.  If it were always a deadly weapon, then why bother using it
instead of a gun?  It is only a deadly weapon in some situations -- and
this was not one of them.

 GD> The video also explains why Brooks ran, he had a criminal record and
 GD> if arrested would of been jailed.

I did not see or hear that in the video -- show me the time spot where
it occured.

Nor does it explain why running was justification for using deadly
force, especially when the police had all the information they might
need to apprehend Brooks later on.
