A black person is 42 times more likely to die from medical malpractice(32,500 per year) than the police(750 per year). Why isn't BLM calling to defund hospitals? Edit: percentage was wrong. They are 130 times more likely to die from medical malpractice. 750 is the total deaths. 250 is the number of those that are black.

It's the insurance, hospitals administrators are full up bean counters so it you have Police insurance you have options if not then just enough so you don't die inside the place and bring lawsuit.

Malpractice has nothing to do with insurance or race. 250,000 people in the US die every year from malpractice. 87% of this people aren't black. Twice as many white people are shot and killed by police than blacks. It is actually worth noting that even though blacks commit 55% of violent crimes, they are only 33% of the total deaths by cops.
