Now comes the story of Zac Kriegman, who, until not so long ago, was a director of data science at Thomson Reuters. Kriegman’s crime? Questioning the Black Lives Matter narrative.

He thought logic would win out. He was wrong.

over the last five years there have typically been between 30% and 100% more unarmed whites killed by police than unarmed blacks, with an average across the last five years of 39% more. For instance, in 2020 there were 457 whites shot and killed by police, compared to 243 blacks.

J-school-tier statistics. I'd fire him too.
