"NYC Police Officer Won't Be Charged In Chokehold Death Case"

The result are protests in my city, including near what usually is better known for Christmas trees and spectaculars (Rockefeller Plaza). One question for me is -- putting aside assumptions -- the numbers of police killing suspects and racial breakdowns. We need better data. When trivia columns are doing more to provide info than some outlets, we are in trouble. Talk of "felons" shot doesn't help me enough when it is far from clear "felons" were involved in this case or Ferguson. This sort of data should be readily provided or demanded.
