White Thomson Reuters data scientist says he was FIRED by woke bullies for sharing data showing cops kill more unarmed white people than black people and claimed BLM contributed to deaths of thousands

A former director of data science at Thomson Reuters said he was fired for sharing research on the company's internal social media platform that showed police killed more unarmed white people than black people and that the Black Lives Matter movement allegedly caused the deaths of thousands.

Zac Kriegman, who worked at Thomson Reuters for six years before being fired last summer, claimed he was let go from his $350,000 job because he stood against the company's reporting conventions on BLM in order to dispel what the 'false narrative' that black people were the largest victim of police violence.

In a piece first published on Bari Weiss's Substack, Common Sense, Kriegman said he shared with collogues concerns that reports saying unarmed black people are killed by police at a disproportionately higher rate than their white counterparts was not accurate.

The Washington Post, which has led the effort to document fatal police shootings, found that police had killed 3,024 white people and 1,596 black people since 2015.

The findings highlight that black people were disproportionately affected by the shootings as they make up only 13 percent of the U.S. population, but Kriegman said the rhetoric was incomplete and when he tried proving it, he said he received backlash from fellow white co-workers.

It only takes a few bad apples telling the truth to spoil the big lie. Something’s got to be done with them.

Marxists don’t want the truth, they wanted him to be a part of their communist plans. The truth is not any part of that.

Either the data supports this conclusion, or it does not.

Notice how they don’t give the data.

A police officer’s chance of getting killed by a black assailant is 18.5 times higher than the chance of an unarmed black person getting killed by a cop.

“ The findings highlight that black people were disproportionately affected by the shootings as they make up only 13 percent of the U.S. population,”

AND commit 50% of the murders nationwide.

white people are the ones who are being dirproportionately killed by cops since blacks have a far higher crime rate and interaction rate with cops.

Cops are the number one serious threat to my home, weather is number two.

I have taken precautions for both.
