If you weren't talking about a matter of life and death, maybe you'd have an argument.
But blacks kill twice as many whites as whites kill blacks: https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2018/crime-in-the-u.s.-2018/tables/expanded-homicide-data-table-6.xls
And even if you add in police killings, it's still comparable.
So, actually, in terms of life and death, whites and blacks are in a symmetric situation.
