Libs and the media go crazy when an African American is shot by a cop, but silence when a white person is shot and killed. This study by an African American professor at Harvard shows no police bias in these shootings although he does find different treatment relative to touching, macing, being pushed against a wall, etc.

The Washington Post came to the same conclusion:

All deaths are tragic but the media seem focused on only one side of the equation. I believe both studies focused on interaction with police officers and thus take crime into consideration. In other words, they don't just look at the percentage of the population but on the number of police interactions which typically involves crime.
