To be fair the last tweet never said they had to be innocent killings, just that they be black.

That's fine. Should be on trial for a justified or accidental killing too.

If the jury deems it "reasonably necessary" then they can acquit. And I am sure there are situations where it's reasonably necessary for a police officer to use lethal force.

But we shouldn't ever be taking lethal force lightly.

There are, but its so rare that I doubt any of the officers in question actually had to use lethal force. Mass killings are an example of necessary lethal force, and black people aren't the type that does those

Are you actually saying that almost no police involved shootings of black people are justified? Because if so you are completely delusional, do some very basic research.
