Leon Ford was shot by a Pittsburgh police officer 5 times in 2012. He was “mistaken” for being a gang member, he was unarmed. Ford was paralyzed, doctors told him that he’d never walk again. Here he is taking his first steps with his son rooting him on.pic.twitter.com/dl5Kz6s06O

3. 104 fully unarmed African Americans were killed by police in 2015. That’s more than any single year of lynching in America in over 100 years. The average per year in Jim Crow was 38.

4. Unarmed African Americans are at least twice as likely to be shot & killed by police as unarmed white Americans. This isn't whining – this is a factual racial disparity.
