Statistically Speaking

Is a young black man more likely to be killed by police or by other black men?
From my observations - in Michigan - we see shooting daily - but it never makes national news. Unless it is a cop. Then it's "a story".
What am I missing?

Why should they have to?
They pay taxes, the cops should have been protecting them from other blacks this whole time.

Why would every black man need a cop assigned to them? Can't they handle violence the same way that they do in predominantly white and affluent neighborhoods? Do you realize that you're peddling racist tropes and calling it logic?
