Exploring Analytical Avenues (Week 6 – Wednesday)

To examine several facets of police shootings, I statistically examined the Washington Post data. I considered demographic patterns where I could look at distributions of age and race to find trends. I could investigate the percentage of incidents where people were armed and perhaps the kind of weapons used with the assistance of the armed status. Is there a link between using body cameras and fewer incidents? The role of the police force must be regarded seriously.

During the statistical exploration, I need to keep in mind all the ethical concerns and awareness of potential biases in the dataset, aiming for a fair and impartial interpretation of the results.
