That the National Review uses, and a cursory look at the gross numbers seem to match well with OKDan’s mapping police violence.

The discrepancies seem to be in what constitutes “armed”

in 2016, according to WaPo:

233 blacks killed

166 had a gun or knife

Other categories include: vehicle, toy weapon, other, unarmed, armed. 

“Unarmed” is 17

Dan’s database would not include a vehicle or toy weapon or other as “armed”

Feel free to check my work: https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/national/police-shootings-2016/

My iPad’s latest upgrades hate this website, so formatting and editing is a chore. Apologies.
