Here are some excerpts of the interview
(about one fifteenth of the entire transcript):
The Justice Department under Obama
came out with a report in March of 2015,
a little over a year ago, that found that
black and Hispanic officers were actually far more likely (than white officers)
to shoot unarmed black suspects under what's known as threat misperception.
Then there was a study by the New York Police Department.
The former acting director of the National Institute of Justice found that
black officers in the New York Police Department
were 3.3 times more likely to use their guns at shooting scenes than white officers.
And now police officers are backing off.
... and crime is going up astronomically,
as much as 90 percent in cities with large black populations.
12 percent of all whites and Hispanics
who die of homicide are killed by police officers.
Four percent of all blacks
who die of homicide are killed by police officers.
The fact is that over 6,000 blacks die of homicide each year.
That is more than white and Hispanic homicide victims combined,
even though blacks are 13 percent of the nation's population.
And the reason they are dying of homicide at a rate
six times higher than whites and Hispanics combined is because
they commit homicide at eight times the rate higher
than whites and Hispanics combined.

I made some big cuts. I hope that's better.
Three to five SHORT paragraphs is the general rule.
