Anyway, some have made the point that the numbers are most relevant to specific precincts or municipalities or whatever you want to call it.
For example, let's just assume we have this problem in KCK or KCMO. I have heard that the demographics of the respective police forces are waaaaay too white compared to the demographic of the population. It's going to take many years, maybe 20 or 30 years, to get halfway close to an ideal state. Which I'm not saying means we shouldn't try, but it's good to set some realistic expectations. Kudos to the Dallas police chief urging his constituents to join his department. That's a great first step (although I don't think Dallas has much of a problem anyway, but whatevs).
