Young white man, downs syndrome. Forcefully removed from half full movie theater by 3 off duty cops. He dies from experience.

White guy in Fairtfax, standing in front doorway, unarmed. Blown away by police gunfire. Hey, but at least they didn't fire the tank they had parked in his front yard!

So I did your work for you. You have 6 cases here. 2 of the cases involve white males. In two of the cases the officers were convicted of a serious crime (does not fit your narrative). It looks like 2 cases the officer was acquitted after being charged. 3 of the cases where there were either not charges filed or an officer acquittal involved some sort of resistance by the actor. Certainly does not seem to fit your narrative of cops murdering black males. The problem is there are to many instances where there is outrage and claims of racial motive only to find out the details don’t fit the narrative (Michael Brown, Michael Bennet, Trayvon Martin, Henry Louis Gates). So when the actual cases that need attention come about the American public takes sides based on their preconceived beliefs. Facts do not support your narrative.
