Police killings in the USA

^ interesting footage. The cop is respectful, and even friendly. Hardly the vicious racists usually portrayed. And then, when they finally shoot a guy that fired on them first, the family and activists call it an "execution". What are we to do when no one cares about the truth any more ?

Does a police force has the power to shoot to kill a record of their actions?

3d printing will pretty much end gun control, you can already print a perfectly functional firearm. Ammo with be harder to get than the weapons themselves.

Also remember that the laws in many (most?) places restrict the carrying of knives (for example) in public, when of course they are very accessible and used in the kitchen and elsewhere. Thus, even widespread availability and need in certain circumstances haven't been assumed by society to mean there should be lawlessness.

If you're a male in the USA your chances of being shot and killed by police are 20 times higher than that of a female.

It's time for men to stand up!

Of the 987 people shot and killed by police in 2017, 940 were men, 45 women and 2 unknown.

457 (431 male) were white
223 (214 male) black
179 (174 male) hispanic
128 (121 male) other/unknown.

This is clearly misandry... where is the uproar?!?

130 police were killed in the line of duty in the USA in 2017.

maybe its time for them to sit down shut up and put their guns down!!

how many cops were injured but not killed in the line of duty? im guessing body armour saved a few.

how many of these men were killed by police: a/ in self defense, b/ in defense of someone else?

For those who want to know how many Americans think. Here's a perfect example.

Yeah, now show the other side. That is so misleading.

Maybe those 15 year old kids burying their friends will make a dint.

One thing for sure, the NRA is just evil
