Many of the Cincinnati cases had the deceased using weapons against the police, yet the main stream news media keep reporting and insisting that the deceased were unarmed. Unbelievable!

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Most people do not know that 18 of 21 Cincinnati perps had fired first or had a firearm when killed. The race card and the bias news media against firearms is at work here.

With a national population of about 3 hundred million I would say law enforcement does a remarkable job of protecting the public from those who would do them harm.

I see that you need some help here. The police do not protect anyone in the United States. Police only clean up the crime scene. You should read Dial 911 and die by Ricahrd W Stevens. Your eyes will be opened to the fact that each citizen is responsibile for thier own self defense.

There are about 450,000 LEO's in the US. of that number 120,000 are street cops, the rest being clericals, supervisors, investigators, etc.

Of that 120,000 cops, three shifts leave 40,000 cops per shift for 300,000,000 million or one cop per 2500 citizens.

You are safer in Disneyland with FL 350000 CCW citizens.

"There are about 450,000 LEO's in the US."

So, assuming the numebrs are correct, less than 1% of all LEO's are involved in fatal shootings each year. In 1999, the latest year for which figures are available, researchers found that 43.8 million people — including people who called to report a crime — had contact with police. What percent were involved in fatal shootings? .0003?
