**** “According to WAPO, “the elite cadre of British cops who are entrusted with guns almost never use them. Police in Britain have fatally shot two people in the past three years.” They then report that shooting two people in three years is “less than the average number of people shot and killed by police every day in the United States over the first five months of 2015.” ****

Question that needs to be asked ... How many of these elite went home to their families after their shift?

At the high end of the 99.999-99.99999999% range.

What’s your point?

More specifically, ZERO UK police died in the line of duty since 22 September 2013, and the weapon used in that case was a car; and ZERO killed by gunshot since 18 September 2012.
