Actually I was saying cops shoot too damn many people long before Floyd and BLM. Because they do. It’s just that simple.
Insults are FROM the simple. Every insult just proves you know you’re full of it. My place is better than you. And yes you keep putting me there. And as for thugs, well you’re the one excusing murder.
1329 people were killed by police officers last year.
A cursory examination of the cases will show that +90% of the fatalities involved individuals violently resisting arrest. Additionally, over 80% of those killed were multiple offenders.
In the most recent numbers available, 2022, showed over 53,000,000 police interactions in the US. Your odds of being killed by a police officer, if you are not a repeat offender and you don’t violently resist arrest, are so low as to be ridiculous.
I will concede that one death is too many, but the hysteria that surrounds police shootings is not warranted.
An estimated 40,990 people died in motor vehicle traffic crashes in 2023. You want a crusade? Lower THAT number.
