That’s because this newest breed of cops shoot first and ask questions later.

In a year that saw an UNBELIEVABLE run on firearms and ammunition. Firearm ownership up, police deaths down. Go figure.

what real objective journalists would do would discuss how while firearms deaths in 2013 are’as low as they were in 2013, consider that in light of how many guns criminals, law-abiding citizens, leos, govt agencies, and the military all have. consider further the much larger population in the us today.

the proper conclusion is in geneal, people are safer, are the opposite of generally reckless, or trying to stir up trouble with their guns. they are responsible and they use them for defensive purposes, and may even try to do what they can to avoid having to use them.

Forty-six officers were killed in traffic related accidents, and 33 were killed by firearms.

THAT DOES IT!

We need car control!

We need car registration!

We need licensing and training before using a car!

What am I missing?

In the same time how many innocent subjects (I not sure if we’re citizens anymore) have died as a result of LEO gunfire? And how many died while the LEOs dilly dallied around before attempting to intervene in a situation?

"Forty-six officers were killed in traffic related accidents, and 33 were killed by firearms."

Sounds like a lot of lives could be saved by taking the cars away from the cops.

According to the report, 111 federal, state, local, tribal and territorial officers were killed in the line of duty nationwide this past year, compared to 121 in 2012.

Are there any corresponding data published on the total number of people killed by police in the line of duty each year. It would be interesting to contrast the two data sets.

Good news, although one suspects the year saw a record number of pet dog deaths at the hands of America’s law enforcement professionals - to use the term loosely.
