I do not beleive this article 1 bit! Using the link to the Officers Memorial Page which has all the statics. I choose Officers death by gun (only) to rule out car accidents, boat accidents, heat related death, etc. The statistic are NOT what the article claims (unless he did some weird form of calculating). This is what I found: From 09/10 - 106 deaths, 10/11 - 175 deaths, 11/12 - 116 deaths, 12/13 - 79 deaths, 13/14 - 78 deaths, 14/15 - 86 deaths, 15/to present - 65 deaths. Total 705 deaths, when you divide that by 7 years the mean is 100.7 deaths per year.........So police ARE NOT SAFER under Obama...they were safer under the last 3 Presidents. My point, when it comes to statics, they are not always what the media claims..................and feel free to sign into the article site and "like" some of the comments.

I did not believe it either, but

THANKS for doing the homework!

Facts and mathematics really do matter.

Unfortunately, sometimes one must dig deep to demonstrate that other people have massaged the numbers. It has been said that “if you torture the numbers long enough, they will tell you anything you want to hear.”

The more cold hard facts pile up against leftists’ fantasies, the more delusional they have to become to deal with it.

LOL!

The issue here should be how many Black offenders intentionally murdered, or tried to murder, a white Police officer.

The author does not tell us if the rate of Black offenders killing white Police officers has increased under Obama.

Was that a deliberate omission by the author, or just his statistical ignorance?

Barky, his minions, and their puppeteers all know that as long as there is public trust in local law enforcement, then it will be impossible to have Cloward-Piven go national.

Barky himself announced his plan to have his own paramilitary "police" force, and if they're divorced from the local population, and instead a federal force, it's far more likely that they'll be willing to the anti-American, unconstitutional acts that Barky and his minions order.

I'm convinced that this is the reason Barky and his minions take every opportunity to denigrate local police.

And the sky is green with brown polka dots. 2+2=69. Down is forward and up is inside out. Whatever you say, WApost.

Geez, it’s just a data point. You need multiple data points to prove anything.

And our motto has been changed from “In God We Trust” to “A Circle is a Square”

The Compost is called “Pravda on the Potomac” for a good reason. Where reality is an option.

There’s a reason we call that publication the comPost. At another time, it was dubbed “Pravda on the Potomac”.
