Sorry. I went with the gunfire ones and missed the others. That doesn't change the argument. If we need thousands of deaths to be concerned about something, police deaths in the line of duty through violence isn't a blip on the radar. Feel free to change the tack of his argument.

No problem, but we have over 500K injuries a year also. Only about 1% of police encounters result in violence. The vast majority of them are started by the bad guy. Do we need to train better? Yes and we need to hire better. Look at Cleveland. Bad tactics and a bad hire led to that.
