Your gun is the problem. Not their gun.

They're just trying to get home to their families at the end of their shift.

Only 120 something cops were killed in the line of duty. A lot of those from vehicle accidents.

US population - 320 million
UK population - 60 million
UK population - 60 million

So 5 times the population, 328 times the police killing folks? Makes sense.

The shooting is the final one to be counted as part of The Washington Post’s year-long project tracking on-duty police killings by firearm, an issue that has taken on new urgency in the wake of a number of high-profile killings of unarmed African American men.

Her son will most likely get killed slinging dope in the hood

To put the numbers in perspective, there are 320 million people in the US, and 64 million in the UK. Adjusting for population, you're roughly 66 times more likely to get killed by American Police than their British counterparts.
Shockingly, it might even be higher than that. Police are not required to disclose how many people they kill every year to anyone.

So the US has more than 5 times the population, but has 328 times more the police killings

People in the US are much more agressive than in the UK and also have guns. And guns aren't the reason people are more violent. How can simpletons not understand this?

I don't see the problem with these numbers.

The Chappelle skit of "sprinkle some crack on him" comes to mind.

Do those number look into how justified the killing was? Numbers without context are pretty useless.
