I won't speak to their intentions, because I don't know those any more than you do. Of course I see a problem with that, and I've said similar throughout. How many of those 984 were armed felons. My concern comes to a nearly complete stop on those cases.
Who gives a frick what your concerns are...you are a retard solving a problem like a retard!

Society has created the problem in the black community unfortunately. And by society I mean white people.

NYPD is the best trained force in the US. They have to be because NYC is ground zero for terrorist threats in the US. Despite having all of the big city problems they manage to kill citizens at a much lower rate than elsewhere in the US. It is no coincidence that they can do this...it is the training of their force that does it.
Many of the killings that take place elsewhere across the US are unnecessary.
I don't think you have the mental capacity to think about the problem with any complexity. That's your issue. Solve it, or don't.

Once again, you can't address the salient information I spoon fed you but instead have to croon troglodyte tunes.
Why do you hate the NYPD?

As of September 1, 2015 there were 776 people killed by police. 161 of them were unarmed. Of those armed, 374 were carrying firearms, and 107 had knives. Still working on how many were felons.
I would be careful about automatically justifying those carrying, unless of course you think all those carrying today need to be put down by the closest police officer.

So 5 times the population, 328 times the police killing folks? Makes sense.
American thugs are 328 times less likely to comply with officer's demands

Are you talking about the white thugs in Wyoming that were killed at a rate about 300 times those in Britain. Have you ever been to England...its not Harry Potter but more like Oliver Twist.

What information? You posted the same link to several different discussion points. Do you need me to break down why your "idea" isn't plausible, or do you think you can manage to head back over to Google for another go of it.

What were those not armed with firearms or knives armed with? I'll wait to see how many were felons. I'd also be curious to know the circumstances of each event. Just because someone isn't a felon, doesn't mean they weren't active in committing a felony at the time of the death. Of the 161 unarmed individuals, what were the circumstances surrounding those deaths?

The same should be said for automatically assuming that the shootings where the person was unarmed is unjustified.

What is the crime rate between the two?
Posted on 1/6/16 at 1:42 pm to HeavyCore
US Population: 319 million (.0000031% killed by cops)
UK Population: 64 million (.00000005% killed by cops)
Pretty outstanding. A country with a population 5x the size of another has more murders by cop.
I really wish people would quit comparing the US to the UK, or any other European country for that matter.

Yeah I get that. But cops might not shoot a guy who doesn't have a gun even if he's violent.
I had a partner that had a butcher knife thrown at him and he didn't fire at the suspect. That took some restraint...
A lot of restraint. The guy was immediately less dangerous after throwing his knife, but I'd be pretty pissed off at him and want to shoot him

What's the ratio of democrats between US and UK?
Don't blame this on demographics. Cops kill many more whites in this country than blacks.
Even if you take that into consideration, the numbers are still vast.

So, the average citizen is 5 times more likely to be killed in the US than the UK, and 66 times more likely to be killed by an American cop than a British Bobby.
What do you mean by "average citizen?" The average family guy living in small-town America is not 5 times more likely to be killed by police or anyone else than the average British citizen is.
We have a large and violent contingent that the UK doesn't have to deal with. The wages of sin is death. Our country's great sin was slavery. We will pay for it until we die.
