Police mass murders
2020 Police Officer use of deadly force:
- Police officers killed 1,021 suspects
- Police Officers killed 55 unarmed suspects
- 45 officers were killed in shootings
- There are slightly under 700,000 police officers in the United States
- in 2018 (latest numbers published), 65.1 million people had at least one contact (excluding people who have multiple contacts) with a law enforcement officers
- In 2020, people had roughly 350 million contacts with law enforcement of which 55 unarmed people were killed by police officers
- 0.053% of the unarmed suspects killed by police officers by percentage is less than .05/100th of all suspects are killed by police.
- 0.00000084% of the 65.1 million of those who had a single contact with law enforcement who were unarmed were killed by the police officer.
- unarmed suspects are a 1 in 6,363,363 people are killed by a police officer
- in the first 3 months of 2021, police officers killed 15 Caucasian (white) suspects and 5 black suspects.
- white males are killed by the police at a 3 times more rate over black males.
- of the unarmed 55 suspects killed by police, it does not include what the suspects were doing when killed by the police. (Pointing a fake handgun at an officer is considered an unarmed suspect)
Every life matters, however when you look at the actual numbers available by the DOJ it tells a different story. It is statistically nearly 0% chance of being killed by the police.
The numbers matter and show the real scope of the issue. Let’s start there when we are talking about reforming law enforcement or defunding the police. I copied and pasted, you should be able to copy mine and past in your email.
Big if true.

The exact numbers aren’t the problem. The problem is black people don’t trust the system. When a black person gets shot, they don’t trust that the cop was just and when it’s not just, they know they can’t trust the system to provide justice. This distrust is earned.
There’s also the problem of right wingers who have abandoned all skepticism of authority, unless it’s a democrat. You guys assume the cop must have been in the right. Black people assume the cop must have been wrong.
There’s a tight rope of skepticism of authority but trust in our institutions that must be walked and we have completely fallen off. -
Fuck off with you and your pathetic strawman ass fucks with each and everyone of your posts. No one has abandoned all skepticism of authority. You can't name a single person who has, but you ass rape that fucking strawman because you're dumb as dogshit and you don't have the ability to address what people have actually said and what they really think.TheKobeStopper said:The exact numbers aren’t the problem.

Fuck off. -
I wonder if anyone is fueling that distrust for political gain. You should look into thatTheKobeStopper said:The exact numbers aren’t the problem. The problem is black people don’t trust the system.

Right wingers are mask and science deniers and super spreaders because they won't listen to authority but have abandoned all skepticism of authority
Makes sense. Just throw whatever shit that fits
You could well over 81 percent agreement here on reigning in the police and limiting all deaths by police but you're more interested in your race obsession for political gain -

You said it far better than me. -
Yeah, it can't be that anyone on the left intentionally fuels mistrust of the police.

You show no faith in Black persons. Do you even see them? Honest, question, Kobe.TheKobeStopper said:The exact numbers aren’t the problem. The problem is black people don’t trust the system.

The problem is how people feel about it, not the statistics. Thanks for confirming. It’s about progress though right?TheKobeStopper said:The exact numbers aren’t the problem.

I understand perceptions are realities ... so I get the skepticism and understand that doesn’t change overnight
The Chauvin verdict should help in the narrative that bad policing isn’t held accountable
But the other side of the coin is that the data and stats aren’t presenting the reality as much as the exception
We have one of the most visible people in the world go after a cop that saved a life and potentially additional lives ... that’s incredibly irresponsible
As I’ve said elsewhere, not only do we need greater accountability out of policing, but we need greater accountability from the public. Until that happens, we’re in a perpetual state of things being fucked -
screw KBS, I am waiting for LBJ II to make a non-presidential tweet about all this
