Most police officers do an amazing job at what they do: protecting and serving the American people. Despite this, there is a serious problem with some cops assuming that their badges grant them extra rights. Last year, police killed 1,100 Americans. The first five months of 2015 saw 476 deaths at the hands of American police, with over 1,100 predicted by the end of the year.
You may think that these numbers seem low, considering there are over 300 million Americans. But, when you consider the killing rate of our police officers in comparison with the law enforcement of other countries, it is very embarrassing.
Japanese police killed one person last year in a country with over 100 million citizens. Icelandic police only killed one person in its entire history. And, to top if off, American police have a murder rate worst than the homicide rates of the two most violent countries in the world.

These numbers don’t tell the whole story.

If the criminals were kept in prison where they belong instead of being turned loose the police wouldn’t have to use lethal force as much. They do their jobs and then the courts turn the felons back out on the street . Just look at all the deaths by illegals who have been arrested just to be turned loose on society. Seems like we treat the crooks better than the law abiding citizens.
So true!
Look at what they have to deal with….
Nobody..
First of all, I’m not at all sure I believe the statistics used here. I think the article is incredibly biased against the police in America, as well. I believe if truth were really told, the numbers would be far lower. I think the last sentences of the article give away the bias: “This is how some of the lunatic police in America should behave. They should want to help, not hurt criminals. It’s all about rehabilitation.”
Ummm…NOT!
Ha! Did you get those numbers from Al Not-so-Sharpton?? Or Obama?
