Another fun one is cops killed vs people cops kill.

2019 you had 48 cops killed during line-of-duty.

vs 1004 killed by cops.

Now avoiding everything else in this topic, avoiding for profit prisons and 13A and just so much more we havent even scratched the surface on... how can you even argue that cops are the ones in threat of danger.

For every cop killed 20 civilians died. Maybe the vast majority of those were active shootouts or something, but its still an absolutely absurd ratio.

This is a whole different topic of discussion, but we need to consider as a society really ensuring officers are ready to go into hostile situations or active danger and remain calm. Idk, like I said its a far far deeper discussion than I want to generate right now, but without really good reason there is no way we should be executing a thousand people without trial or literally anything other than the individual cops judgement.
