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.

It is pretty easy to argue. There are roughly 800,000 sworn law enforcement officers in the United States. That means law enforcement officers are killed by civilians at a rate of 0.00625%. There are roughly 329,000,000 civilians in the United States. That means civilians are killed by officers at a rate of 0.0003%. Law enforcement officers have a ~20 times higher chance of being killed by civilians than civilians have of being killed by law enforcement.
