Getting killed by police is a leading cause of death for young black U.S. men
- kasey_junk 7y agoThe HN title doesn’t match the article title which is less controversial. Even with the article title it’s click baity. I’m 100% on board for dearming the American police force, if only for its racist undertones but this study shows a) black men are getting dreadful health care, mental health care & crime prevention but also b) American cops are killing lots of people they shouldn’t. We don’t need Bad headlines yo point that put.

- RickJWagner 7y agoI don't think disarming cops will work-- there are just too many violent criminals. Cops get hurt enough as is. Maybe see how it works in one city. I imagine the policy will be quickly revoked.
