I don’t know about the ratio being 100:1, but You are right these are Classified police killings not murders...that said, also consider George Floyd’s death was on track to be swept under the rug as a Justified police Killing until the protests.
- fastball 6y agoConsidering the fact that 99% of people murdered by police are getting a lot of airtime right now, I think we can say that the ratio is closer to 100:1.
- throwaway_jobs 6y agoSo take Eric Gardner’s death in 2014, NYPD had him in a chokehold his last words “I can’t breathe”...justice dept refused to bring changes, I won’t get into right/wrong (murder/justified killing) but hell AG Barr sides against the justice dept.
- fastball 6y agoRight, you know Eric Gardner's name, which means that he is one of the people cops have killed that many people generally consider more of a murder. You add up all those people and the ratio is about 100:1.
