- ashwagary 5y agoNothing I said requires a statistic, it is common knowledge US police officers kill roughly 1000 civilians a year on average. It is also clear from investigative reporting that many police departments have a long history of colluding with local coroners to cover up many additional deaths. Colin Kaepernick didn't recently start a multimillion dollar fund to aid families of victims in getting secondary independent coroner/autopsy reports without reason. If the fact that this is necessary doesnt terrify you or the people in your community, then I don't know what to say.
- UberFly 5y agoReal statistics that aren't limited to your own jaundiced view of reality I mean.
- ashwagary 5y agoI haven't seen reliable polling data proving the parent's or my claim. Either of us could be right. Although, we also haven't seen tens of millions of people protest/petition to defund or reform intelligence services recently. Without definite data, the fact that we've seen that urgency around local police reform seems like a decent alternate public sentiment indicator.
