Most police officers do an amazing job at what they do: protecting and serving the American people. Despite this, there is a serious problem with some cops assuming that their badges grant them extra rights. Last year, police killed 1,100 Americans. The first five months of 2015 saw 476 deaths at the hands of American police, with over 1,100 predicted by the end of the year.
You may think that these numbers seem low, considering there are over 300 million Americans. But, when you consider the killing rate of our police officers in comparison with the law enforcement of other countries, it is very embarrassing.
Japanese police killed one person last year in a country with over 100 million citizens. Icelandic police only killed one person in its entire history. And, to top if off, American police have a murder rate worst than the homicide rates of the two most violent countries in the world.

There is a huge problem with lack of respect for laws in this country. Children being raised with no parents and not being taught morals and respect for life!
BS! That’s a crock, and you people know it!!
That’s because they are armed thank God
What about the “THUGS” – Back and White??? The majority of the police are dedicated to protect the population!!! There will be bad ones like in every job! They expose themselves every day to the possibility of getting kill for you and me – “Do Not forget this !!!
Maybe they need to be with the way people are today.
What do you expect the cops to do when they are facing armed Drug dealers and criminals. Cower. Obama refuses to disarm these people. King O wants to go after law abiding registered gun owners instead. He feels they are a threat to him.
So what would like them to do, just let the thugs take over? Hurry everyone cower in the corner & let the thugs steal, destroy, & murder! I’ll take 90% of our polices officers over a thug any day!
Checkout how many killings in Baltimore so far this year.almost 300 !!!
We have much more violent element in our country–therefore–Police have to be more violent to keep them in line–they have been shooting targets for the criminals with the criminals getting all the sympathy and controlled media support! Policeman have to resign over racism or poor innocent victim with a record a mile LONG!
That is because our politicians pander too the criminals, oh wait they are criminals also.sheese.
