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.

Look at what they’re up against…..THUGS!
If the united states is so violent WHY DOES EVERY ONE WANT TO COME HERE ? by the way un truth and action.org you sure are enjoying are freedom of the press.
Look what they have to deal with!! Without or military and our police force we the people are sitting ducks!!
they may be more violent but who ms
Let’s just get rid of all the cops. Things will be much better then. Or, we could just take away their guns. Yeah, that’ll work.
Well I don’t know what part of the USA this is all happening in but here in Arkansas we sort of know police officers have the responsibility to maintain order and discipline and expect them to do so. In other words mutual respect. Sort of works I think.
…gee, I can’t begin to understand why?
More liberal story telling??? See the facts. ….tell the truth people!!!
Perhaps that is so, BUT then we have a lot of very violent offenders in this country that do not follow or believe in the law and we also have the so called innocent citizens that have no respect for our laws and do not teach their kids to have it either. Sorry, but to me, the violence of lawbreakers needs be met with violence from the authorities and also long long times in prison and really big fines.
I don’t believe this!
