    I do know there is a large variation. But I am speaking on this one specific incident.

    And that is the issue — they also disagree. It doesn’t matter how you feel about this we need to be drilling in our youths head to COMPLY. Even if they disagree. Best case they are dealing with a good cop and the situation doesn’t escalate. Worse case they are dealing with a bad cop that is looking for a reason to escalate and not giving them one is the best way to fight the charge in court. Resisting is NEVER going to make the situation better.

    False. There are hundreds of reports of people complying and still being shot, innocent people in vehicles being shot, people that didn’t know they were dealing with police being shot, and police randomly shooting through walls.

    Did you pull this data from the same place of your last fabrication?

    Nobody is demanding wholesale changes in the system because of how many police were killed either. What’s your point?

    Furthermore an officer is 18x more likely to die from a black man than a black man is to die from an officer. You wanna try again?

    You have never heard of the Police database hosted by the Washington Post that provides every police shooing record since 2015?
    https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/investigations/police-shootings-database/

    Just this year alone we have 991 shot and killed by Police. So no, You don't have a right to assault a police officer just because you claim you are right.
    Hundreds try it every year and die proving this idiotic point.

    Yeah, he was placed under arrest and then he broke from custody and jumped in the car. I wonder why his mom told him not to do that...

    Yet from your hundreds of reports you can't provide even one?

    How about this one.
    https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/investigations/police-shootings-database/

    A complete database of every police shooting since 2015.

    What in gods name are you talking about? There were 62,000,000 interactions with the public by police. Out of all of those interactions we only have 26,000 ACCUSATIONS of excessive force. If we assume all of those are true (which we know empirically they’re not) then that means in 99.96% of all interactions there is not even an ACCUSATION of excessive force.

    How much closer to 100% do you expect them to get? Regardless, pretending this is some kind of epidemic of systemic racist hate by cops is patently absurd.

    When it comes to people dying I expect us to strive for 100%. Impossible but still what we should be working for. And your numbers don’t account for the number of people who never report.

    How many of your children would you be ok dying as long as they fit into that 0.04%

    That is the one that really made me say something if wrong with this system. Then they secretly allowed the officer to be rehired to collect his pension and file for lifetime disability benefits.

    Disgusting doesn’t even begin to cover it.

    So you acknowledge 100% is unattainable. Then what number is acceptable to you and more importantly, what system do you expect us to use that will produce superior numbers to the ones we already produce?

    Did you look up Daniel Shaver? Think that was a good example of policing?

    That's certainly one opinion. I happen to think that Daunte is currently lying in a bed largely of his own making. No, the cop shouldn't have mixed up her Taser with her firearm, and she's facing punishment for that, but if I were to assign blame for Daunte's death between the two, I'd put it at about 75% Daunte's fault and 25% Kim Potter's.

    But as you said 100% is unattainable. Those types of things are going to happen in any system. There are bad people in every profession. No matter what you do it is impossible to weed them all out.

    Any system you implement, point to or study will have examples like Shaver. So what do we do when it happens in the new system? Throw a fit and riot until we tear that system apart and start again?

    You can NOT get to 100%. It is NOT possible.

    Also is trying to fix that .04% even remotely worth the risk of everyone else’s safety if we do stupid things like defund or stop policing as Tlaib said.

    You asked for one example. Are you not even remembering your own posts? Would it help you remember if I just made up stats and called you a liar like you did with me earlier?

    The vast majority involve some level of aggression on the part of the suspect.

    Lets not ramble on and on away from the point. There are thousands upon thousands of stops made every year with compliance from the driver with no incidence at all. You provide one instance where an idiot shot a kid and now you want to act like its the norm.

    Not even close.

    You asked for ONE example. I hope you own a backhoe instead of renting as often as the goalposts are moved.

    Yup not surprised. Violent BLM mob has to be appeased. Any cop staying on the job is a fool.

    Thug culture idolizes criminality, encourages violence towards police, drug use, mistreatment of women, and other degenerate behavior. In an age where SJW-PC ideology bans the phrase 'Masters Degree' because its 'does widespread irreparable damage to the Black psyche' why are we not criticizing rap music and other thug culture elements especially when the suspect profile of every one of these incidents is identical? This isn't a race problem, its a culture problem.
