The Ferguson incident has exposed the underbelly of the United States and now everyone is starting to pay attention that there is a higher risk of being killed by police even when they chase or shoot at people who need not be you. The risk is 800% greater that you will be killed by POLICE rather than a terrorist. The Economist has reported the death by police so far are ZERO in Japan and Britain, 8 in Germany and 409 in America.

It is time for the LEO's to give up their side arm and rely on taser and pepper spray only.

I assume at least 50% would quit.
Deletethat's because the terrorists aren't even trying. Killing lots of people is really easy.
ReplyDeleteAt the same time, Police are more likely to be killed in traffic accidents than in gun fights. It's an interesting statistical quirk, but not a reason to formulate policy.
