That gives a total of full- and part-time employees with general arrest powers of about 810,000 in 2008. Re-do your math. Subtract the meter maids. 
Problem: Bad cops kill black people.
Solution: Kill good cops that didn't do a fucking thing wrong and will never see their families again. How does this help? All this does is get people ramped up for a race war. There should be no race war. Most white and black people get along great. A few fuckheads screw it up. I say yes sir and yes ma'am to both black and white people. I hold the door for anyone regardless of their color or how they are dressed. Now I am getting concerned about being attacked because I am white. I have other things to worry about. Fuck this shit! Is there a real problem? Fucking A! Is killing random people the answer? If you think so then please go hang yourself. RE: Another Police Shooting

You're worried about being attacked because you're white? LOL....really? Do you live in the ghetto.....do you dress up like a police officer from time to time, just for shits and giggles? White people have long feared that black people would kill them for being white. It's a fear that never really seems to materialize. If you actually do fear that, I doubt that it cropped up in relation to recent events.......
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Second, when you're comparing the actual numbers, say multiple hundreds of people killed by cops in the US compared to, say, nine in China with comparable numbers of law enforcement, thousands of per cents are actual, real numbers. That I have to explain that is effing ridiculous.
Nolite te bastardes carborundorum.
If a white cop unjustly murders a black person then put him in a jail cell with someone that looks like this.

I certainly don't want it to and will have no part in it. There is too much anger out there. Problems need to be solved without killing people.
Escalate to killing you, because you're white?
