Are you suggesting that police in the US currently shoot the right number of people for the right reasons?

What's your angle here? You really seem keen to not have people discuss this particular issue.

Eliminate the police. Not kill. As in no longer exists.

I'm pretty sure I'll be fine. Not sure about the rest of you.

Strawmanning? I'm saying that rationality wouldn't be a bad idea. So far I'm seeing people buying into media hype about a created "problem" that is being blown out of proportion. 

And I will never, ever, tell anyone to shut up, too many times the statements are in my favor.

The easiest way to end shootings is for the NRA to grow the fuck up.

Sorry, but from what I've seen the grown-ups with guns are the biggest problem. They think the world of themselves, despite obvious problems to the contrary.

Lol, that's not what that link says, but good try.

And even if it was true, so what? How many innocent people killed by police is acceptable to you?

That's your opinion. I think we disagree on the severity of the issue - and in any case, we're all free to choose our own battles.
