Give us the number of people who are killed by the police for no good reason, please. Number per year. Remember that my number was "for all reasons", meaning your number will be a subset of mine. Minimalist can't post one such item per days as dearly as he would like to.
I don't have that number, but I'm sure it's very, very low.
But on those rare occasions when it happens, it gets tremendous amounts of news coverage, which can cause people to be fearful of the cops. Whether that fear is justified or not, it's a REAL fear.
For whatever it's worth, I'm definitely not in Minimalist's 'Fucking Cops' camp. I don't think the average officer starts his shift think, 'I sure hope I get to shoot someone today.'

If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.
