Schooling the Cops

You're more likely to die by lightning.

An average of 40 to 50 people per year die from lightening in the US. 
How do you define "more likely"??

Sorry, pre-coffee post. "Get hit by lightening" was probably what I mean. Or not. The brain disavows all knowledge of actions taken when it's not present.

I don't believe I used the word bad. I believe that many have the wrong motivation, wrong mind set. But then, that may be an unfortunate consequence of the occupation.

I'd ask what internet number but I really don't care.

The internet is awash with "bad cop" jibberish. I didn't say you said it. 

And I see you don't do hyperbole.

If, by "gibberish" you are referring to videos of police raping, pillaging, and murdering...then yes, it is.  How do you think the internet became awash with that?

If, by strawmanning, you think you can score points I have to say you've failed.

I'm not arguing with you, I'm openly mocking the statement.  Obviously, you caught that, lol.

Deadpan responses get deadpan replies.

So how are you trying to argue away that in other western countries, compared to their respective population, police shoot about 20 times less people than they do in the USA?

Where did I do that?

My impression is you constantly arguing the cop's corner. So you're obviously content with how they're trained and how they go about their jobs. A number of them obviously sufficiently trigger happy to leave up to 20 times the number of casualties in the streets as cops do in other western countries.

Glaringly obvious in comparison to Germany where only about 500 people have been shot and killed within the last 64 years. I guess the UK wouldn't come up with higher numbers but I didn't find the stats online.

Ah, you've been reading things I didn't type. That happens a lot.

You misunderstand, abaris, lol.  Sama here isn't actually taking or advocating for any position...not disputing facts or even pretending to present them.  Just trolling the shit out of the thread.
