Do you understand that US police kills people at a rate thats totally unseen outside of dictatorships and bana republics? Not just black people - white people, asians, there is no demographic who's deathrate is acceptable for a developed nation.

Why is that? Either us police is out control, or you have some sort of mass-criminal-psycosis going on over there, and it stops at the canadian border.

You want to go case by case? Explain how can police kill a woman sleeping in her house. To me this is unbelievable. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna12...

Yes, I want you to go case by case, and understand what most of them are like, instead of picking just those that are examples of bad policing.

> Either us police is out control, or you have some sort of mass-criminal-psycosis going on over there,

Why not both? We do have police problems. We also have mass criminal psychosis. (Just look at the news recently...)
