Nothing I said requires a statistic, it is common knowledge US police officers kill roughly 1000 civilians a year on average.

It is also clear from investigative reporting that many police departments have a long history of colluding with local coroners to cover up many additional deaths.

Colin Kaepernick didn't recently start a multimillion dollar fund to aid families of victims in getting secondary independent coroner/autopsy reports without reason.

If the fact that this is necessary doesnt terrify you or the people in your community, then I don't know what to say.

Real statistics that aren't limited to your own jaundiced view of reality I mean.

I haven't seen reliable polling data proving the parent's or my claim. Either of us could be right.

Although, we also haven't seen tens of millions of people protest/petition to defund or reform intelligence services recently.

Without definite data, the fact that we've seen that urgency around local police reform seems like a decent alternate public sentiment indicator.
