Honestly, I didn't tell it to add that gun to the picture, it did that on its own!

you're quite right, every single one of them is actively trying to kill each and every one of us. To consider any other possibility would be hysterical.

I see what you did there[1]

... Police in the united states have more than a century of flagrant misconduct under their belts. They protect their own, they almost never face consequences for killing people, they are frequently corrupt, they are frequently biased.

Here's a couple fun examples:

To be fair, this is Derbyshire in England. They are often a bit overkeen but they are not exactly Homan Square.

I think there have been less than two dozen police involved killings in the whole of the UK in the last six years, and that's in a population of seventy million people.

It's about 2% of the equivalent US figure (which averages 800 per year in 340 million people)

It doesn't make much difference if you perform similar practices in a different country. UK police are just like American police.

Apart from the bit about killing people, for the most part.

who are exactly the same as the Russki police, right? Bloody hell...

This is the UK, our cops don't even carry guns.

Quite a few actually do.

You could have looked it up before commenting. <5% is hardly any sort of "oh quite a few actually do". That rate pretty much halves in Scotland, with N.Ireland being a significant outlier as it has different rules.

UK police are decent at avoiding escalation as opposed to the US where they often _are_ the escalation. In England and Wales 24/25, two people died by being shot by the police. TWO. Ten year average is THREE.
