The police doing their job well should not be news, but it is. That's something to SMH about.

Truly vile

it's not vile at all, i noticed you never said that those 1000 people were innocent? i'm sure 99% of them were not innocent at all, and being unarmed doesn't mean anything, people can be life-threatening without having a gun.

If you're sure 99% are guilty then thats fine, but to give examples; 1000 is about two thirds of the number of US troops killed in Iraq since 2009 and 102 a year is more then 8 every month, two a week, again if you think that is acceptable then there is clearly nothing I can say to convince you otherwise.

There are a minority of trigger happy cops in the US who have abused their power or been negligent of their duties.
I can kind of understand them being twitchy over there with gun crime what it is.They will obviously be thinking they may not get home to their families on every call out they get.It is unfortunatley how things have evolved and i can't see much changing while guns are so easily accessible to thugs and criminals.No matter how well trained a cop is.They need to be ready to react with lethal force at any given moment.Some of them don't have the nerve to hold back when they should.

Yes they need out support and not silly pop stars attacking them

Lesbians gravitate towards Prison Officers jobs in womens prisons.

Paedophiles gravitate towards working in Childrens Homes.

Psychopaths gravitate towards joining ISIS and other terrorist groups.

And psychologically damaged wrecks and insignificant weeds who were bullied at school or who hate the world and it's dog for other reasons gravitate towards ALL positions of authority and power, as do RACISTS - and those positions are usually within the Police Force, both here and in the USA.

Obviously, these vermin are in a minority, but just as obviously, with the USA being infinitely larger than the UK, that 'minority' is very sizeable.

The more sizeable the minority, the greater the incidents of these 'Rogue Cops' pursuing their own twisted agenda.

The fact that in the USA, cops carry guns, means that these 'greater incidents' usually involve someone being 'executed' by some of this 'sizeable minority' of 'rogue cops' as a result of that personal and covert 'twisted agenda', when other non-lethal options are available.

There are just too many cases of 'Execution By Rogue Cop' for the above to be disputed - in my opinion.

YES - the great majority of Cops both here and in The USA ARE honest, decent, law abiding people, and YES, they DO deserve our support.

But that does not alter the very real FACT that TOO MANY rogue cops are quite simply getting away with MURDER.

In my opinion, of course.
