>At least look up the stats if you are going to perpetuate the evil police narrative.

What did you mean by this? It isn't clear if you mean what you said or "the evil police's narrative."



> How many tens of thousands of innocent people did police kill that year?

You implied tens of thousands of innocent people are killed by police each year. The actual statistics say that police kill around 1000 people a year with no mention of guilt or innocence. Your implication is flat out wrong.

The media perpetuates an idea that police are evil, murderous bastards and everybody should hate them. It is false and dangerous rhetoric. Spreading it in ignorance makes you a "useful idiot". Arm yourself with knowledge. In many cases the media is flat out lying to your face.


It was rhetorical. Try reading my original post again.
