Number of people killed by the police, US.v UK.

[Ace_on_the_Turn]

In March of 2015 police in the US killed more than 100 people. In the UK police have killed less 100 people in total since 1900.

There are many factors that can explain a discrepancy in the numbers between the US and the UK, but that wide of a discrepancy is hard to justify.

Looking purely at numbers, of course there will be a huge difference.

That doesn't take into account the RATE at which these things happen, cultural differences, rates of police armament, or countless other variables.

Oh, and where is the SOURCE? Methinks some one is intentionally being intellectually dishonest in order to stir up trouble.

Yes, we all know it's crowd-sourced. If you think that number is incorrect, please post a citation. It's easy to attack the messenger and not the message.
