Sadly, the trend of fatal police shootings in the United States seems to only be increasing, with a total 995 civilians having been shot, 117 of whom were Black, as of December 2021. In 2020, there were 1,021 fatal police shootings, and in 2019 there were 999 fatal shootings. Additionally, the rate of fatal police shootings among Black Americans was much higher than that for any other ethnicity, standing at 38 fatal shootings per million of the population as of January 2022.

The police are more a danger to us than they are a benefit. It's time to defund and fire them all. There is no reforming tyrants.

Time to replace them with something else and start looking after our own people so people aren't compelled to commit crimes.

"Time to replace them with something else and start looking after our own people so people aren't compelled to commit crimes."

Only one way to do that. Arm every man and woman. You see someone breaking into your house or someone else's Shoot to Kill. You see someone trying to steal your or someone else's car Shoot to Kill. You see someone robbing a store Shoot to Kill. You see anyone doing any criminal act Shoot to Kill. That will put a stop to crime.
