    How many citizens did police shoot and kill last year? I think around 2200…

    Is this headline a bad thing? Yes. Is it some CRISIS OF GUNS IN MURICA like these comments saying? No.

      There’s also way more guns and kids than police. Even at 4 people per day, there are a lot of people that ignore the police problem.

      Its not a crisis, just think of how small the pile of 157 people would be compared to the pile of unintentional dead from other causes. So in an objective way, I agree of your assessment.
