Why do American police shoot people so much...

Why do American police shoot people so much? I know 99% of the time it's justified but how do they get into those situations so much?

Because theyre poorly trained high school dropouts

because they have to deal with americans who are probably carrying especially in low income neighborhoods

Assumption that everyone had a gun and Americans are retards that think the best way to not get caught for whatever is to shoot at the police. Also extremely poor training that discourages de-escalation (a cop in WV recently got fired for successfully de-escalating a situation instead of shooting)

I think it's part of the making of a police state, here people can get away with literally assaulting the police. In the USA the police are there to inspire terror and they do their job well, that's why they have no qualms regarding shooting

Pigs run into a LOT of situations seeing the size of the country.

99% of the time it goes smoothly, and the people are taken to jail with little to no serious resistance.

The 1% of time when stuff does happen the cops have to put their life above that of the person they are arresting. Evil still 99% of this 1% stuff sorts itself out with no major injuries.

But the only cases that make news are the .01% of times that people get legitimately hurt when cops arrest them.

>being able to assault cops is a good thing
Mexicans are a mysterious people

Because we let them get away with literal murder so they have no reason not to pull their gun whenever they feel the least bit threatened.

Because it multiethnic melting pot so you can't trust your fellow citizen.

lots of shit areas

Cops are fucking assholes, but the lowest of the US are fucking nuts, so I can see where they're coming from, I guess.

There weren't any moral judgements in my words, I was merely stating a fact. Don't put words in my mouth

The issue isn't that the shootings happen it's that police chiefs and local governments vehemently defend any shooting that happens regardless of how abhorrent it is.

Jury found that guy not guilty, kek.

Imagine your neighborhood being patrolled by this freak. Like seriously this state is ~90% white if you ignore asians.

This, Finn bro gets it.

Come visit any low income urban area in America and then you will truly understand.

>don't tread on me
>is a police officer, the crystallization of state violence

the irony

Cops are allowed to kill people if doing so is "consistent with their police training" apparently.

who is this and why is he a freak?

Uh... if you are worried about Asians, I think there is something wrong with you.
Anyways, not like you could do anything to a built, Black man. You'd whimper off like a little bitch.

>be police
>don't tread on me

Is this nigger serious?

How has no one commented on his name yet?

Dindu nuffins, basically

>a cop in WV recently got fired for successfully de-escalating a situation instead of shooting
Source? I believe it, but I'd like to read about it.

I read that, got fire for putting people in danger even though the guy didn't had a gun.

Basically there is an institutional incentive to just execute people instead of attempting de-escalate.

All the criminals up here are druggies. They aren't built at all.

there's like 326 million burgers, that's why

shit training with high school dropouts for what probably is a very stressful job.

shit's fucked

I don't know. My guess would be they're not well-educated, trigger-happy, possibly racist but also panic when they have to go to bad neighbourhoods

>Mader, who is white, made the determination that Williams did not pose an immediate threat to him or fellow officers, even though he was holding a gun. Mader began trying to talk Williams down.
>But amid Mader’s attempts to convince Williams to drop the weapon, two veteran officers arrived on the scene and, almost immediately, shot and killed Williams.

This has to be parody.

What even are qualifications to be a cop is US?
Seeing they have fat fucks as cops it cant have much physical qualifications.
Here it is very strict qualification to be one with long training. Not to mention every shot fired whether warranted (or not) is investigated per chance it was unnecessary use of lethal force.
Cop could get in trouble if it was deemed unnecessary so some triggerhappy gunslinger is not gonna make it.

god what the fuck

What the fuck is wrong with Americans?

What the fuck, i thought american police meme was just a banter

Cops are often war veterans, are trained to be constantly vigilant for people trying to kill them (which would normally be a sign of mental illness) and guns are commonplace as you know.

From the age of 11 onward I knew not to reach into my pockets when the filth was around.

They aint black

Then why does scotland suck more then england

In all my years on Jow Forums I have never ever seen this post, amazing, the first foreigner to say it

How many of you euro's would shoot and kill gypsies if you could get away with it?

I remember reading that. It exemplifies the toxic police culture in America. Next time someone asks you why you think cops are pigs, just show them that and answer "because the ones who are good get forced out or just don't get promoted"
