>A new study about police killings has confirmed what we already knew.
The study was conducted by the American Journal of Public Health and according to its findings, eight percent of homicides in the United States are committed by the police.
>Eight percent of all men killed in the U.S. are killed by cops,” Frank Edwards, a postdoctoral associate at Cornell University told Mic. “That’s huge, and that number is even higher in some places than others. That’s really striking, to think of police as a major source of homicide deaths. It’s a public health problem.”
No, full access to the study costs 24 dollars, but you probably didn't realize that and just read the abstract without questioning looking at the numbers and how they were derived.

This.
How can we allow one demographic to engage in so much barbarous behavior?
>It’s a public health problem Have you ever interacted with a nigger? They blow up with the slightest provocation. All it takes when interacting with cops is not acting like a dumbass and turning yourself into a thread, and you won't get shot by a cop.
Ryan Sanders
since when is 8% huge
Landon James
Incorrect. Black males make up ~40% judging from FBI crime statistics.
Lol reminds me of when feminists were pushing >1 in 4 homeless people are women! :O Think we're all more interested in the bigger percentage than the smaller. Also, legally is it a homicide if the police do it?
Easton Williams
despite only being 0.003% of the population..

Homecide simply means one person killing another, it does not mean murder.

>Also, legally is it a homicide if the police do it? Yes. Homicide just means someone was killed. There is justified and unjustified homicide; the latter is a crime, the former is not.

I lived in the ghetto with those monkeys for three years. It's either one of three things.
Pigs kill them I kill them Or they kill me
Those niggers don't give you a choice.
Austin Martinez

Nolan Young
Let's send them all back to Africa where it's safer.
Aiden Gray
Haha no user. That 8% is niggers and hillbillies with guns. None of them are decent people.
Joshua Brooks
Scihub it, spoonfed bootlicker faggot
Tyler Smith
This seems like a big number until you consider those 8% killed by cops were probably committing homicides.
Thomas Smith
Fuck off meme flag, OP should link that shit, it's no different than not archiving a nyt or wapo article.
Matthew Gutierrez
lazy cops. they should be doing 100% of the homicides.
This is insanity, 8 fucking percent from one group?! These people are subhumans.
Carter Gonzalez
>Homicide just means someone was killed. Specifically, it means someone was killed by another human. Someone being killed by a rock slide isn't homocide.
Justin Campbell
How many of these cops are niggers? Guaranteed 90% of unjustified police shootings are the goddamn niggers.
Carson Fisher
ha ha ha. whatever do you mean?
Mason Green
>We can do better, at least 15 to 20 percent better would be something to shoot for Hold my jenkum, we'll shoot 13 to 50!
William Carter
Now do malpractice deaths
Matthew Nelson
WTF! How do we let this happen? Something should be done about this RIGHT NOW!!!!
