Yeah as a young male living in a urban area being killed by the police is a leading likely cause of death for me.

How did you conclude this? Murders (non police) and police shooting numbers are an order of magnitude different.

I don’t get it, I’m over 30x more likely to die in a car accident or from an overdose, and at least 10x from several other things.

and they keep killing all of us, at a rate orders of magnitude more frequent than any other first world nation.https://www.latimes.com/science/story/2019-08-15/police-shootings-are-a-leading-cause-of-death-for-black-men …1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

I sort of drive a lot. Not in Sf much, but when I do I think it compensates since they are longer trips. Still, per this thread, I don’t think you need to drive in order to die in a car accident. Does this count as a car accident?

Do carefully note how the language I used "a leading cause of death" rather than "the leading cause of death" might effect your expectations for my references and discussions.

I know, that’s why I think this is misleading, how many other causes of death are there total? How many of the total can be qualified as “leading”?

I mean I think a better statistic would be comparing pee capita police killings against other first world countries by capita? For instance uk a country ten times our size as a city kills orders of magnitude fewer people than sf does.

Still, you it seems you are far more likely to die in a car crash no matter where you are.

Or being hit by a bus, if a place is more eco conscious.
