    My estimate is that at least 60% of all police shootings are not justifiable and would be avoided in every developed country in the world.https://twitter.com/_JBrown00/status/883299598969835520 …

    They were probably justifiable. But whatever "fits" your agenda.

        Because a numbers estimate from Shaun King on a topic he is horribly biased about, matters.

        funny you think that you think reliable numbers can come from "often unreported and not investigated" incidents.

        that's my exact point: he can't quote tangible numbers bcuz police themselves don't keep up w/their numbers so OBVIOUSLY he has to estimate.

        Where'd you get that estimate. Why don't you go ride around with a cop in Chicago for a week and see what they go through.

        America has a ridiculous amount of police shootings. Can't remember the last time a NZ cop shot someone.

        That's cause NZ cops are trained to de-escalate situations & while they have access to a pistol, it's in a locked box in the car's boot. 1/

        Plus most dangerous thing @nzpolice carry is a taser & we aren't armed to teeth over here. Fewer guns+well trained cops=safe country. 2/2

        @_JBrown00 we don't have reliable numbers on the because police are rarely open to this research but we can make rough estimates

        US gun laws exacerbate the fact police enter situations fearing for their life w/ their training to "win a situation"

        Avoidable maybe. Avoidable and justifiable are different. If we value life we should go with avoidable.
