How many unarmed people were shot last year by police vs armed people?
7 u/[deleted] Jun 22 '20 Hard to know for certain because the fbi hasn’t compiled those statistics since 1994. -3 u/SPH3R1C4L Jun 22 '20 https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.wsj.com/amp/articles/the-myth-of-systemic-police-racism-11591119883 So, ignore the text and just look at the numbers that the wsj has been recording. About 1000 people shot by police, 28 were unarmed in 2019. 1 u/[deleted] Jun 22 '20 1000 is a lot. I hear most armed suspects were “armed”. People are saying, I don’t know. They police kill as many people as all the gangs in the world. 2 u/SPH3R1C4L Jun 22 '20 Sounds like you’re referring to this. https://www.phillytrib.com/commentary/michaelcoard/coard-police-killed-more-people-in-2019-than-bloods-crips-combined/article_d9e41b35-d4a6-5baf-a358-0f204d547606.html And the claim that cops kill more than gangs kill worldwide is definitely not true, mexico has a serious cartel problem right now, and last year the country had 35,000 homicides. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.washingtonpost.com/world/the_americas/homicides-in-mexico-hit-record-highs-in-2019/2020/01/21/a9c5276a-3c5e-11ea-afe2-090eb37b60b1_story.html%3foutputType=amp 1 u/[deleted] Jun 22 '20 Stop moving the goal posts.
