The following statistics seem impossible to believe. While I wonder how accurately the UK has been tracking these numbers historically, the enormous spread seems much too large to ignore, and is a national embarrassment that should be dealt with immediately.

From the Free Thought Project:

A new report by ThinkProgress.com unearthed disturbing figures when it came to the number of police-related deaths that occurred in America in the month of March alone.

Just last month, in the 31 days of March, police in the United States killed more people than the UK did in the entire 20th century. In fact, it was twice as many; police in the UK only killed 52 people during that 100 year period.

According to the report by ThinkProgess, in March alone, 111 people died during police encounters — 36 more than the previous month.

The only remaining question, Robert, is what are we going to do about it?

I think we should begin imposing a tax upon our municipalities for every new badge which they deploy on our streets. SELECTIVE TARGETING – At least if we control their numbers, we can limit the extent of damage they can inflict on a daily basis.

And there’s something appealing about a war of attrition, where the bad guys are forced to wear uniforms and drive marked cars, and the good guys get to snipe from inside the treeline, guerilla style. Considering the outcome of Viet Nam, it would be a fitting turn of play; that the American liberty community should get to turn those VC tactics back against a communist regime….
