Just crunching some numbers for another forum...
So, lets look:
Assume a baseline of 450 people per year killed by one of the 845,000 active duty cops that carry weapons as of 2010
.05 %
And 14748 murders in 2010 committed by members of a 330,000,000 national population in 2010.
.004%
That is a 12.7 times greater chance of being killed by cop than a random criminal.
Now, granted, many of that 450 may have been legitimate "bad guys".
But the fact is, we really don't know, cops, even though required to by federal law, ignore reporting requirements for incidents where one of us mundanes gets killed.
