1,208[i] people were killed by the cops in America in 2015. The number was 1,111[ii] in 2014. With 624[iii] killed so far in 2016, we're on track for 1,168 by the end of the year. Based on an average of 1,160 people killed by police per year in America, let's look at your odds of being killed by a cop relative to some other common (and not-so-common) things that might kill you.

Living in America...

1. You're 1.8 times more likely to be killed by a cop than by the heat.
2. You're 20 times more likely to be killed by a cop than by a bee, wasp, or hornet
3. You're 24 times more likely to be killed by a cop than by lightning.
4. You're 41 times more likely to be killed by a cop than by a dog.

9. You're 264 times more likely to be killed by a cop than by an amusement park ride.
10. You're 387 times more likely to be killed by a cop than by a shark, bear, or alligator.

You're 53 times more likely to be killed by a cop than by a terrorist attack.

This right here is why I don't buy into this Mooslim terrorism fear that has taken hold of the U.S. If you are going to give into fear at least make it a reasonable one.

Wow! Thanks for posting. I feel safer walking the streets now.

Oh. Thought just came to mind. Your statistics might be wrong because they don't account for if you have white or black skin.

[RandallFan]

They don't account if you are a mouthy felon.

[TheTexan]

They don't account if you are a mouthy felon.

Yes, mouthy felons are more likely, to get killed by cops

Or if you're black.

Neither of which,, am I

Are you suggesting that heat, bees, wasps, hornets, lightning, dogs, terrorists, spiders, fireworks, venomous snakes, amusement park rides, sharks, bears and alligators might be racists?

Can you categorically deny the possibility, Mr. Banana?

Now, what are the numbers if you're poor?

poor, mentally handicapped, physically handicapped, not dominant race...
all good reasons for a state sanctioned bully with supremacist sympathies to inflict a beat down

some of those that work forces... are the same that burn crosses

7.You're 166 times more likely to be killed by a cop than by fireworks.

Interesting that fireworks are illegal in some states because they are dangerous.

Harvard study says whites are actually more likely to be shot.

My neighbor says his dog is racist because he only barks at our UPS guy(black). Oddly enough, the dog is black, too. I've stated calling him Clayton Bigsby.

That is why there is the Chris Rock video " How to not get beat by police ".

From my personal experience , yes , sharks , snakes , bears and gators are racist . They mostly bite white people .

[oyarde]

Now, what are the numbers if you're poor?

Higher , because you are more likely to be driving around smoking , drinking with expired , suspended tags and no insurance. THis increases the chance of contact which in turn increases death rate.

Again , Chris Rock video ( 4 minutes ) , " How to not get your ass kicked by police " . ,lol , it is racist , funny and true.

[pcosmar]

From my personal experience , yes , sharks , snakes , bears and gators are racist . They mostly bite white people .

Never been bitten by any,, but have eaten all.

though bear must be cooked right and few are able.

You need new neighbors.
