“According to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund, 38 cops have been shot dead in America this year. Balko further notes that this number includes ‘at least one suicide and two cases in which a cop was shot by another cop.’ The 2015 gun-related deaths of police, Balko relates, are among the least of any year from the last nearly 150 years of data. Meanwhile, the Washington Post reported on December 26 an assessment that police shot dead nearly 1,000 people this year, and Mapping Police Violence calculated that, through December 15, police killed, at least 1,152 people this year in America.”
