I read the article and have come to the conclusion that if we want to end fatal police shootings then all we need to do is remove guns from the hands of cops. After all aren't the British police armed with whistles instead of guns? England doesn't have a problem with police shootings do they???
Beside if a police officer is stabbed or shot isn' t that what they are paid for?
