    What's to blame on this rise of Kkkops getting killed? Maybe because they are race soldiers? Racist? White supremist?
    Who knows? The one I do believe in is "you get back what you put out" karma is a bitch, and this trend will get worse the more aggressive and racist they get.

    This is a propaganda puff piece that is meant to make the police look like they are under attack.

    Some asshat in the article says "Our country has lost 458 people that voluntarily signed up to do a job, said Troy Anderson." He is trying to make it seem like they are military. Yo jackass everyone volunteers for a job, that's the definition of not being a slave.

    Now let's look at it in more detail, it says:

    The overall line of duty deaths are up 55%

    To make it look like people are just running around killing them but:

    Ambush-style murders of police officers are up more than 300% from 6% in 2020, to 19% in 2021

    Where are the raw numbers? Going from 1 to 4 is a 300% increase. Without the raw numbers it's hard to tell if the percentage is anything to be concerned about.

    Last year there was a 93% jump in officers being struck and killed while outside their vehicles

    Could easily be a training issue.

    COVID, contracted in the line of duty, accounted for the most officer deaths: 301

    Ok.
