Really?? You got some hard numbers to back that up or are you basing this assumption on what you read on the internet? Time to put up or shut up. Nothing less then hard verifiable numbers on the number of shootings nationwide by LE, the number of shootings nationwide by civilians, a breakdown of the training of everyone involved and hard numbers that show that LE was held to a laxer standard then civilians will suffice.
The days of people coming on here and spewing things they can't prove in these discussions are over. If you want to have any credibility, you'll prove this twofold problem exists or you'll withdraw your statement.
There it is, the gauntlet has been thrown down.

What we've really seen in the last few years that police are given carte blanche to use deadly force without any real reason. This is a twofold problem:
1. poor training.
2. held to a much laxer standard when using deadly force than Joe Schmoe.
