I ask you again would you rather get into a pub brawl or get gunned down simply for being in the wrong place at the wrong time? THAT is the difference.
False Dichotomy.

I like how you didn't say a word about the Bloomberg article.

As I said earlier what's classified as violent is far different in the UK than in the US
Evidence please? Interesting claim you keep repeating.
At the end of the day I don't think Officers should carry guns unless responding to a call. So many trigger happy cops and more of these kids are going to end up dead.

It's fairly common knowledge.
In the UK any sexual offense is considered a violent crime unlike the US where rape is the only sexual offense that is considered violent.
The UK also considers any form of domestic violence including non-sexual emotional or financial abuse, threats, physical force, sexual assault and stalking to be a violent crime. It's not counted as a violent crime in the U.S.
They also consider purse snatching and bicycle theft to be violent crimes.

The fact remains that the vast majority of police shootings are justified.
