Before clicking on that link, guess how many people in the US are killed by police each year. Remember, this includes justified/self-defense kills, not just bad shootings. In a large country with an armed populous.
I thought they kill more, but only because of your comment, without that reminder I probably would assumed less, about two–three times less than the page shows
Do they murder people? Ours murder a lot of people.

How does the actual number compare to your guess?
Holy shit. I thought like 80 might be expected for a 350 million population

They do! Often.
China isn’t listed, but we couldn’t get reliable numbers from them anyway. China counts as a “wealthy” nation, no doubt. Also, France isn’t listed.
I suspect the U.S. number is too low, as well. We all know our cops cover for each other and lie constantly.
