Police brutality is a Bad Thing. There is also much lower hanging fruit in terms of saving lives and improving the world. About 1,000 people die in the US each year through encounters with the police. Over 400,000 people die in Africa each year from Malaria and we have very effective tools for combating it[1]. Police brutality is a big issue but the current media attention doesn't make "boring" causes less important…

The websites not loading, I assume because it’s #1 on HN right now. If you want help with server costs maybe setup a fund me/patron?
There are people I would much rather that money go to than me. I will upgrade the server now though

The number of people that die is only a subset of the total number of victims of police brutality. Besides that, the topic is broader than just the number of deaths. The police represent the state and thus represent the escalating willingness of the state to abuse it's citizens.
We can all rest easy, someone made a website.
So grateful for everything you have done. Please list at length here what gives you the right to shit on efforts of others.
1) brutality. Definition? 2) are the videos edited, how to prevent manipulation 3) the law should judge, not a pass-by filmer 4) what comes around goes around

2. There is so much more to it than just the number of people who have died. Entire populations live in fear of contacts with the police.
Can you also add all the times cops are abused and murdered on the job, trying to protect innocent people? Thanks.
How does the validation of the stories work ? I hope it will not end up as the next place to fuel unnecessary violence like in Toronto.
