How many people do the police kill? That's one of the most-often asked questions received here at Cop Block. In just two years -- 2013 and 2014 -- police employees in America killed 2,432 individuals.
Fatal Encounters is the most thorough and rigorous in tracking these figures. They have already documented that over 8,000 people have been killed by police since the year 2000, and they estimate that they're not even half done combing through reports. You can help them in their efforts with a donation (they take Paypal and Bitcoin) or with research and fact-checking. FatalEncounters.org
It is clear that those who claim to "serve and protect" are the most violent gang in America. The only question that remains is what are you going to do about it?

Cop Block is a decentralized project supported by a diverse group of individuals united by their shared goal of police accountability. We believe that no one – not even those with badges – has extra rights. The failure to realize and act on that is to our detriment. By focusing the disinfecting light of transparency on aggressors we safeguard not just our rights but those of future generations.
