Statistic all Philadelphians should be made aware of. Last year there were 34 cases where police fired at civilians from 6300 officers. A rate of 0.539% of the population of police. Compared to civilians which is 2200/1579000 which is 0.139%. Police by statistics in Philadelphia are more violent than Philadelphians and they incite increased violence. That the rate of 500 murders in Philadelphia being the highest in a decade isnt as bad as the highest rate of police firearm violence in nearly a decade. These numbers compared tell us that police are more dangerous for our community than civilians with firearms. That the Inquirer's non stop obsession with homicides and gun violence rates increasing incites and fuels increased funding for those who are increasing the rate of violence in Philadelphia. The cities obsessions with funding paramilitary officials to incite violence in Philadelphia needs to end. The numbers tell us they are more violent than the average person and are 4x more likely to shoot the people than than the people are to shoot anybody.

And this is not a 1 year outlier. This big of a difference between the rates of police violence and civilian violence is normal. Every year since the Philadelphia Police Department has formed, they have shot civilians at higher rates than civilians have shot at anybody.

Today! Teachers are delivering signatures at 3rd and Race at 4pm: https://twitter.com/hannahsassaman/status/1360058708307369984?s=19

And then a rally at Dilworth at 5pm in honor of Christan Hall and all those killed by police this year.

Continuing story about yesterday's statistics. Leaving the United States you wont find many places where Police are as violent as Philadelphia Police. And Philadelphia is near the average for the US with Police involved shootings making the United States arguably the most authoritarian nation in the world by a longshot if violent policing is your primary unit of measurement.
