Hi,

>
Prince George County, Maryland has a population similar to San Jose, California – 800,000. In Prince George County between the years 1990 and 2000, the police shot 122 people and killed 47. Police also shot one dog. Seems like the police are kinder to dogs.

That means your police officers are killing approximately 32 people for every 1 killed by ours (only 2.8 dogs though)...

There is no reliable system to track police shootings in the United States. Such information is not available or given by the FBI.

Do you mean that incidents are not formally recorded, that statistics are not compiled or that the information is simply witheld from the public? I assume the latter is not the case.
