There are around 313 million people living in the US. Every year, according to ABC news, about 360 people are killed by the police. The odds of being killed by a cop in the US are about 1 in 870,000.

as a comparison. around 550 people die shopping every Black Friday. Yes, you have a better chance of being killed going to Walmart on black Friday to get that good deal than you do of being killed by a cop.
