First of all I’m a mister, not a ma’am. Second of all, it’s a place to start and I never claimed otherwise.
Besides, accurate data is notoriously difficult to come by for many reasons including the fact that the main people who keep track of it are the same ones who conspire to cover as much of it up as possible.
The article says roughly 3 unjustified homicides a day, but with all the cop cover ups it could be several times that, so “hundreds if not thousands every year” is about as accurate an estimation of the number of needless shootings as you’re likely to get from anywhere 🤷
There was a Facebook post somewhere with the numbers and a tik tok of someone explaining why they are correct. These sources will make sense after you have enough hours of scrolling in the lemmy instance already provided to you.
With enough practice you will understand that we should just downvote and shun people who ask for sources. It saves so much time and helps to avoid understanding the world as it is.
Ma’am that’s not a source. I’m not saying I disagree, I just want to see the actual numbers

So you are saying I should just take your word for it ma’am?
I’m saying you got what you asked for and it’s clear that you’re not engaging in good faith, so you can fuck off.
So… you want to get coffee or something?

A Facebook post and a TikTok video?? As a source?! I’m satisfied!!
Okay good there you go.
