Self defense isn't murder (are you saying it shouldn't be this way?). Most of the tax money goes to health and human services. The majority of military spending are salaries and benefits.
The police on average fatally shoot about 25 people a week over the entire nation. So basically half of the states each week won't have a fatal shooting.
This doesn't account for justified or non-justified shootings, just the number of people killed, by firearm by the police.
Even if we start to include other methods that could result in death, the amount on a per year basis is less than 2,000.
Falling down the stairs kills from a range of 2,500 to 12,000 people in the US each year and it varies. That's more than all police related deaths in the country.
You are genuinely fucking stupid if you can't understand how rare it is for the police to shoot and kill someone in the country and that the vast majority are justified shootings breaks your little mind even more.
None of this is particularly hard to discover.
The police murder tons of people every week and get away with it under Qualified Immunity.
But I'll give you credit for being a consistently ignorant moron.

You really don't understand the legal system do you?

You really don't understand how to structure sentences or order predicates do you?
