Norway's police only fired two bullets last year... and no one was killed

In the first 24 days of 2015, US police shot and killed 59 people, which is more than police in England and Wales did in the last 24 years (55).

With the difference in populations taken into account, US citizens are still around 100 times more likely to be shot by police than British citizens are.
