    I want to compare apples to apples.

    2017 was a bad year for British cops, worse than average. We lost PC Keith Palmer in a terrorist attack. So that's a total of 1 cop killed, 1 more than most years in the last decade
    As for those killed by British cops there was a higher than average 7 last year. 4 were terrorists (including the killer of PC Palmer). 3 non-terrorists were killed, 2 armed people were shot while one died without being shot.

    So despite having 11 times the population of Maryland we had the same number killed. That's including the fact the majority of ours killed were terrorists. As I don't believe any of those shot in MD were terrorists then factoring for population in MD there are 25 killings for each 1 here on a per capita basis.

    Regarding Maryland I'm wondering which quasi-narco state you reckon it borders? Are you referring to Pennsylvania? Or Virginia? Because Maryland doesn't have any border with Mexico let alone a porous one. In fact Maryland is nearly 2000 miles away by road from the Mexican border.

    Which just leaves guns as an explanation. Which is what I've been saying all along.

    Mexico. You can travel freely between states. Hell most people travel across the freaken country just for a vacation.

    This is false. Over 60% of vacations are intrastate travel. Across country trips barely register as a stat. >90% of long distance trips are via personal vehicle and the median for that is under 200 miles.

    America doesn't just have a border between Mexico and Maryland, it has nearly two thousand miles by road of its own territory between them too.

    America is responsible for America, not Mexico.
