Bahamas tells its citizens traveling to U.S.: Be careful
(CNN)The Bahamas' Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Immigration is warning its citizens traveling to the United States of "recent tensions in some American cities over shootings of young black males by police officers."
The government of the majority-black Caribbean nation emphasized in an statement Friday that its travelers should avoid crowds and demonstrations in the U.S. Young men, specifically, should "exercise extreme caution in affected cities in their interactions with the police ... Do not be confrontational and cooperate."
The warning comes ahead of the country's Independence Day on Monday, a public holiday when many Bahamians plan to travel to the United States.
The Bahamian travel advisory follows the fatal shootings of two African-American men earlier this week in separate incidents in Louisiana and Minnesota, and after five police officers were killed and seven others were wounded by a shooter who opened fire during a rally in Dallas.

After the shooting, Kinsey said he asked an officer why he was shot and he said “‘I don’t know.“’

Nevertheless, researchers at Johns Hopkins Univers it y
estimated that in 2015 there were 251,454 deaths from medical errors (roughly equal to the
population of Orlando, Florida or Chula Vista, California). Medical errors are the third leading
cause of death in the nation.
The risk of death from a doctor or nurse is 254 times greater than the risk of death from police use
of force.12

keep it up USA. The shitstorm coming.
Comparisons with assaults on police officers
Again, data of this sort are difficult to find. A conservative estimate, however, can be found within
the FBI Uniform Crime Report data. In 2014, the FBI collected data on officer assaults from about
66% of the nation’s 17,000 law enforcement agencies. Even though data from a third of law
enforcement agencies was absent, the data that was collected revealed that 48,315 assaults
occurred against law enforcement officers in 2014, resulting in 13,654 officers receiving an injury
requiring medical treatment.14
Of the assaults on officers, 1,950 involved a firearm and 951 involved a “cutting instrument” such
as a knife, sword, axe, etc. Another 6,803 assaults on officers involved “other dangerous weapons”
such as motor vehicles, clubs, metal pipes, shovels, etc. This means that in 2014, police officers
were assaulted 9,704 times with deadly weapons (an average of 27 per day).15 Remember, this is
an extremely conservative estimate with only 66% of police departments reporting data. (If the
same rate of assaults applies to the 34% of agencies that did not provide data, then the real national
total would be 14,703 deadly weapon assaults on officers in 2014, or 40 per day.) This number
also fails to count any incidents where an assailant used his hands and feet to beat an officer to the
point of serious permanent injury or death.
