An Epidemic of Isolated Incidents

Radley Balko of Cato, who has written extensively on the increasing militarization of police forces in the USA, and the large number of botched police raids, has created an informative, interactive map of his data on this subject. It is another interesting use of a map based on the Google map service. Click on each pin to read the info about that incident, and use the navigation tools at the top left as needed to move around the map. Very interesting.
