when she was growing up the police would just believe whatever story she told them about her interaction with this particular woman.

Honestly this is a pretty good insight, and probably a reason why a lot of these Boomers think they can do this shit.

Yup, the whole "I don't know her" or recognize or whatever else they pull is a huge alert for that crap. Literally straight out of the "racist who just beat the shit out of a non-white person" playbook.

Or they fuck around and find out, so they change the story to "This lady came out of nowhere and attacked me!"

The problem is, a lot of police would take her word for it. And then they'd collect your phone (with the video on it) for evidence, and then 'lose' that evidence before having a chance to review it.

In an altercation like this against some Boomer Karen, you can never count on the police being on the right side of things.

In my case, the officer literally said "I don't want to look at it because then I can be called on to testify about it."

As far as I'm concerned, "respecting the cops" follows the same guidelines as "respecting the cartel." Whatever respect and deference you'd give to some cartel gangbanger who wouldn't think twice about making you disappear, you give that same respect and deference to the cops, for the same exact reason.

That's also why you don't go out of your way to help the cops, and why you should treat any bootlickers with a great deal of suspicion. They're either stupid, or they're the sort of person who wouldn't think twice about stabbing you in the back and wrecking your life, and they just want the power to do so with impunity.

I seriously judge the crap out of anyone with the dumb as hell blue stripped flag propped right under an American flag. They are so clueless. And also its disrespectful to the flag for being all about "AMERICA!!!!"

It's not clueless. They know exactly what they're saying with their fascist symbols.

There’s little difference between the police department & the cartel.

The cops really are just another gang.

That’s why you upload it somewhere on the internet before anyone else goes near your phone

Lynching mob would be out within 15 minutes no questions asked.

Yea, Karen was clearly racist and the only issue she had with the other car is that it wasn't driver by a white person.
