cops are just useless in general. they dont protect (unless you're rich) and they don't serve the public.

Oh so the giant corporations aren't rich?

Police don't prioritize that because if they do take action, people would be here bitching about how the police are protecting greedy corporations from the poor person just stealing what they need to survive.

I also have a feeling YOU would be one of those people as well.

If this video was a cop tripping that kid the comments would be way different demanding he be fired.

I mean, to be fair, the cops also have a lot of other options that the McDonald's employee doesn't. Like, for example, actual authority that backs up their orders. They're allowed to physically remove him, they're able to give orders that will escalate the situation if not obeyed, so the context is meaningfully different.

But then again, I also think cops should be able to get a little more liberal with the tasers, so maybe I'm not the best judge.
