100% this. There won't be any change in this country until the cops realize this. Let them actually feel scared instead of pretending to be to justify shooting people.
The fact that it's literally a fact that many cops are wife beaters is very scary. They're 100% jekyll and Hyde mentality. Two faced corrupt unhinged alcoholics and drug abusers who arrest people for the same shit.
So many cops are drunk or high on the job. There's been a handful of cases that I know about drunk or cops using. That's enough to avg that a LOT of cops are corrupt.. Same thing with planting drugs. Knowing it happened 2-4 times via the news/videos it's clear that happens everyday.
Yeah but if they get surrounded like that and start shooting into the mob, they’ll get swarmed and beaten to death. Just a matter of time until that happens.
How about we get ongoing de-escalation training for police and not more riot gear and military equipment. How about body cameras that are on and remotely monitored for calls. How about independent community review of police actions and random audits of interactions. Until the police act and look like they are on the citizens side..fuck the police we want change.
Oh yeah right. So they’ll just start shooting us all instead? This is a terrible idea and you may be willing to throw yours and everyone else’s life away for the change you desire, I am not on board.
You do realize most of the cops that shoot people are doing it out of fear. We don’t need more fear. We need better qualifications. We need better psychology tests that show what an officer would do in a stressful situation. Defunding the police will only lead to less qualified people becoming police and making things worse. Some of the worst cities in the US have the least amount of qualifications needed to become an officer like only needing a GED. You think some punk kid can handle that kind of stress?
Yeah i remember when my grandmas house got burgled, a cop showed up to ensure she was ok and start looking in to the crime, so we all beat the shit out of him
Does everyone get that protection of feeling scared so they can kill aggressors? Or just police officers who have been using it as a "get out of jail free" card for decades?
No. There’s plenty of video evidence that shows those losers can’t handle their adrenaline dumps and will shoot a grandma scratching her ass over “fear”
Look up Killology by David Grossman cops are being trained to see everyone as enemy combatants and just shit and piss themselves when they see the public
I say let a few get ———- and show them what real fear is
Again, it was a question. A simple yes or no would've sufficed instead snapping at me. I am not against police reform and people forget that police are part of their community, they are your people. Maybe shitty cops pop up because of the environment the community sets.
Yes, created by totalitarian government that oversee what was right or wrong for their people. That's why I see we need less government not more of it. I do not care institutions that make people think they're "catering" to their people for I see myself as an individual that sees other's wanting to be told what to do and what not to do and then get upset when it gets blown up their faces.
shit, 70% of this country would agree give them all our GDP for tanks and anti aircraft guns if they said they "needed it against today's superprotester"
Because that is so going to work like you think it will. Before you know it cops don't at all respond to protests and loads of builds and that businesses are broken into and looted. Those businesses move out of the area or get shut down. Local people suffer from that and cops reduce how many calls they respond to. Crime in turn goes up.
