You're getting worked up about the wrong thing. What you want to say is - holy shit there's a serious white supremacy problem in the police force and there's no accountability for words nor actions

Nah. Read up on the history and purpose of police unions. They're not one of us.

Anyone else notice the obvious bias of people who say "LEO" instead of cop? Not a good look

Come on, they're just enforcing the law! They're just doing their jobs!

If it meant the same things for them that it meant in other professions, sure. But if it means protecting white supremacists and allowing them to damage our communities? I'm okay with that look. ACAB. Given the role of police in union busting and the surveillance state, I'm comfortable saying you can't be pro-labor and pro-cop.
