[quote=Anonymous][quote]Funny how the same conservatives who think it's the biggest insult in the world to call liberals "snowflakes" are also the same ones saying "well what do you expect the police to do when people rightfully protest the fact that they murder with impunity, THEIR JOBS?!"

Yes snowflake, that's exactly what we expect you to do. Oh no, people marching with signs TRIGGERED you so much you can't do your job anymore? Sounds like something a beta cuck would say.[/quote]

No one is saying that the police are "triggered".  And the police unions have protected violent and unfit officers for too long.  But being a police officer is hard, dangerous work dealing on a regular basis with both the crazy and the venal---people the rest of us reasonably want to be sheltered from.  They are now being expected to have perfect judgment in every situation---no matter how chaotic the situation or how little time there is to make a split-second life or death decision.  And then, after spending 2020 being treated with contempt by liberals, they  watched the right-wing nutjob mob on January 6th (many of whom were also current or former LEOs) brutally attack the Capitol and DC police officers who were just there to do their jobs and saw the Republican politicians who try to claim the law & order mantle pretend that January 6th wasn't any big deal.   
Then---let's pivot back left---we have a city council that wants only to "catch and release" violent predators back into our communities.

If you are a reasonable, middle of the road human who got into policing because you actually wanted to help people and be of service in your community---wanting to quit right now is entirely rational behavior.   [/quote]
