It’s sad that people this troubled don’t have access to the mental health services they so desperately need.

I resent police because they essentially protect criminals from their victims or from vigilantes acting on the behalf of those victims.

For example- if I observed a guy was breaking into my neighbor’s car, and I sneaked up behind him and hit him over the head with a baseball bat, and he was left with debilitating brain injuries from that - the police would put a lot MORE effort into finding and charging me with assaulting or attempting to murder him than they ever would’ve trying to pursue him for breaking into a car. Or let’s say I was out walking my dogs and I see a man in the process of raping a woman, who’s pleading for help. If I walked up and shot that guy in the head, then kept on walking - the police would search endlessly for me, so they could charge me with murder.

Vigilantism has its own deterrent factor IF it’s allowed to happen without interference. Police interfere with that deterrence. As a result, we live in fear of both criminals AND the police.


That’s why I dislike cops. Because they protect criminals from people like me.

Oh you will eventually. Pretty much everyone has.

This may be the most inaccurate post ever. It isn’t even a good try.

Get out more. Don't hide in your house.

I was out during your Covid lockdown. That hasn’t changed. Stay in your lane Karen.

Were you "essential to the covid effort" herr gestapo? Say that in the Ralph Fiennes nazi voice.

You’ve desensitized everyone to Nazi and gestapo. They’re just words now. Nice work. No one cares. Good luck in therapy.

Funny, just come across this one. Innocent person, waiting for Lyft ride, outside of his place of employment, son of a retired police captain, no criminal record at all.

Go on thinking it's "just a few bad apples" when it's 95% of them are bad now. Thousands upon thousands of videos like this each year now. Imagine how many are not caught on video.

There's about 700,000 police officers in the US. So, yeah, seems like a few bad apples. Otherwise, there would be 100,000s of videos.

Abolish ICE.

#BlackLivesMatter

Law abiding Black people that live in high crime areas in Democrat run cities welcome a larger law enforcement presence.

Sure.

Police are a leech on every municipality, county, state and federal budget. The tiny crime free small town I'm from blows sometime like $1.5 million annually on a dozen cops, trucks, and a couple of brass (who do literally nothing). Most days there are just a handful of 911 calls, so they're idle all day just sitting, driving in circles, and pretending to "protect" the public school buildings. The whole thing is a fear-mongering scam. A complete waste of money going to freeloading low class cronies who sit on their asses all day until they can retire after 25 years with generous pensions. They're not heroes. When crap hits the fan the average cop will run the other way or make things worse because they're so damn inept.
