Another child murdered.
I will not shed a single tear for when cops get shot and killed.
US cops really have stored up an incredible amount of badwill, haven't they? Now, I can't help but see Nolan's Batman film (whichever the one is with cops in tunnels), Brooklyn 99 and others as straight up copaganda. Just zero sympathy. The balance will shift at some point, it has to.
To be fair Brooklyn 99 dunks on cops. Like a lot.
Final. season was really interesting I that regard. Real cop propaganda is The Rookie. It is shameless.
The final season was less humorous about it. But even in the earlier seasons, the vast majority of cops outside of the 99 are incompetent, corrupt, or both. Comparatively, Wuntch is one of the least bad in the force.
Law & Order
Blue Bloods is the worst of them. Flat out abusing people in custody followed by a friendly family Sunday dinner.
Yeah I knew a cop who can't stand that show because of how blunt it's propaganda, pro-police violence, and anti-civil rights the show is.
Most depictions of LE in action movies are copoganda. I mean, shit: the Dirty Harry/ Legal Weapon trope of cops needing to sidestep the rules is so fucked when you think about it
3rd Batman movie, the one that made even less sense than a superhero movie normally makes.
The entire plan depends on a fusion reactor acting like a fission bomb that Bane didn't even know was down there, Blackgate being moved within city limits after the events of the second movie for no clear reason, and a letter that again no one knew existed while the plan was being carried out.
Also if he broke Batman's back why not just kill him? Why give him a chance to escape?
Also if he broke Batman’s back why not just kill him? Why give him a chance to escape?
He explains that he wants batman to watch his city deteriorate to chaos or whatever.
By putting him in an underground prison where he can't see it happening?
Also why? In the comics Bane removed Batman because he was a threat not because of a personal grievance.
He has a TV showing him Gotham news or some shit. idc what happens in the comic. I'm not defending the movie just telling you what I remember from watching this movie like 10 years ago. There's a lot of stupid shit in the movie but it's made abundantly clear why he's alive and in prison.
Not really. It's just on these forums.
As soon as you go out into the real world, you'll see cops are people too and have about the same amount of respect as everyone else.
First you need to go out into the real world, though.
Well, the real world is where these cops are murdering children. And it's in the real world that we get to experience their maliciousness directly.
Maybe you should stick to your fantasy land where cops aren't hair trigger shooting people with basic tools?
A cop in my area shot his car with a suspect in it multiple times because an acorn gave him spookies. Also, cops here are widely known to be corrupt and shitty. I'll just keep on assuming they are incompetent and useless.
I had no hatred of police until I worked with/around them for the better part of a decade. Used to go around to different places training them on a new methodology of data entry, and had them come to us after out department got the space. Trained hundreds of departments of all types of cops, trained hundreds of different facilities of COs. Not a single time, in the 1-3 day training periods, did I come away without hearing them brag about, or do, some awful shit. After the 50th or so department, where police fist bumped, and cajoled each other over violating people's rights, I just couldn't stand them anymore. They will sit around bouncing ways of violating people's rights that will still provide them the protection of immunity. They trade pointers on the best ways to trump up charges against people they know aren't breaking the law, but they don't like. The moment the room was all male, or all the x minority was out of ear shot, the bigotry came out. At first I tried reporting it. Got told that since I am a white dude they didn't think I was gonna care, and if I pushed this issue it was only going to be bad for me.
This stuff affects their personal lives too. It is very common for cops to slowly lose anyone out of their life that isn't a cop, or directly related to one. They hang out in bars where they have driven off pretty much everyone but other cops, their social events tend to be nothing but other cops and their families. There are whole subdivisions of domestic violence professionals that deal only with the families of police. They isolate themselves with their behavior and then blame everyone else for hating cops. Meanwhile many of the people who stopped hanging around them will tell you it's because they are paranoid, bigoted, and quick to anger, if not violence.
They also drastically over value the rarest dangers of their jobs. Spend enough time around police and you will hear about how many of them are ambushed and murdered. That is very rare, and most often the result of the cops doing something shady with their position. You very rarely hear them mention how driving all the time, and the recklessness of driving in emergency situations, is actually what kills them most often. While it was starting to gain some traction in the latter days of me working in the justice industry, they also rarely discussed how sitting all day, alone, in their car, caused a myriad of health issues, namely heart disease and other obesity/sedentary related illnesses. No, not worth talking about much if they can't make themselves the victim.
Policing, in the US, has become a cult of sorts.
Rapists are people, too. Dictators are people, too. Murderers are people, too.
I thought cops were pigs, though?
Who watches the watchmen?

I hope you have a gun or know how to fight.
Otherwise you need cops to defend you.
Otherwise you need cops to defend you.
Like the kids in Uvalde?
But they don't do that. Cops don't defend people, they look for people to prosecute.
From who? The police?
Cops are not for personal defense lmao. Who told you that?
Cops don't fucking defend anyone, the fuck are you on about?
Is that why cops have no legal requirements to protect and serve, or even save civilians from criminals? Or why they can murder civilians without consequences?
Just like Uvalde, right?
Your supreme court already said that police have no obligation to protect citizens.
Yeah, if your house gets invaded, you better hope you are in a low population area, and the cops happen to be close to your house, or you will wait at least 20 minutes for them to show. You will have been robbed, or worse, before any police can get to the scene under most conditions.
The only people who have ever assaulted me were cops.
Fuck rhe police
Everybody getting a gun was the problem. Now you got paranoid, trigger-happy police who get to keep their pensions after murdering an actual child, and people like you promoting both.
I'm just nice so I have a lot of friends. A lot. I'll stick up for them and they'll stick up for me. Don't mess.
