Let's not pretend most cops don't say this internally. We're supposed to be surprised because these got caught?
As for the pictures... also nothing new that the military or literally any other mayor special force haven't done before.
- Most cops don't say this internally.
  
  You are correct. Most cops say this out loud when they are drinking with their coworkers off duty.
  
  Must be nice living in your lala land where no cops exist.
  
  When it does get said, I'm sure it's reported by their honorable peers and appropriate disciplinary action is taken. Right? Right?
  Go lick boots
Thank God they're exempt from any gun control laws, and that defending yourself against these sweet angels in blue carries a massive mandatory sentence! You wouldn't want some sadistic fucks go around hurting people then having the legal system protect them!! Oh, wait...
- Kinda makes ya wanna oppose gun control huh
  
  Kinda makes you hate cops, and everyone complicit in protecting them.
  
  Not really. A gun didn't protect Philando Castile or Breonna Taylor from the cops.
How do you think these people came to believe that they could repeatedly brag to police about breaking the law without any consequences?
That's where the A in ACAB comes in. For every crooked cop there are dozens that looked the other way as he hurt and killed people who didn't do anything wrong.
I did something different this time,” he wrote, “as purcy was on the bite, i pulled back his harness which i think helped with the bite.” After one characteristically bloody encounter, a colleague responded with concern over an apparent cut on the dog’s muzzle. Amiri responded: “That’s a piece of the suspect’s flesh lol.”
This is just utterly evil and sad.
These police unions have got to go.
- ~~These~~ police ~~unions~~ have got to go.
  FTFY.
jUsT a FeW bAd ApPlEs!
- Spoil the whole bunch.
  
  Weird how they always forget that's the whole phrase.
- jUsT a FeW bAd ApPlEs!
They all look like they have murdred someone and got away with it.
- For sure started with spiking drinks and worked up from there.
The part of this that I find most interesting is that the city is defending their behavior while the acting police chief all but threw them under the bus.
Better increase their budget so we can reform this
That article is so much worse than I thought it would be. Holy shit.
It's not some cops are bastards.
Quiet ones get fired.
Shitty ones remain.
Gasp 😮
Shocked I say. Shocked.
- Don't you mean Tazered?
Why aren't US citizens protesting against this?
- They shoot and beat us when we do. And laws have been passed making it OK to run over protestors.
