You ever wonder why there are no videos of cops tackling and punching white supremacists during their protests?
(It’s cause the cops are on their side.)
There are plenty of videos of cops flashing white supremacist signs, though
These people should be much more tightly regulated
May I introduce you to the term “police work stoppage”
Dereliction of duty & loss of pension
Try to get that past the union
Wait a second, you’re telling me police have one of those evil socialist unions?
“some of those that work forces are the same that burn crosses”
Rage against the machine for everyone who doesn’t know.
It’d be awkward at the office the next day if they punched a coworker.
Too many just say no they should just open carry ignoring that it would just make the cops attack even harder
At least you’ll get to shoot back
Maybe, except all the examples of cops going from zero to “shooty-mcshooty-pants” as soon as they see or suspect you have a gun.
If it’s one person, yes. If it’s an entire crowd of people open carrying rifles, not so much.
Or indeed an acorn.
Friendly Fire is usually not enabled.
It’s about sides, but not about racism, I think.
Just the profession is mostly attractive to cowards who want to fill the inner void of self-respect by violence against others (or fear). Quite similar to how people become racist.
It’s definitely about racism. Racists are welcomed in the force. They’re just encouraged to keep it on the DL. You know, only where the hood on the weekends.
There’s a reason cops are called pigs, cause they’re fucking disgusting and shouldn’t be associated with actual humans!
But they aren’t kosher or halal!
Abrahamic religions: surprisingly based?
Fucking disgusting.
That’s not proper procedure, that’s assault. I would totally back that crowd if they swarmed in and beat the shit out of those cops after seeing that.Honestly, until the working class realizes the cops work for the capitalists and are there to protect their property, not civilians, we will see more “don’t have anything to fear” crowd stepping in to assist against this kind of thing.
However, most are still hung up on wedge issues like abortion to unite against the powers of their own oppression. So long as cops are seen as protectors to some, we will have bootlickers tonguing some pork brown-eye.
Just remember: all protestors are antisemities
Also: “cops aren’t bad, there’s just one or two bad apples.”
…ffs
Yeah, I never understood why they use that phrase. I swear not a single one has heard the entire phrase:
A few bad apples spoil the bunch.
I completely expected at least some incidents of crowds mass uprising against cops during the 2020 brutalities. I don’t mean burning down police stations. I mean literally attacking every cop on the street after Twitter was awash with cops running over protesters, cracking an old mans skull open, etc. I would have thought cops would be afraid of citizen mobs coming to their homes.
The degree of repression that we just accept, despite our anger, is shocking to me. And I say this as an anti-violence person. I wouldn’t have taken part in such an uprising. But I thought there are enough people who would be pushed over the edge that I was sorta dismayed that a mini-revolution didn’t happen.
I’ve heard they can shoot up some people for that there in the New World?
ACAB.
It’s crazy how this makes headlines around the world, yet we’ve had cops behave ten times worse with protesters here in Germany and it never leaves fringe news outlets. Not even one big German news outlet explicitly talks or goes into details on the cases of brutal police violence happening here. It feels like I’m living in a dystopian future. Beware, this is coming to you too.
It’s because of our past and now Israel can do no wrong and anyone who even hints at Israel doing a genocide is an antisemitic Nazi sympathizer. The media and politics bias is extreme
Yes, it’s funny, I grew up listening to my clueless mother about how Germany has repented and Nazi stuff isn’t tolerated because they understand the weight and all that nonsense.
I’m part Jewish. Reading EDIT: (accidental press) some of the stuff on the interwebs from Germans make me wish they were more like Japan FFS.
If it makes you feel any vindication, the fact that this was reported by news outlets here means nothing. This cop will never see punishment beyond a slap on the wrist or some paid administrative leave at best. Police violence has already been institutionalized in America too.
