I’m talking about those youtube videos.

Feels like lowkey copaganda to me.

    Those who want to get rid of police are anarchist fuckwits who want crime lords to rule society, and they should be dealt with the same way we deal with criminals.

    Oh yeah, that makes total sense, if someone doesn’t agree with you they’re a criminal. /s

    The full expression is a few bad apples spoil the bunch. Police are thoroughly corrupt in the United States and it could be argued with plenty of corroborating evidence that it is a feature and not a bug.

    Your little piggies stood by en masse in Uvalde while eight year olds were slaughtered. But you better believe they’ll be cashing their overtime checks after assisting the ICE raids to help haul off undocumented Grandmas.

    That the stable society you love that they help uphold?

      Even if 100% of the police officers in the country need to be replaced, we still need police. Are you truly debating this?

        Where you getting them from? The type of people that want to be police in this country are largely the fucking problem with this country.

        And besides, I can’t even debate this with you, right? Because it makes me deserving of being treated like a criminal?

        Is it a thought crime to think that people who literally have no mandate to protect the public, constantly murder dogs and people, suck up the majority of most city budgets, and are generally cowards might be doing more harm than good?

        You referring me to be sent to El Salvador? Oh whoops, you said treated like a criminal, not treated like a person applying for asylum. I guess if we’re going to treat me like a criminal in this country, I should be elected president.

          You’re being over-emotional. Stop.

          I can accept that there are systemic problems either the police in this country. Can you accept that private police organizations which will most likely be run by the mafia and cartels would be worse? Regardless of what you want to call it, every democratically elected government needs a force to enforce its laws. They’re typically called police. Yes, our police force needs reforms, but we still need police.

          Now, are we in agreement or am I dealing with a moron not worth my time?
