“Lots of people”? No.You suffering from an authority complex? YOU wouldn't last very long if we didn't have police, champ. Remember that.I am not a police officer and neither are any of you.
I want the police around when I am in trouble.
I don't want them not being there because they are afraid of what will happen if they come to my aide.
And you might consider that if you don't want to wind up with someone's knee on your neck.....DON"T BREAK THE FUCKING LAW.
How does that apply to Breonna Taylor? We also have no clue whether or not he broke the law or knowingly broke the law. Even if there was a counterfeit bill used we have no clue whether or not he knew it was.
You'll need to think about it just a little bit more.
He was habitual law breaker. Cops are human.
You didn't answer my question. Why?
I could note that the officer habitually had complaints filed against him also.
He did and he was allowed to continue.
Someone will account for that also.
But there are a lot of good people on police forces doing a job for a lot less money than I'd ever consider it for.
I don't want to hamstring them because of this guy's mistake.
And I'll repeat....don't want a knee in your neck....don't break the law. Ever.
How does that apply to what happened to Breonna Taylor? Also, again, we have no idea whether he broke or intentionally broke any law. It would not be that difficult for someone to mistakenly pass a fake bill.
The narrative is also going to become more along the lines of..........Don't want fired, don't stick a knee in someone's neck.
Thank you.
And as you continue to place those constraints, you'll have a harder time staffing law enforcement or restraining criminals.
Consequently, they might not be around when you need them.
Unless you are a cop, you don't know what they deal with (I certainly don't).
There will be plenty of people willing to take the job. Somehow places like the U.K. can fill their needs.
Why is border patrol having such a hard time filling slots.
Why is my local police force almost begging for applicants.
The same in the cities around me.
Why ?
Just not enough power hungry ass holes available to fill those slots.
Lots of people don't last very long with the cops we have. Ask the Floyd family about that.
One is too many if it is you or a family member. Makes you wonder how many murders occurred before cameras became so common. Without video, Floyd would be just another dead guy.
Yep, but now that everyone has a camera on their phone, catching bad behaviors by the police and forcing them to change is gonna happen. Maybe not as fast as some would like, but it's gonna happen. Police officers can no longer operate like they once did, getting everyone to tell the same story if a suspect goes deaddy-bye.
