I explained to a police officer in my beer sharing circles during the George Floyd protests:
Damn near every kid in a high school cafeteria knows who the bad kids are and what tables they sit at. It’s no different anywhere in the real world. Every cop at every precinct knows which cops are the bad ones.
Unlike a highschool cafeteria, you, as a police officer, have a civic, professional, and moral duty to do everything in your power to get those cops kicked the fuck out. And the idea that doing so might somehow harm your career? That’s why “all cops are bastards.” It’s rotten from the top down. A few bad apples, in the case of police officers, spoils the whole bunch.
My sister in law is a (not American) cop when she’s not an EMT … And she also moonlights as a volunteer fireman.
Where on the hero-bastard spectrum of cheap generalization you’ve devised does she sit?
*ACAB, in their capacity as cops.
Yep, she’s still unfortunately a bastard, sorry to say
The job of a cop is a bastard job. When she is working voluntarily as a cop, she is supporting a bastardized system and is therefore a bastard.
Nowhere, not American is a foreign concept to them.
I don’t know if your pun was intentional, but yeah anything not American would be foreign to an American. That’s how definitions work.
Hi German here, we say fuck ICE a lot because it’s a fast Train who always comes late. But to make a long story short, I am missing something here, what does ICE stand for?
Immigration and Customs Enforcement in the US. They’re basically the ones who raid homes and businesses looking for undocumented workers
And don’t forget about separating parents from children, holding illegal immigrants in overcrowded cells made from chain link fences inside buildings… They are America’s version of the Show me your papers patrol.
