just for a test, why don't you go up to a cop who's working and tell him to get the fuck out of your face even once and see how it goes.This exactly my point. It is not illegal to tell a police officer to "fuck off." Nor should it be. This is established law. It's not even up for debate. You're just wrong. If a cop assaults you and arrests you for that reason, your rights have been violated, and that cop isn't fit for the job. Those are the exact people we need to discourage from going into policing. Instead, we coddle them, let them get away with whatever they want. It's despicable, and shame on you for encouraging it. It's a pox on communities, and it would be so easy to fix. --- The simulacrum is never that which conceals the truth, it is the truth which conceals that there is none. The simulacrum is true.

cops have to be there because of the amount of shootings and stabbings at football games in the south, so you can fuck off too.Freedom is the price for security, eh?

ModernPost 09/19/23 8:27:59 PM #185 | Consider a hypothetical. What would be different about this situation if the cops weren't there? Their presence created an unnecessary confrontation with a citizen doing, AT WORST, playing music at 10pm in violation of some petty local ordinance. This man has civil rights, firmly established by law. Freedom of expression, freedom of assembly, freedom to petition for a redress of grievances. That legally overrides any petty city ordinance or policy. This kind of policing destroys communities. It is completely toxic.

You dont get to make up lies about other people. Admit underpaying staff is wrong, tipping culture is bad, and then fuck off. I dont tolerate anyone who thinks tipping is good or that its a good workaround to employees being underpaid. Because you facilitate tipping, you allowed it to flourish. Thats why your opinion is bad. And you become a bad person by calling anyone who disagrees with you cheapIt's so funny how you think you can take some principled stance when the direct result is that low-wage workers end up under-compensated. You will just talk yourself into all kinds of circles. What does it matter if you pay it to the driver directly as a tip or if you pay it to his boss after tipping is abolished and prices go up?
