Yes, I grew out of my "fuck the police" phase by the time I got out of high school like most normal functioning adults.


I did too. Then I learned how many were trigger happy, unqualified of the power and/or corrupt. It would be different if we heard about these things happening like once twice a year. Bit it's just too damn often. And these are just the ones that get caught. With them getting off so easy it doesn't really motivate the others to try to do better either.


"Heard about" is the active phrase. There are only about 900-1,000 police killings per year, in the U.S., total. This year is on track to be the lowest in 5 years so far.

ITP we pretend that the only disgusting abuses cops are perpetrating are actual killings


If you say so.


This sounds like a withdrawal if I've ever heard one. You heard about that recent cop that had set up and arrested over 120 people just cause he felt like it. 6 or 7 of them were in prison at the moment he was caught and got released. How many other cops had he rode with during doing these things that just turned a blind eye? None of that goes in your statistic and look how long he got away with it before getting caught. Im sure you'd like to believe he's the only one tho.
