(+) Yeah! (+)

maybe if cops stopped murdering innocent people in cold blood we wouldn't be calling them bastards.

We don't see majority of cops speaking out against it either. They are either the murderer or an accessory to the murder.

Considering a police encounter has like a sub 0.001% chance of ending in death in general, not even reducing it to outright police murdering people, the idea we should act like that is the standard of the average officer is silly. That doesnt mean theres not an issue with police transparency, oversight, and accountability. That doesnt mean there arent really disgusting good ol boys clubs that need to be heavily investigated, but it is rather gross to act like the average officer bears any ill intent. If you want to say [local precinct] is full of disgusting racists, that is much more believable than applying a broad standard across the country when I dont believe the per capita numbers support it being an evenly divided issue.

on top of that, the few cops who do speak out against it are promptly fired

Every single cop is part of the system and complicit unless they are actively working to change the system, and there is a sub 0.001% chance that any given cop is working to make that change

Ah, the age old "if the choose to be a cop them they are inherently choosing to be bad" argument.

These. FFS, how do some of you not get it? The whole system is rotten and those who are in it just perpetuate it. The few who tried to do the right thing got punished. The whole thing is bad. The bad apples have spoiled the bunch and the whole entire orchard.

Alright let's talk about a reasonable resolution at this point. Pointing fingers isn't gonna go no where.

Most people acknowledges that there's an issue with the cop system and should be changed. What other awareness should be brought to light?

Cats really are the most beautiful thing.

But for those who still don't want change from cops, they'll never be happy with complaints about black people being murdered so fuck em and keep it up and make sure to let everyone know how pretty your local cats are.
