Current Events > Are all cops bastards?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Just a simple poll.

---

---

No but most are. The system makes them bastards. Good ones either quit or stay and turn into bastards

No, but there is an unacceptable amount of rot in the system

---

Anybody who says yes needs to pull their head out their fat ass and take a reality check

---

Yes. The ones not committing crimes will turn a blind eye to the ones that do so they're all corrupt.
---

Im sure theres one out there thats ok. Probably.....

---

What a stupid question.

Every single cop is a hero who puts their lives on the line daily to serve and protect our communities.
---

Certainly not. I have a friend (female) who was a cop, great person. Department fucked her over and she is no longer a cop so shes obviously not the basted in that whole situation.

What do you think happens to an officee who doesn't turn a blind eye? They fire the cop he reported and everyone cheers him on? You'd basically have to be undercover for awhile in your own precinct before you could do anything if note. If you get in and immediately "tattle" on your fellow officers, that's probably where your ability to do anything ends.

Hopefully eventually we get some cops building up cases and coming out on their own. It's a far cry, but it would be badass lol

Waiting for the ACAB boys to show up and spam yes votes.

This is a fair point, though.
---

Yes

Even if they're not abusing power themselves, they'll still protect their own, and will enforce unjust laws

---

they are literally a legal gang that can murder and terrorize Americans who they are sworn to protect and serve

Of course not, but enough of them are and being protected by the union to be an issue.

---

No. There are issues, but the ACAB logic seems to be literally every station in every state is a den of corruption.

while it's true that corruption is a major problem among police departments, it's not the central problem

---

---

No there's some decent ones I know. What I don't like is the majority of them do know what's wrong in their force and just keep quiet.

if you answered yes you should seek therapy

There is no cure to stupidity.

It is fucking eerie knowing that people can so easily hate any group if the media condemns them. The complete and utter lack of empathy to the 99% of cops who have never hurt anyone, or even cops that have never left desk work, is terrifying.

Hatred towards cops is proof that the bottom 25% of Americans could be nazified towards any group

At least 50 percent of cops are corrupt. Don't make me laugh with your 99 percent are innocent crap

It's also partly why we need cops.

Honestly half the reason why democrats hate cops so much is because when cops have inevitable altercations it makes white people look bad, which makes them feel bad about themselves. They are emotionally tied to their race Lol

oh 50%!? Shit! If they get 1% more they can take over the whole profession! Now all cops will be corrupt! Fuck the cops!

Citizen to firefighter, Thank you for saving my chimney! Youre my hero!

Citizen to police officer, Man you bruised my arm when I was trying to jump off a bridge! See you in court!

They already have taken over. I said at least. I was being generous. The system itself is rotten and the top cops in the nation are all evil. The cops schools, the instructors. The unions. It's all corrupt

With jews it was centuries of stereotypes. With cops it's because of scientific evidence. Cops as a system, in America, are evil. Some invisible cops are good but when the system itself is evil, there is only so much they can do and most of them end up quitting, being fired, turning evil, or getting set up to die in a shootout by the evil cops

That last part is that sometimes cops who try to fix the system end up angering their coworkers and when they are in trouble and call for help, they get left to die

Its not even remotely equivalent. This is about action and inaction.

holy fuck man, mind = blown. You know what else I just realized? I just realized if you switch bears for dolphins the bears are dolphins then.

whoa.

Their job is to give me a ticket while Im driving around

that definitely qualifies them as bastards

Ah yes, one white kid grew up rich and went to college , one went to the army, and the other became a cop.

I do wonder if the rich were required to become cops anything would change.

Yeah man, abstractions are really cool! It's really the basis of any original, cognitive thought!

Ive had police officers go to great lengths to show me that not everyone is a bad guy. It worked.

The problem with "some good cops" is that they are too often complicit with the actions of the bad cops. Granted this may be out of fear or ignorance but the point stands. There's no accountability, therefore the entire system needs to be replaced regardless of the presence of "good cops"

Yep. We need to fire every cop in the whole country and then start over

Arent you the one who just tried to equate U.S. police with Jewish people?

*checks notes*

Yes, yes, you were the one. Surprised youve lasted so long, I look forward to your next accounts name.

I did not equate Jewish people with US police. I spoke about generalizing groups of people. This is an abstraction. I know these are hard. You can do it.

the poll is pretty simple though, its asking if all cops are bastard, the answer is no, that is it, doesnt matter if there are systemic issues, all cops are not bastards

Of course not

A lot of them are corrupt. I don't agree with the notion that they're racist or anything though.

You did equate them though. Literally everyone here will agree with that analysis.
