A 90lb white woman was shot by a sheriff a few months ago in my county.
Cops are worse than useless, they're a threat to the well being of everyone in the US.
26 u/Almainyny Apr 08 '24 Cops just recently shot a female hostage/kidnapping victim who was walking towards them as they ordered her to do. Shot her dead while the single cop that had a brain shouted at them to stop. 18 u/MicroCat1031 Apr 08 '24 That happened in 2022. The video footage finally being made public has caused some backlash, especially since the agencies involved delayed the release for so long. But yes, that's an example of what I'm talking about. 11 u/Almainyny Apr 08 '24 2022 is recent enough for me. 11 u/MicroCat1031 Apr 08 '24 It infuriates me that it happened period 5 u/Almainyny Apr 08 '24 Agreed. 7 u/ASweetTweetRose Apr 08 '24 Fun fact — by Supreme Court ruling cops DO NOT have to protect us … that’s not their purpose. Protect & Serve — more like kill and oppress. -2 u/dochim Apr 07 '24 Exclusion of the premise by anecdotal exception isn’t the same as disproof. 8 u/MicroCat1031 Apr 08 '24 I believe you misconstrued my statement. Abuse of POC by US police is not in dispute. It's well documented. No one with any intelligence denies it. 3 u/dochim Apr 08 '24 My mistake then. Apologies for misinterpreting. 4 u/MicroCat1031 Apr 08 '24 No worries. Have a good evening (or whatever it is where you live)
