Everybody loves us. 🚒

That's right.

Wish you and yours had been at TASSP. You were discussed several times with much fondness.

I'm sorry you feel this way. Many PD and FD do their jobs with respect and pride....and many of both do not. Maligning an entire group isn't fair.

Agreed. Not all police. But in LA too many for 100+ years have violently abused communities.
See: Rodney King, Rampart, the youth authority abuses, sheriff and police department gangs?

Have you lived as a Latino or black person under the authority of the LAPD and/or sheriff’s departments?

Judgments and settlements against them are literally bankrupting the city and county.

Nope. My statement was simply in response the generalization of one group. I think everyone can agree that lumping one group/ethnicity/religion/gender etc isn't an accurate representation of said group. Bad apples exist among ALL of us.

The LAPD’s problem is that its internal culture kees the good apples silent about the bad ones. There are shelves of books & studies on the effects of this going back 100+ years. The however many bad apples spoil the bunch.

NWA was from LA. “Fuck the Police” was written about LA specifically.

I know who NWA is and what Fuck the Police was about. Still doesn't make it ok to generalize.
