weren't cops in the US originally "slave patrols" with dogs who were called [] dogs? ([] being a racial slur (iirc) either way im not repeating it cuz im white)
like i'm pretty sure cops in the US have since the very beggining of their existence, been an opressive force.
granted im polish, and never been in the US, + i learned this from a youtube video ("cops are not your friends") but honestly i wouldn't be surprised if that info was true considering america's whole... thing..
Oh poor bunny, do you think ONLY the cops are evil?
THE ENTIRE MILITARY IS EVIL.
Yk MK ultra? The docs that we have today is what SURVIVED.
Imagine what kinds of inhumane experiments and torture methods were used that we DON'T KNOW OF.
Then we have the fact that their tech is, like, 20-30 years ahead of what we have now.
For sure they use that for good and definitelly haven't used that to "dissapear" with ppl that dissagree with them, specially now with the Facist orange in charge of the US.
And that's not even touching on the history of armies/militaries, which make things 100x worse.
From sending CHILDREN to fight into a war, capturing and abusing women from villages they massacred.
In resume: Militaries and armies are, by their nature, utterly evil and so are those that work to it.
i agree, its particularly frustrating here in the uk where people find the uk police a lot easier to like i guess, even some well meaning family members of mine want reformation instead of removal which upsets me greatly, do they not think that all police are just as bad as eachother?
funny that you posted this just now bc i was watching a documentary about crimes that shook britain and ppl kept talking about how police officers that specialise in family liaison stuff are good and I said allowed, "nah, ACAB", then I look down at my phone and see this.
💙Recently said a statement about cops and someone replied “my dad is a cop” there was a pause in conversation and i responded with “my opinion doesn’t change”
A+ post first of all, you're right and you should say it!!
Secondly I keep seeing your stuff on tumblr but didn't put together that that was you! Followed so I can see your stuff over there as well 🖤
Lol once had a Canadian start trying to argue "actually, our cops are good" as if they aren't rough riding their first nations people and raping them. If they don't want to be evil, they can get another job.
Gotta say it was incredibly unsurprising when I found out modern police and private prisons are adapted from systems and tactics they used to chase down runaway slaves
"what if they join the police to do good things?" unless they actually succeed in destroying the system of oppression they've willingly joined then they're doing a terrible job
My stepdad was a cop and I agree with what you say, as he was an emotionally and mentally abusive person to not just me but my mom as well
I agree with you completely.
Cops are evil.
you fucking COOKED with “good cops quit or get fired” the system of policing is so fucked rn that people who want to do right by their position have to ignore pretty much everything from the top brass. how the hell did we get here.
i lived in Joe Arpaio's AZ as a kid. being latino and being pulled over was genuinely a terrifying thing. ive only ever seen cops as people who want us dead. you would be pulled over or followed by cops if your tint didnt hide ur skin color. fuck cops
be active in a community and attend areas that help take care of folks in poverty or need by participating in activities that build up others and or help keep people fed and financially stable.

That's the thing. "Good" cops don't exist.
And i also know people who tried to get into the academy and told no. They don't want good people. They don't want shakers and movers.
They want "Yes Sir" not a martyr.
