The Goodhue Police Department resigned due to issues with the city’s pay, Mayor Ellen Anderson Buck said at a city council meeting Monday.
Now who’s going to harass brown people and shoot dogs?
Yeah, but who’s gonna protect the citizens now from all the thugs and gang bangers? Now that they’re jobless, the ex-police are gonna have way more time to harass brown people and shoot dogs without the constant need to fill out use-of-force reports.
The police are the thugs and gang bangers; now they’ll have to do their harassment without the sanction of the law behind them
Thanks to our strong 2A rights those citizens can easily protect themselves.
And nothing of value was lost.
I generally agree with the ACAB sentiment, but they were being paid $22 an hour which is a pittance. I wouldn’t do the job for that salary either.
Pay depends on the area, if everyone else is making 13 then 22 is a kings salary. Should it work that way at this point? No but it does and being a cop statistically is less dangerous than my job.
I live in one of the poorest states in the country, and even there, 22 is barely above average. So that a fuckin’ lie. This state has TWO of the most dangerous cities in America. Not even the desperate would police this shit for that money.
It’s not just the raw danger it’s also the shit you have to deal with. I can’t imagine the stress of it. I wouldn’t do it.
Not to mention with this acab bullshit it’s even less than thankless.
I have a client who was responsible for recruitment for the local police and she said it was difficult to find people, which leads to worse conditions, more overtime, and more stress for everyone in the department.
Not to mention with this acab bullshit it’s even less than thankless.
Oh right we should be thanking cops for giving us traffic tickets when we just watched them blow through the same stop sign. We should be thanking them for murdering minorities in over policed neighborhoods. We should be thanking them for… checks notes one more time getting afraid of the dog in the yard they’re not supposed to be in and shooting it to death. /s
COPS DESERVE NO RESPECT. THEY ARE NOT HEROES.
You are so fucking cop pilled lmao
Entire “city” has 1,176 people in it. That requires one cop.
I hear ya but it does take a bit more than that. People get sick or go on vacation plus they can get called out any time day or night. They had 3 Full timers and 2 part timers and it looks like they were doing Code Enforcement and Animal Control as well.
