Let’s not pretend most cops don’t say this internally. We’re supposed to be surprised because these got caught?

As for the pictures… also nothing new that the military or literally any other mayor special force haven’t done before.

All badges are dishonorable until proven otherwise with action. Honor is for individuals.

You are correct. Most cops say this out loud when they are drinking with their coworkers off duty.

When it does get said, I’m sure it’s reported by their honorable peers and appropriate disciplinary action is taken. Right? Right?

Go lick boots

Thank God they’re exempt from any gun control laws, and that defending yourself against these sweet angels in blue carries a massive mandatory sentence! You wouldn’t want some sadistic fucks go around hurting people then having the legal system protect them!! Oh, wait…

I hated cops when I was a punk rock teenager and they were killjoys who wouldn’t let my friends and I run rampant, drink, and party. 30 years later I’m a homeowner and a parent and I fucking hate cops so much more than I ever did during that period of my life

Not really. A gun didn’t protect Philando Castile or Breonna Taylor from the cops.

How do you think these people came to believe that they could repeatedly brag to police about breaking the law without any consequences?

That’s where the A in ACAB comes in. For every crooked cop there are dozens that looked the other way as he hurt and killed people who didn’t do anything wrong.

I did something different this time,” he wrote, “as purcy was on the bite, i pulled back his harness which i think helped with the bite.” After one characteristically bloody encounter, a colleague responded with concern over an apparent cut on the dog’s muzzle. Amiri responded: “That’s a piece of the suspect’s flesh lol.”

This is just utterly evil and sad.
