most people are against you (them)

That has not been my experience, but it’s subjective right? I live in a conservative area. So also generally pro our current law enforcement system.

When I was born in the 80s, police drove 1982 Crown Victoria’s with a turbo.

When I graduated high school in the 2000s, they drove 1982 crown Victoria’s with a turbo.

Then, sometime during the Iraq war, these motherfuckers started getting brand fucking new Ford explorers, Ford f150s… Every couple years.

Of course we fucking hate you, stop stealing our money for toys you don’t need. Why don’t you tell us about the new array of artillery in the trunk?

The elites are cultivating an us vs them culture, but the cops aren’t masterminding it.

Even red states hate police, as long as they’re hurting white guys, that is.

It’s not common (and I would argue IQ tests have limited value) but I feel like I should remind everyone this actually happened

If officers are too smart they might start to think minorities are also people and that kids should be protected. We obviously can’t be having that in America

Or maybe during their “Killology” training (yes really) one of them might say “Wait, this is insane bullshit. And has this trainer even seen a gun before?!”

I saw at the end the plaintiff became a prison guard. It’s been over 20 years now, i would be interested to see how long he stuck with it seeing how their whole thing was about smart people quitting the force
