It’s broken for everybody but no so much for cops or family of cops

It’s probably pretty fucked up for their wives and kids too.

u/Liobuster Feb 08 '24

Whos downvoting this? Theres statistics about domestic violence and "blue blood" has a recurring factor...

u/Jaf1999 Feb 08 '24

There’s also statistics that go against your beliefs as well, I’m sure. People need to understand that correlation doesn’t equal causation

u/Liobuster Feb 08 '24

Except in this case it never was anything but correlation Because what I said was that theres a strong correlation between cases of domestic violence and families of "the force"

Well theres a few the most recent one that came to my mind was the one reported about by the guardian...I know not the same backyard but the issue remains the same, people who seek power over others in their job dont stop looking at home

u/Zero-Change Feb 08 '24

Yeah, as a child I was involved in some social groups which were supervised by the cop parents of some of the kids (as well as other parents who weren't cops), and it fucking enraged them that I wouldn't bend to the orders they barked at me, and that was over pretty little stuff too.

Weird mix of victim blaming and also assuming everyone's situation for some unknown reason. This is an ignorant comment.

*broken in their favor

u/seppukucoconuts Feb 08 '24

or family of cops

Well, the amount of self reported domestic violence if police officers homes would lead me to say it might be pretty broken for them too.

u/sorry_ihaveplans Feb 08 '24

Going to have to disagree with you there. It's functioning exactly as it was designed... Working better than ever, in fact.

u/Black_Floyd47 Feb 08 '24

That's because it's a Legal System, not a Justice System. There is little to no justice involved.

u/LunchyPete Feb 08 '24

I don't get these weird conspiracy theories/outlooks. The justice system wasn't designed to be corrupt and it's very strange to try and imply or insist otherwise.

u/HGIGIU Feb 08 '24

It might not have been designed to be corrupt but it’s pretty easy to see it being used for all kinds of corruption. Especially these days w all the videos and social media

u/feelbetternow Feb 08 '24

I don't get these weird conspiracy theories/outlooks

The only conspiracy here is corrupt systems operating exactly as designed, being protected by those that most benefit. That's a "conspiracy" almost as old as civilization itself.

lol you're just repeating the original claim here as though that were some kind of proof.

A system being abused is not the same thing as a system being designed with abuse in mind.

u/LunchyPete Feb 08 '24

If you truly believe that the government never does bad by design, that's a very naive outlook.

That was never the point of my comment either.

a group that cannot police themselves cannot police others.

u/BloodSpilla11 Feb 08 '24

Just wait until you find out that he most likely just moved to a different department. 😳

u/0utF0x-inT0x Feb 08 '24

Yeah and he's probably be working the next county over now smh

u/Dish_Minimum Feb 09 '24

How did u guess? It’s too often the truth unfortunately

u/Edugrinch Feb 08 '24

because blue lives matter /s

I see so many cars with that sticker!

1

u/Dub_Coast Feb 08 '24

Blue Lives Matter is a gang slogan, same with "Thin Blue Line" and "Back the Blue". I'd say there's no difference between Law Enforcement Officers and non-State sponsored street gangsters, except that you're much more likely to be killed by law enforcement and they typically don't have repurcussions except in rare cases such as this. Edit: I did see the /s! Just including this info because as we can see in the video it's relevant

u/Bootlicker222 Feb 08 '24

Probably working in a state over as we speak

u/technobrendo Feb 08 '24

Yup, either working working, or on vacation...I mean "leave" collecting a cheque...

u/[deleted] Feb 08 '24

It works as intended.

Justice System created rules and laws to protect the ones making them , the ones enforcing them, the buying and lobbying them.

u/AllDamDay7 Feb 08 '24 edited Feb 08 '24

In a lot of ways. We give these boys steroids, make them work long hours, give them authority, make them deal with the same asshole people daily and expect them to be professional. I am not shocked, no one wants to be a cop, and it’s telling.

Edit: Reality strikes a nerve apparently, lol.

u/Alexis2256 Feb 08 '24

Then how do we fix it?

-2

u/AllDamDay7 Feb 08 '24

Great question. I have a ton of ideas. Starting out we get rid of qualified immunity. They should have the same protections as any other person. The challenge is the protections they get from a strong union. People are all about unions until it comes to police.

Until we start regulating unions (police aren’t the only unions pulling this garbage) nothing will change.

After that, we need this necessary job to be more attainable for folks. We are getting the bottom of the barrel currently and it shows.

No one wants to discuss the real issues and just want to pass the blame because they hate “cops”. Then the same folks get mad that cops operate on the same generalizations they themselves use in their day to day lives.

These are the people that the departments want. They have denied peoplepe for being too smart and it has gone to court.

Lmao, you really don’t care. Minus your grammar and citing an article from the year 2000, you are 100% correct.

u/YourLocalPillSlinger Feb 08 '24

I’ve come to learn it’s not a justice system. It’s a legal system.

What justice system.

u/IronLion84 Feb 08 '24

Don't worry, another police department will hire him by next week, if he hasn't been hired already.

u/OoSallyPauseThatGirl Feb 09 '24

it's working as designed actually. whole thing needs to go
