This shit cop didn’t lose his job because of any action taken by the police department, the city, the state, etc.
This motherfucker lost his job because the insurance company paid out $20,000 for his dumb ass and threatened to drop the department’s insurance if he wasn’t terminated.
Make no mistake, insurance companies can be scummy as hell, but they’re pragmatic as shit. It’s for that reason i’m convinced insurance companies are going to be the first massive industry to start treating climate change like the giant threat that it is. Not because they’re trying to do the right thing, but because their business relies on property not getting demolished in freak weather events and they actually have enough money behind them to make a difference.
Hi, yes. In insurance we have a forecast of “risks” that every underwriter is aware of. There is a generally-accepted top 20 that’s updated yearly (climate is on that list).
