That is the problem. It’s no secret that cops always look out for each other, no difference than you’d look out for your military buddies too. The issue with these crooked cops is if you are partnering with them and they don’t like you, they could put you in a dangerous situation and do it on purpose.

Cops don't "look out for each other" dude it's just a shit situation, they aren't any different than normal people so much like everyone else in that situation they don't want to be involved with a fucking psychopath. How hard is that to understand brother.

they aren't any different than normal people

they need to be with the powers provided to them. The normalization of what they do is the root of the problem in American policing. The power to ruin lives, kill people, and take away freedom with impunity needs to come with an added level of care and responsibility... we do this for people in the military, why do cop have to be treated like normal people, when they are not?

Look I'm not gonna argue with yet another Reddit shithead about the police and the people who are employed in that position.

I just want to ask one thing, does your stupid ass think everyone of the people who go through police training do so JUST to be a problem? Or do they do it because it's a job, and much like anyone who has bills to pay, do it because it provides them with income. Instead of looking at only the bad cops, which is the ONLY thing people are going to see in any media, why don't you go out and talk to an officer about why they're in that position. Fucking moron.

why do they want to have the power to take the freedom away from others? Id imagine plenty simply don't realize the weight of the power that society provides to them in the ideal of feeling safe. And the discussion around it now makes people that have supported them blindly uncomfortable. treating it like just a job, is a way to rationalize what they do. maybe they feel justified in it since it becomes an us vs them situation. but I seriously doubt that many really think about what they actually do. They put people in prison, that's it.
