    Availability heuristic. You don’t hear about the thousands more peaceful altercations. The only ones you hear about are the violent ones which, surprise surprise, are more likely to get shown in the media

      Well yeah but there are wayyy too many violent interactions

      Also during every violent interaction how many “good cops” just stood there and watched?

      40% of cops admit to abusing their partners lmao

      It’s basically safe to assume if someone wants to be or is a cop they’re really just an actual psychotic criminal underneath

          Fuck the fucking pigs. Guilty until proven innocent at this point. I give game wardens and postal inspectors a pass, I guess.

          I hope most of them die in a fire and it hurts the whole time.

          I had a dear friend who was gang raped by sheriff’s deputies. I reckon that’s just an anecdote.

            I had a dear friend who was gang raped by sheriff’s deputies.

            Unless this happened in a third world country, i reckon those cops would be in jail by now.

            Condolences to your friend

              You are delusional and probably a nefarious actor

                Dude he specifically used the word “gang-raped” not “mild groping” or “gawking”. I don’t think it’s far-fetched to assume those cops are now behind bars for GANG-RAPING someone
