    I defend the people who are supposed to be innocent until proven guilty, but nobody here likes that notion anymore it would seem.

        I think you’re keen on grouping up people into something which makes them less. Because it’s easier that way to separate yourself from the realization you’re susceptible to the same kind of trappings and bias.

        We’re all human, for better and worse. And conflict exists at every level or we wouldn’t be where we are today.

        You wanna hate cops because you see the worst of them, but this media is designed to show you the worst of them. And have you stopped to consider that cops see the worst of humanity every day? Everything you only see in the media designed to inflame you, they see it in person and interact with it.

        If you are influenced to see cops as all bad and may even want to hurt them for it, why wouldn’t they be influenced in the same way?

        You don’t like that perspective because it reminds you we are very much the same people in almost every way. So I suggest you stop pretending cops are aliens, monsters or whatever else and accept that humans are simply flawed.

          And you’re obsessed with defending the indefensible, to the point of making shit up now. You can’t even articulate my point.

          Buh. Bye.
