They're not traitors .... they never had any loyalty to the population to begin with

They were created to 'maintain law and order' .... not some fanciful idea of protecting or serving people.

Police are working-class ergo they are class traitors.

damn we missed our chance at political action for another 4 years, let's go into cold storage until it's time to vote against the worst candidate in favor of the slightly less bad candidate.
