This is all the quiet parts outloud.
Police don't need to follow the rules they enforce.
Police don't understand what makes something unsafe (cyclists aren't worried about running into your car, they're worried about having to enter the roadway to get around your car).
Police should be worshiped like heros.
Police believe "criminal" is a class of people.
Police think anyone who complains about police is a libtard soyboy who cares about people's feelings.

Agreed on all counts. Especially unnerving to say the "criminal class" part when Canada and especially the greater Toronto area are facing an affordability crisis and people are turning towards crime to survive.

And then the ethically sourced soy latte comment? So unnecessary.

The only class of people that are criminals is poor people, who have to resort to doing crime to feed their families.

So basicly they're saying "our job is to hurt poor people"
