You can take the boy out of the good, but you can’t take the good outta the boy!

An American cop defending a citizen?!

Wow. I feel European. Fancy.

french police disagrees, before arresting you if: black, at a drive stop, and suspicious. Consider yourself lucky if not dead after the encounter. Also we got our own "problem" in the mediterranean (the politicians usually refer to migrants as kinda inferior). Sometimes it seems like the point IS cruelty

Amateurs.

American police literally break into African Americans homes to kill them. The French (correctly) rioted when Nahel Merzouk was killed by police. Here, it's just a way of life we're so numb to police killing in the name of race. Kids of color have to have an uncomfortable talk with their parents not to make any sudden moves when a cop is around.

There are more racist nations than the US, but France isn't in our racism and racial violence weight class. Swaths of people in our southern states still proudly display slavery enthusiast flags.

Lets not get in a competition. My point was that no one should aspire to be a eurpean, because on average we are still brutally racists

edit: oh my, the fellow europeans quietly downvoting are truly interesting to see

We did it guys, we found the one good cop, and it's a doggo.

I bet the cops has the dog put down.

God, I hope not.

Dogs have a higher rank than humans specifically to prevent abuse.

The number of dogs killed by cops kinda under cuts this.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Those were civilian dogs and they were probably resisting arrest

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Of course they were "resisting" dogs don't even speak english how could they comply

When your good boy triumphs over your bad cop

How these unfit people are on police force? That lady and the guy looked like they have been on the couch for one month with no excersize. I am not body shaming. But police forces needs fit people. They should be physically fit.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

More weight to kneel on people's necks with.

Police should be philosophically and psychologically fit first. The lack of those really makes the third a non-issue.

In fact the lack on that front is a selling point. I would rather have those that are unfit also be incompetent.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago

Well of course. Dogs are colorblind.

The best cop

Lmao. They can’t train police dogs to not like aggressive behavior. Too many cops will get injured!
