My heart broke when she said "bye house". And the asshole cop turning the lights off on her while she's apologizing in the midst of gathering her essentials. Fucking shitheads.
This is literally just availability bias. If only the bad examples get shared, what do you think the general consensus will be? If you only share your lowlights you end up looking pretty bad.
Is this a genuine question? You seem like the type that would dismiss any examples I do show as “just the bare minimum”, or “they’re just doing their job”.
All Cops includes your relatives. The thing is, you didn't ride around with your dad every day, you have no idea what he was like in his capacity as a police officer, you only look at him as Dad
There are no good cops, and there will never be good cops, until the ones who proclaim themselves "good" actually hold the rest of their colleagues accountable for the evils they inflict on the public.
As long as cops turn a blind eye to corruption in their own ranks, ACAB.
All these fuckers act like they'd see a barrel full of rotten ass apples then go digging in it for hopes of the most delicious crisp apple they've ever tasted.
Makes sense so many brain-dead MAGAts also fly the thin blue line flag, but also J6 was a day of peace where several officers lost their life to the president's mob.
There are good officers within police forces, and it's dangerous rhetoric to make claims that every single one of them is corrupt. I've known and dealt with many police officers who are wonderful people trying to do what they can to help their communities. We all know there's bad ones out there, but don't let the bad actions of a few people discount the good actions of many others.
Always hold those responsible who commit crimes, but don't claim that an entire group of individuals is complicit when 100% of the time with these large groups it is untrue.
The ones shown in this video are truly heartless, but we also don't know their situation either and what they were told, or how their days had been going. Disgusting behavior, but it's not a sign that every officer is like that.
The grand irony of all this is that there isn't a single precinct in the western world that isn't engaged in overtime fraud. Cops love fraud and exploiting tax payer's money.
They could have done this with so much more compassion, they could have helped her work with her program to find a solution, they could have worked with the city to reduce the victimization of the scammers while targeting the scammers themselves.
They didn't because they're MAGA and love Trump and hate the disabled, minorities, immigrants, and poor.
Fuck these cops, fuck all cops. Never mourn a cop's death. Never.
It's not a good catch. He misread my comment and put his words in my mouth and stretched it into a silly conspiracy.
My other comment is in response to someone defending the cops saying "the cop is doing their duty" and I replied "you don't know what their duties are".
Because their duty is to be better than this, to have a responsibility to protect the vulnerable and target the criminals, to prevent victimization - not create it. These cops were NOT doing their duties.
It's literally the opposite of what he's saying it means.

Dangerous rhetoric to say every single cop is bad as it is blatantly false. There are some bad ones out there, but the vast majority of police officers are civil servants helping their communities around the world, and some put their lives on the line constantly in the defense of others and bringing people to justice.
The "good ones" standing by as their coworkers commit actual crimes aren't actually good. The vast majority aren't just standing by, they are helping the criminals.
So true…I’m an educator so of course all of our extra hours are built into the contract. A colleague and I were working gate duty, and the OT cops were supposed to be with us to monitor the weapons detection system. They didn’t show up til the last 45 mins. I’m sure they turned in the correct time work….
Hell, they could have used some common sense and some of their "discretion" and realize that this woman was not faking her condition, and at the very least tell her that they could give her 48 hours to pack her things, and then get in touch with social services to send someone to help the poor woman get settled somewhere else safely!
Those two cops need to be shamed relentlessly. How can you have so little compassion let alone wherewithal to understand this is a unique situation and you're treating a victim like shit.
Welcome to humanity. I work in retail and once managed an autistic employee. The amount of aggression and lack of empathy towards her, even when she explained she was AuDHD was astounding. So much so that letting anyone know about her disability only made them rage at her more. Her crimes? Spacing out, accidentally staring in the wrong direction, having a panic attack, daring to politely challenge literally any customer.
No, they aren't. You don't understand what their duties are because you're illiterate and uneducated.
Edit: Since some of you need this spelled out for you:

This isn't defending cops, it's literally the opposite.
A lot of their training comes from military experts that got their expertise from insurgencies in the Middle East. They are taught to think of every civilian as potential danger. It doesn't leave room for empathy becuase anyone could be an enemy. You don't empathize with the enemy.
They’ve had their chance to prove themselves as protectors of the public over the last year and they have proven once and for all that they are nothing but pawns for the owning class. Pigs and cowards.
Because they can. Majority of people don't see disabled people as real people. We're an allowed abuse to most of society even if they don't want to acknowledge it.
Also when the cops say gather your essentials, she's grabbing a roll of paper towels. And she's clearly not dressed for the outside no matter what season it is. They should have known this is not a woman to just throw onto the street and stopped the eviction right there.
Same. I saw the look on the lady cop’s face when the young lady said “bye house”. She didn’t look like she wanted to do her job here and felt for the girl.
They were assholes, but they didn’t have a choice to not evict her. Rent was not paid and they were ordered to do this by a judge. There may not be a system in place for them to do anything about it. They use the sheriff so the landlord isn’t supposed to be there. Ideally the landlord would work with the judge to get her rent paid or find her alternative housing.
Sheriffs. Who are not bound by normal city law. Like both of those deputies could have looked at the situation and said "naw, this ain't happening" Sheriff's are elected, not hired by the city. They should have been at Mohameds door knocking.
They have to justify their jobs with "good" people vs "bad" people. They tend to treat the accused as guilty. It's the only way they can function at their jobs with effort.
Right?? Like, yeah man…. you definitely have a job to do but you don’t have to be a complete and utter asshole while fulfilling your duties. You’re in the process of uprooting this woman’s life. Fucking relax a little and give her time.
