    cop cities are being built all across america. they train cops for urban combat. the cops hired will be trained in these military facilities.

      If you’re referring to the map on isyourlifebetter.net/cop-cities-usa/ then I’d recommend using its interactive features to look at the “cop cities” they link as having been built. Most of them are deescalation training facilities or just new police departments, not cop playgrounds.

      The map on that website makes its way around to incite reaction, often without linking the website itself. Cop City in Atlanta, however, is real and very concerning.

          I didn’t see that one until you pointed it out. You’re right. That’s just as concerning as the one in Atlanta.

          There’s no reason to throw a partisan wedge. I’m just interested in learning the truth, and there’s a lot of misinformation out there. Personally, I think police should focus on deescalation training and maximizing the use of less-lethal weapons over playing in shooting galleries.

            well i want the abolition of prisons and police and private property, and my opposition to these facilities has nothing to do with the fact that democrats are supporting them. my opposition to democrats comes, at least partially, from that fact.

              That’s fair. We can agree to disagree.

              I thought you were implying my lack of recognition of the cop city in PA was related to being a Democrat. It was honest unawareness, and I appreciate you mentioning it.
