    …yeah the blue wall is pretty effed I’m not here to defend it. Although I did read there are signs it might be starting to “crack”, like the George Floyd trial.

    I just… I get frustrated when people say things with zero nuance like ACAB. Even if you hate cops in general there are at least a few good ones. Plenty of officers give their lives to try to save innocent people, and although they aren’t common there are absolutely officers who testify against each other and report each other.

      Absolutely. I think for me it really comes down to where you serve. I come from a city in Germany where notoriously a few people died on accident just after being released from the police station (wink wink). I think in this case, all the cops who worked on this station are complicit in murder, they should be in prison and they shouldn’t be cops. But that doesn’t mean that a police officer who works in a different part of the country has anything to do with the police people in my city. I think this argument can lead to some really problematic conclusions very quickly.
