San Francisco’s police union says a city bakery chain has a “bigoted” policy of not serving uniformed cops.
The San Francisco Police Officers Assn. wrote in a social media post last week that Reem’s California “will not serve anyone armed and in uniform” and that includes “members of the U.S. Military.” The union is demanding that the chain “own” its policy.
Reem’s says, however, its policy isn’t against serving armed police officers. It’s against allowing guns inside its businesses.
That’s a broken apologist argument. It’s not “a couple of bad cops”, the problem is systemic. The system is meant to create assholes and protect assholes and to drive out anyone who isn’t an asshole. Blue line and all that. There are no good or bad cops, there are only perpetrators and enablers.
I never said a couple of bad cops, I actually called out that the good ones are the minority. This is the problem, people view something complex like this as black and white when it isn’t.
