    I’d call it pattern recognition. We’ll see whether this reinforces it after lots of fighting and delays about whether to release bodycam footage, I would guess. (Or if they release it immediately that will be a good sign that they think their officer did nothing wrong.)

      It is one thing to be wary of something because you experience it often.

      It is another to spew masturbatory hate at each mention of police.

        I don’t know if I’m quite there yet, but I’ve most certainly flipped from ‘they must have had a reason’ to ‘what is their excuse this time’ over the course of about the last ten years.
