MAGAts be like
You could say the same about ACABers suddenly becoming fans of police brutality 😏
“You say you wish you could cure heart disease, yet you cheer it on when it kills Henry Kissinger. Curious.”
No, ACAB is not a reasonable worldview in the first place. It’s very ignorant and intolerant. A society needs police, and most policepeople are good and sincere human beings.
You have a fundamental misunderstanding.
The philosophy behind ACAB is that the American police system and its proponents abuse the system and work to keep each other from facing consequences. “Good cops” may enter the force, but they don’t last long, because those who don’t play along and look the other way eventually get ousted, whereas those they tattled on get rehired at a different station.
The idea isn’t that literally all cops ever will always be bastards. It’s that (under the current system) all cops are bastards.
Hey Dick, can I call you Dick? So, Dick, the problem people have with the police is summed up like this: We are tired of the jackboots not being accountable for their crimes against humanity.
That clear enough for you Dick?
You deescalate just as effectively as most police. I’m sure your addition to the discourse will help to bring people towards your viewpoint.
Edit: my previous comment wasn’t de-escalation, it was bringing them up to speed in a way that would grab their attention. Seems like it ruffled your feathers as well.
GOOD.
The point of ACAB is to claim that ALL police are bastards because they all allow some to be as bad as they are. Everyone is aware there are good people.
They are in a position of power and thus should be capable using that power for self governance. Except, they don’t. How often does a cop blatantly break the law and murder a civilian with no repercussions? If they are going to investigate themselves and find no wrongdoing and never improve, then ACAB.
Police actions are the sole reason for the loss of trust. It’s accelerated recently because we’ve all got what would once have been a godlike camera in our pockets now and the means to share those videos globally.
Don’t worry, Trump will get around to fucking that up too.
Advocate of the police state gets killed by the police state.
Critics of the police state pointing and laughing doesn’t mean they’re suddenly fans.
My thoughts and prayers go out to the bullets’ families.
Not really. We all still recognize that a police officer murdering someone is fundamentally bad.
Just because people are glad that a violent, brainwashed magat died bleeding in the street doesn’t mean they think it’s okay that the system allowed for it.
Are you familiar with “even a broken clock is right once a day”?
Lol.
I’m not sure why the downvotes. The meme could literally have two buttons that say “ACAB” and “Justice is served” and it’d have the same effect.
The story is ironic. That’s why the meme works. There can be conflicted feelings all around.
A someone can be a bastard and still deliver justice occasionally.
Ironic doesn’t mean mutually exclusive.
Some versions of the meme have a third panel with the superhero guy pushing both buttons.
Ah, good old “both sides” argument. Half the reason we are in this mess.
I’ve no love lost for cops, but I also have no sympathy left in me while I wonder if I’m going to be able to keep my job, access healthcare, and generally exist as myself in society without someone decided to attack me. Fuck him, fuck the cop. There are no innocents in this story.
So I’m going to take some catharsis in that one of the people who would likely have murdered me or anyone like me in the future is gone.
no love lost for cops, but I also have no sympathy
Yeah I feel that.
This story, though is great: a piece of shit gets killed, and I don’t have to care about what happens to the killer either. This isn’t some guy like Luigi who did it because of how he was treated, it’s a cop. And, given the odds, he’s a giant piece of shit anyways, he just happened to do something useful.
ACABers suddenly becoming fans of police brutality
It’s just two fascists trying to kill one another.
Not me. I still want a bodycam. And am still disgusted that the person checking for police wrongdoing will just be… the police.
a nazi killing a nazi is a good thing
Just leopards eating faces.
Not having empathy for a horrible person != being a fan of police brutality (which it wasn’t even police brutality)
This is the type of criminal the trump pardoned, absolutely disgusting.
On August 24, 2009, Huttle’s three-year-old son, C.H., had a bathroom accident, and Huttle beat the child, leaving bruises on his neck and severe bruises on his back and buttocks.

Clearly the solution is to ban trans people from peeing at the mall
He wasn’t pardoned of that crime, to be fair.
Just the one about being a violent and deranged fascist
Nothing of value was lost…
Wow, cops actually shot someone deserving of it. What’s the score looking like now?
Somewhere in the negative multi-millions, if history serves. Still.
And the entire world collectively whispers under their breath, “Good.”
1499 to go.
I wanna be sedated
Freeze my ass for the next 15 years
It’s only been a week. But sadly, at this rate, it’ll take 30 years to clean up the rest.
If we’re lucky. If we’re not, there is nothing to clean up…
The Lord works in mysterious ways…
Friendly fire.
I love these “feel good” stories.
Rare police W.
nazi on nazi violence
Blue on blue
I read “Indian man” at first and thought there’s no way that Trump would pardon
If the cop loses their job over this, it’s like two birds with one bullet.
Lol imagine that cop gets murdered by another Magat, then cops shoot that Magat, and the cycle repeat.
“I don’t rightly know why we started a-fueding, but by God Sarah, you’re a red hat, you can’t go out and marry a blue hat! Granny would keel over and die!”
Sometimes things work themselves out naturally.
🎶I did the Jan. 6
And I got shot by the deputy
Boohoo-hoo🎶Schadenfreuding: the worst system you know just claimed a great casualty.
