So he's openly making death threats? Someone needs to arrest him.
We need to make police-police to deal with these types.

THE POLICE PROBLEM

The police problem is that police are policed by the police. Cops are accountable only to other cops, which is no accountability at all.
99.9999% of police brutality, corruption, and misconduct is never investigated, never punished, never makes the news, so it's not on this page.
When cops are caught breaking the law, they're investigated by other cops. Details are kept quiet, the officers' names are withheld from public knowledge, and what info is eventually released is only what police choose to release — often nothing at all.
When police are fired — which is all too rare — they leave with 'law enforcement experience' and can easily find work in another police department nearby. It's called "Wandering Cops."
When police testify under oath, they lie so frequently that cops themselves have a joking term for it: "testilying." Yet it's almost unheard of for police to be punished or prosecuted for perjury.
Cops can and do get away with lawlessness, because cops protect other cops. If they don't, they aren't cops for long.
The legal doctrine of "qualified immunity" renders police officers invulnerable to lawsuits for almost anything they do. In practice, getting past 'qualified immunity' is so unlikely, it makes headlines when it happens.
All this is a path to a police state.
In a free society, police must always be under serious and skeptical public oversight, with non-cops and non-cronies in charge, issuing genuine punishment when warranted.
Police who break the law must be prosecuted like anyone else, promptly fired if guilty, and barred from ever working in law-enforcement again.
That's the solution.

Our definition of ‘cops’ is broad, and includes prison guards, probation officers, shitty DAs and judges, etc — anyone who has the authority to fuck over people’s lives, with minimal or no oversight.

That is a weird understanding of the law. As any elementary school kid (outside the US) knows: Doesn't matter if the suspect stole a chewing gum or killed someone - they need to be stopped and arrested with the least harm possible.
Punishment is done by the courts. Not a police job.
My wife was plating this on her phone and I seriously thought it was a comedy bit. That fucking guy is a fascist piece of shit.

So I always though it would be neat if a few drones with laser pointers would orientate their lazers at any cops with particularly egregious records.
You know... Just so people can watch out for them.
Sound to me like Florida is going to be legislating firearm restrictions later this year.
Sounds like it's time to start killing Florida cops
Is it time to post the home addresses of police yet?
The best time was a year ago, the 2nd best time is today

If your opponent is of choleric temper, seek to irritate him. Pretend to be weak, that he may grow arrogant.

Cops are so brave until you dox them and their families. they realize that it is only 4 cops at the most per 1000 people in most of the cities/towns. The only advantage they have is the "law" (chicken scratch on the piece of toilet paper), communication and organization. Cops = 0 morality. Just a bunch of criminal thugs who for some reason thing that they have an authority over any other human being.
... I don't think a democratic society can survive if this is the attitude of the law inforcement.
It is good to know the rules of engagement
Real "occupying military presence" vibe off the guys who are supposed to Serve and Protect.
Beginning to wonder if cops aren't here to be my friend.
I mean, in all reality, the thing to do is post up well away from anything with a decent scope and pop off a few. Move, repeat. Cops facing east? Be in the west. They pivot, someone in the east pops a few.
People on the ground aren't going to be in a gun fight with cops if they have any sense at all. You want long range shit with good muzzle velocity and a flat-ish trajectory.
The man just declared war on his constant. So don't fucking play.
The onion cant event make shit up to compete with this sick joke of a reality anymore..
Get your optics and suppressors ready. 😂
To think this is the country that wasted 24 years spreading freedom and democracy in the Middle East.

He is saying if you do anything to us it should be extremely violent. I'm sure he doesn't realize that.
To serve and protect... Ourselves.
Slogan "to hurt our own citizens for minor infractions while exercising they human rights we swore to protect and to serve rich assholes". But that's to long so "to hurt you and to serve rich assholes".
