  • Except that ALL means everyone, which would include the ones doing good by citizens, fighting against corrupt shit, and not quitting.

    It’s not “all cops”, it’s the fucking system that corrupt.

    It’s like making a discriminatory (racist/sexist/whatever) comment and then turning to a person who falls under that group and saying “but, uh, we don’t count you in that”, and plenty of people DO immediately turn shit on anyone just for being a cop.



  • But how do you know they choose to not blow the whistle? Seems quite a number of things are coming to light where things WERE escalated to superiors or even government. These end up under gag-order while “under investigation” - often for years - which means that they reporting officer could be fined/jailed themselves for leaking it, and includes stuff like sexual assaults within the police force itself.

    It’s a no-win situation for good cops, and calling them spineless and complicit without knowing the details of such just makes you an asshole.



  • they’re actively rooting out good cops from the force and punishing them for being good

    Which is actually one reason I have the ACAB acronym. There are good cops, and they get shit from both ends either for not toeing the blue-line or just for being cops.

    If somebody actually does get shot, the ACAB crew is out in full force while often ignoring the lengthy record of crime and violence of the involved - or even camera evidence - while stating it was obviously just a cop looking for somebody to shoot.

    Fuckers are creating a self-fulfilling prophecy where nobody in their right mind would want to be a cop
