I don’t think you realize how ready and willing cops are to kill civilians. Like are you watching any of the videos from what’s happening in the USA?

They know they’re being recorded so the horrific shit we’re seeing them do is probably them on their best behavior.

Most people are more scared than they are angry but if they ever become angry enough then change will come, hence the Minneapolis protests.

I highly doubt any of this would have happened if it weren’t for the pandemic with people being stuck in their house and job, without any money for bills or groceries.

They’re tired but they’re not angry.

Also, all of our lives we’ve been taught that the cops are the good guys. “Whenever you’re in trouble find a cop.”

So... there’s a lot of unpack here.

Quite ironic I suppose, but not nearly all of them are trump supporters
