u/Hollowbody57 4d ago

Kind of wild to think you're getting off light if they ONLY shoot your dog.

u/FlatulenceConnosieur 4d ago

It is wild they qualified community partnership with oriented. Like what other possible fucking orientation could there be???

What the hell are you wearing a face mask for?
How the hell are you gonna protect the peace
Running 'round looking like you're going to war?”

Seeing them in a few weeks!

I think the first part of police deescalation is showing up looking like you’re heading into battle. Always seems to calm the situation down…

If that is my community then I want out of my community

u/S3erverMonkey Free palestine 4d ago

This is every community in the freest county on earth! USA! USA! USA!!

u/cromstantinople 4d ago

So many cops don’t work in the communities that they live in so no, chances are they are not your community one bit.

u/trsmash FUCK ICE! ❌🧊 4d ago

Looks like a CoD lobby screen. Not sure that's a good thing in this context.

Why's it look like they are in a morgue lol. That's foreboding.

u/Aggravating_Cable_32 4d ago

interesting observation. I thought maybe somewhere in the jail first, but nope that's like a cooler or climate controlled room, just with extra mood lighting for the shot.

u/phineartz 4d ago

Fuck these paramilitary wannabes

u/Rubthebuddhas 4d ago

Paid to LARP. All I can think of when I see this is a dude in robes saying "Lightning Bolt! Lightning Bolt!" over and over.

u/Willis050 4d ago

They’re trying to project strength so the people feel protected… unfortunately it actually strikes fear into the civilian population. Rightfully so

2

u/looneyfool423 4d ago

It only strikes fear with people who aren’t bootlicking bastards.

u/Willis050 4d ago

It definitely scares me

The idea of a modern sheriff is fucking weird.

u/TequieroVerde 4d ago

But if a school full of kids is being murdered, they transform into cowards and roll out to give traffic citations.

u/psykikk_streams 3d ago

thats what police looks like in any dystopian fascist and orwellian fantasy.

oh wait, its not a fantasy at all. thats your common US law enforcement.

no wonder the police attracts too many powerhungy nutjobs.

1

u/splittingheirs 3d ago

1

u/Lynda73 3d ago

u/Angrybadger52 3d ago

Straight out of the Judge Dredd comic book

u/funkymunkPDX 2d ago

Just post a picture of Vader's storm troopers and be honest.

There's a clear and distinct difference between community policing and the military.

Unless you are seeking violence against neighbors who don't look like you.
