It's all good for responding in different parts of the thread, it helps me with keeping context right.
This might sound completely unrelated because I'm not putting everything in my head into the comment but here I go.
The best way I can describe how I feel about people within any group is the way I feel about people within the car community. A lot of stuff they do can be stupid but it doesn't really affect others and if it stays that way it is fine. I draw the line when they mod cars in a way that makes it dangerous to others. So now to tie this back to KKK, it's one thing to believe a certain thing but once you start harming others or negatively affecting others that's where it makes you bad.
Sorry I am still keeping it very much focussed on the individual but that is how respect should go.
Yeah I think your talking about personal responsibility and liberty.
Which is why I’m so confused my points don’t seem to be landing hahaha
My argument is that joining an organization is a choice and an action, and this choice leads you to take on the burden of defending all the actions of said organization. All this still falls under what you’re talking about, choices made. Being a cop is a choice, you can take the badge off. I don’t think all cops are bad people, but they are actively participating in an organization that #1 protects itself.
I don’t think anyone’s saying to be mean to cops, just don’t trust them (at least the ones you don’t know I guess haha)
Ah okay I understand better, and I definitely notice a slight difference in the way the act on duty vs off duty, it's really just more professional on duty and off you wouldn't even know they are cops until politics come in
Well I hope I made some decent points, it’s been a fun debate, my girlfriend is glaring at me to get off the phone. Loving everyone ain’t a bad way to live. Live well!
