I don’t like police officers as a general rule. But I also don’t really advocate for death as a blanket statement. This is just a poor taste joke.
Edit: Jesus, ya’ll can stop replying now. No wonder we have genocide, so easy to dehumanized others, and not even notice.
You can stop being a cop. The victims of cops can’t stop being black.
I agree about blanket statements and calls for death, but it looks to me like this meme is just calling cops trash.
No one made such a statement, but thanks for the pearl clutching.
They’re human beings who have chosen to sell their body and will to the state to be used as a cudgel to enforce the state’s will through violence. We would prefer that they voluntarily stop participating in the oppression, but if they don’t they are willingly taking up arms against the disenfranchised, which means I have less than zero sympathy when they get what’s coming to them.
“The state’s will” in most cases is to stop a murderer or a robber or whatnot.
People work for the police not to become the instrument of the state, but to prevent actual crimes. The rest sadly often comes after.
Y’all acting like cops are just useless parasites - good luck surviving a week in a modern word without them.
Yeah because cops have always existed
In before times, crimes were easier to stop as people primarily lived in small communities and it was easy to find out and exclude people, which then often meant death.
But even still, plenty of today’s crimes were rampant. As much as I’d love to see anarchism in action, this requires core changes to the structure of society, and we’re not at the point where getting rid of police will be a positive step forward.
Police doesn’t stop crime, it never has and it never will. You have to get this idea out of your head.
Haha
So in response to cops stereotyping minorities, let’s sterotype all cops? Then let’s take that to the extreme and disrepect a dead person you know nothing about, for laughs.
Even If you knew for a fact that the person in that cofin was a bad cop, does thier family deserve this image being passed around like this. No. One could understand if your motive was to help effect change, and crossing this line would help. But you are doing it for laughs and internet points. There is nothing good about that.Being a cop is a choice.
Being a minority is not.
People are definitely born cops and it’s an immutable characteristic.
NOT 👏 ALL 👏 PIGS 🐷
Hey, don’t talk like that about pigs. They’re usually much nicer than people.
No pig ever chocked someone to death in the street for the crime of being born poor and black.
All cops are garbage. Every single one of them.

What the fuck are you talking about? You ever had a cop find and arrest someone who violated your rights? Must be nice to be that well off! Around here cops just beat students during protests and protect scabs during strikes.
The cops were pretty responsive when Brian Thompson was shot

From an outside perspective, or from a position of ignorance?
At least I personally don’t know any American cops and I somehow doubt that you know any, but I can be wrong about that of course.
I do trust that their countryman have a more informed opinion on American cops than ‘outsiders’ do though.
I’m white. By the time I was 18 I was held at gun point 3 times by the police
None of those times was I doing anything dangerous or illegal.
I also turned 18 around the turn of the millennium, before policing became so militarized.
You have no idea how violent and bad American police have become if you don’t live here.
You mean, whether the cop that did that should be arrested?
They won’t. They have some immunity thing going around.The answer is that all cops are criminals and deserve to be in prison.
Honest question; in this thought experiment, who would arrest and put them there?
That depends. How rich is the victim in your scenario?

Cops aren’t people
That’s funny. I didn’t hear anyone holler “soooie!”
Ah yes they were born cops
Pig on pig violence?
The guy on the left, second from the front… Is he wearing mime makeup? I know given his profession he is probably proud to be white, but that looks like a pressing medical condition.
There’s also Al Bundy on the other side
When you have a funeral at 3 but gotta be at a kid’s birthday party at 4.
CW: lookism I guess
spoiler
I think that’s what happens when your completely soulless and don’t have a makeup team
Theyre just so white the camera has trouble with the reflection
What is the context?
