BonesOfTheMoonRaleigh cops call release of body camera footage "dangerous" (when they raided the wrong family).
Uranium3006abolish the police. We don't need these gangsters breaking down our doors like that in our community
TheGunslingerIt’s one step from abolishing the police to opening up your door to thieves and asking them to shoot up your house
ImADifferentBirdI think you’ve confused abolishing the police with calling the police.
You people look at a post and automatically apply it to every station around the country. Sorry to break it to you bud, but most cops train long and hard to protect the people they love, and have spouses and kids of their own. After defunding them all to the state of being mall cops, who is gonna come and save you from being shot the local rapist, mugger, or crackhead?
Six months training is long and hard?
Again, with all of the assumptions that the whole system is corrupt
M0oP0oWell I am assuming like myself many of us have first hand experience with the police doing us harm instead of good.
Please elaborate
I was stalked and harassed (like 100s of emails, txts, in person, etc) and when reported to the police they asked if “I have tried throwing it in, I might just like it”. Another was when they pulled a gun on me in front of my store because some one reported a bunch of cars that got robbed (it was me I made that report). Another was when a year after the stalker had a warrant out for their arrest proceeded to preform multiple “wellness” checks on the stalkers behalf (thereby doing the harassment for the stalker), and when asked if they knew who called the checks in they said they did know, but even if the other party is stalking/harassing you they still think they need to do the check.
Want more? When I was a child I was run over by a cop who ran a stop sign while on my bike, I was about to be arrested before another cop showed up, not to help me but to “stop the first from doing something stupid”.
I am not even 40 yet and I have at least a dozen stories where a cop made things much worse, and I am not even in a more a risk demographic.
That is some pretty terrible shit. I would recommend to consider taking legal action against whichever station that has caused you this trouble, but it seems to me that they will just be able to cover it all up and slide it under the pile of money that they put on the scale. The government should really put some effort into stoping acts like this, instead of giving all the money to the military so they can play with planes.
Oh I am on my town counsel, so in a very small way in government. The real piss off is that the cost for the town to have police (we can not say no) has tripped in the last two years.
(Oh and I am not in the states so my government does not spend it on the military, but I get the point)
