It’s a fact. Sometimes it’s like taking an exam where even though you’ve studied for a week, you’re going to fail anyway. You just can’t win with the police.

My husband, a middle-aged white male and, btw, the gentlest soul who ever walked the earth, was pulled over in a Whole Foods parking lot for failing to come to a complete stop when he made a right turn when the light was red (legal at this location). No pedestrians or other cars were present, just the cop behind him…

Because clearly she is a supreme asshole.

I get the feeling that was the intent. The kind of people who treat rape victims as criminals aren’t exactly kind, upstanding humans.

Before I had even graduated from the Police Academy, I heard that: “Your job is to make it home safely at night” along with, “When you’re a cop, everyone lies to you, even if they’re innocent”, and my personal favorite..... “There are two kinds of people...Cops, and Assholes”.

They do that in some countries.

yes and its the bed we made with the way we vote.

nope not even just mental issues they will just fucking kill you http://www.nytimes.com/2015/08/08/us/…

That no longer seems to be the case:

It was the cop’s way of dropping the mic on the mother - her way of saying “you can’t touch me, lady, send all the cards you damn well please. You can’t touch me.” No respect, no remorse.

Because she’s a cruel, heartless monstrosity that wanted this young women to know just how little what happened to her son mattered. She’s also likely to be a sociopath, giving them guns and badges seems to be all the rage these days.

For a job at Sears you have to fill out a personality assessment for fuck’s sake. You would think the process for becoming a police officer could include something of the kind.

Yes. This. OMG it drives me up the wall when cops say that! Being safe is not your job, your job is to make sure other people are safe. *hisses and climbs wall like a lizard*

Exactly. “I don’t care about your fucking baby, shut up.”

That’s crazy!

I’m so sorry.

Sounds like the Mob.

Yes. There was something, non-violent, going on outside of my house. Lots of noise, yelling, drunkenness... I thought about calling the cops but then looked outside and saw that they were just young black men goofing around. Sure they were annoying, but I wasn’t gonna have their blood on my hands. Calling the cops…

Because she’s an asshole.

it’s important not to forget
