I'm not denying the existence of good people who are cops, I'm saying that all cops, even ones that don't explicitly do bad things, are direct and willing participants in the states oppression of the working class on behalf of the ruling capitalist class. The good actions of one or several cops doesn't negate this fact.

@fluffykittycat @Radical_EgoCom @rogerparkinson Or remain silent about the shit that other cops do next to them, at which point they're no longer good cops either.  @Radical_EgoCom @rogerparkinson Iβm fortunate enough to have met 2 brilliant cops. Butβ¦.. Iβve met shit loads of arseholes who are cops. One of the brilliant cops is a family member, the other a man who βgot itβ. My experience? I spent over 20 years working alongside the local constabulary. A sad indictment of the U.K. and its law enforcement officers. @Radical_EgoCom I like to think (and I see evidence for this) that the cops in my part of the world have a reasonably good service ethic. They don't, for example, normally carry guns. The ethics are supported from the top. We do get bad ones from time to time though. We also see gaps in training sometimes when the offender has a mental health issue. @rogerparkinson @Radical_EgoCom @rogerparkinson You can say exactly the same about Tories & people with Right Wing politics generally. They're all Hunts. |
@Radical_EgoCom @rogerparkinson "good cops" either leave, get pushed out, or become complicit, at which point they aren't good
