I did not indicate what the percentages are. I can edit to remove "small" to eliminate the bias you refer too. I said small because my educated guess would be less than 10% of cops are absolute pieces of crap that should lose their badge immediately. I may be wrong, but that is not the point of my comment. Whether there are bad ones, and whether there are good ones is not up for debate because we are 100% aware that both of these groups exist. I hope we can agree that it is a ridiculous statement to say there are NO good cops across the entire world. I wasn't even being country specific.
Therefore my question remains. Out of simple curiousity. How can someone start a comment with "I hate cops more than anyone", without having some strong reasoning. I am curious on that reasoning. You are not the person I was asking as well. Simply a person who wanted to Red Herring my query.
A People and a Person are not the same thing.
*Hate the person who does a bad thing, not a people because of the person. Same logic applies with this: Hate and draw and quarter the piece of shit cops and make them lose their jobs, but don't hate the entire "people" of officers for the "person"*
And if anything, hate the system that allows the bad actors to thrive.
Simply a person who wanted to Red Herring my query.
You latched onto one single statement the person you responded to said and ignored the crux of that persons comment, which was a couple paragraphs long and that highlighted a perceived bias that you hold
His end all point was to memorize phone numbers, and included some comments on the video in question and the specific case.
I understood that all and had no questions with it. I only had one question, and it was why he started the entire thing with a hyperbolic statement that promotes tribalism.
Am I not allowed to ask a question? I would not consider it "latching on" simply because I did not state that I agreed with the rest of the things that ProjectOrpheus said.
If I understand and agree with something, no question is needed. You commenting on a question that was not directed to you was more of "latching on" than anything ive done, even though I am wary to describe it like that.
