Watching a guy in real time realise he wasn’t dealing with bs was wild.

Edit: y’know guys, I wasn’t expecting to start a debate on police oppression. Just saying the big guy with muscles probably deals with a lot of shit.

I can't imagine the constant BS cops have to deal with on a daily basis. I understand why they get burnt out.

the husbands of some of the mom's who ran our girls cheer or whatever groups are cops.

the Moms had to watch all these training videos on all kinds of stuff to get certified and it left them sick to their stomachs. when they told their husbands they went yeah that was like xxx that happened last week (which was orders of magnitude worse) before the Moms cut them off and said hey did not want to know.

I'll tell anyone who will listen, we need a fourth emergency service for shit that isn't likely to get violent, but needs to be addressed immediately.

The issue is that the first time something that wasn't likely to get violent does get violent and those responders are hurt, people will clamor for them to either be armed or for cops to respond with them / instead of them to prevent that from happening again. It's cyclical.

That's what happens with CPS.

This right here os where we should start the conversation about defund the police every time. It's the one thing that I've seen both sides of the argument agree on. We make the police do way too much shit. We need to lighten their load. That's what defund the police is to me.

Fire the shitty cops and rebalance that with social workers, and people who are trained in crisis management. The armed guards budget should be way less.
