Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online

We had cops for neighbours at one place and one down the street in another. Both great people. Used to get together with them, kids played together, etc.
Great people don't remain cops for long, so I really doubt it
I still know one of them. Have been an acquaintance of another cop for 15 years. Still great people.
Until they witness their coworkers do awful things and say nothing.
And I can tell you with certainty that's what they do, because the ones that do try to do the right thing are fired at best, and literally murdered at worst.
!! What country do you live in?
The US. Look up Christopher Dorner for just one, high profile, example.
This must be US thing I presume?
ACAB applies worldwide, not just the US.
That's pretty bullshit. And I'm sorry for everyone that thinks this is the case since they probably doesn't meet normal ones that often as I do...
