I saw a post that was probably fake but still funny. It looked like a screenshot from Chicago Police department post saying

"we will no longer be arresting people for urinating on the trump building downtown. There are too many and we have more important matters to attend to".

Probably not real but who knows. ..Chicago.

I like to imagine it's real.

At least this image probably is real.

Idk. Reminder me of the police post for some reason.

The urinating on Trump's monstrosity is probably fake. The CPD is crooked as hell and as bad as the rest of the cops out there. Worse, really, their Union is basically a shadow government.

I never had any bad experience with the cops there. I went to protests. The big ones and one at a Tesla store. Cops were nice. Pleasant even.

Where I'm from in rural Illinois, cops here primarily ride around or park looking for people to give driving tickets too or to harass.

The more rural, the smaller the area, the worse the cops are- in my experience.

Ive had some really unpleasant encounters with rural cops.

Insisting on searching my vehicle. Threatening me.

Mind you , I'm a white woman. So you can only imagine how they treat anyone else.
