THE POLICE PROBLEM
The police problem is that police are policed by the police. Cops are accountable only to other cops, which is no accountability at all.
99.9999% of police brutality, corruption, and misconduct is never investigated, never punished, never makes the news, so it's not on this page.
When cops are caught breaking the law, they're investigated by other cops. Details are kept quiet, the officers' names are withheld from public knowledge, and what info is eventually released is only what police choose to release — often nothing at all.
When police are fired — which is all too rare — they leave with 'law enforcement experience' and can easily find work in another police department nearby. It's called "Wandering Cops."
When police testify under oath, they lie so frequently that cops themselves have a joking term for it: "testilying." Yet it's almost unheard of for police to be punished or prosecuted for perjury.
Cops can and do get away with lawlessness, because cops protect other cops. If they don't, they aren't cops for long.
The legal doctrine of "qualified immunity" renders police officers invulnerable to lawsuits for almost anything they do. In practice, getting past 'qualified immunity' is so unlikely, it makes headlines when it happens.
All this is a path to a police state.
In a free society, police must always be under serious and skeptical public oversight, with non-cops and non-cronies in charge, issuing genuine punishment when warranted.
Police who break the law must be prosecuted like anyone else, promptly fired if guilty, and barred from ever working in law-enforcement again.
That's the solution.

Our definition of ‘cops’ is broad, and includes prison guards, probation officers, shitty DAs and judges, etc — anyone who has the authority to fuck over people’s lives, with minimal or no oversight.

"It was just a fu-blam"
Normally cops just shoot dogs for fun
The Marshall may have thought it was an armed toddler.
Und underdeveloped countries with underdeveloped people.
Somebody ID this bastard so everybody that sees his fat as can kick him in the everywhere.
Nothing says I'm a big and strong men than kicking a 5 pound pup.
No redeeming qualities at all.
These fuckers are abhorrent.
"I told you once that I was searching for the nature of evil. I think I've come close to defining it: a lack of empathy. It's the one characteristic that connects all the defendants. A genuine incapacity to feel with their fellow man. Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy."
Gustave M. Gilbert
The quote appears in his 1947 book "Nuremberg Diary," which documented his observations and conversations with the defendants. Gilbert was trying to understand what could drive seemingly ordinary people to commit or enable genocide and mass murder.
Who do you know that fits this definition? 🍊🤡
This seems to have more but I don’t get the facepals so I didn’t see a name. https://www.facebook.com/TheTNHoller/videos/memphis-memphis-safe-task-force-us-marshal-caught-kicking-a-puppy-as-they-arrest/875284741972890/
"From a psychological perspective, harm toward animals is rarely about animals alone. Research has long identified childhood cruelty to animals as an early indicator of later aggression, not because it directly causes violence, but because it reflects deeper difficulties in emotional regulation and empathy development".

You pasted the text again instead of the source.
Here's the source, for anyone too lazy to look it up.
Thanks for the read. It was quite interesting.
And na-ah! Im not lazy... I just have... Im really busy okay?
Looked like a puppy, too.
Yep. Of course they would kick a dog who couldn't hurt them if it tried. Bullies/fascists always target weakness.
Literal puppy kicking evil.
My smartwatch: Warning! Blood is reaching boiling point.
If that was my dog, I’d probably be dead or in jail right now, but you could be sure that that piece of human garbage wouldn’t be around to hurt another animal or person ever again
People can endure a lot. But I know what happens if you are cruel to animals. 4chan has experience in that.
So, dox him and break his ribs.
I hate to be that guy, but they were likely arresting it's owner, and that dog was probably in attack mode. The video is too short to get a feel for the scene, but at least they didn't shoot it which happens far too often in these scenarios.
The most moral army
When Shakespeare wanted to clearly indicate to the audience who the villain was he would bring them on stage to kick a dog.
This overt and intentional demonstration of villainy is to subtle for most Americans to pick up on.
Kristi Noem's romantic partner???? If not they should hook up. Seem to have multiple common interests.
I think she has a chief of pipe, er, staff for that.
Cooooorrrreeyyyyyyyyyy
She's rubbing one out right now watching this.
Someones been watching their training videos from the Krusty Gnome
Another loser POS that should be treated in the same way. Hope the pup makes a quick recovery.
Wow he was personally trained by Noem, but will be severely punished for not taking the shot
ACAB.
A Fucking CAB.
NAME.
Fuck these Nazis
I hope seeing this upsets a few of the people who are supporting this trash. I'm furious.
