Why should my tax dollars go to funding your private security? Quit leeching off of us, asking for handouts all the time like a lazy socialist. Pay for your own security if it's so important to you.

You joke but most of central PA relies on state police because they can't/won't pay themselves. As a result the state police raids the transportation budget and everyone in the cities have potholes and shitty mass transit.

The irony in that that's exactly what your tax dollars do when they fund the police. They are the guard dogs of capital.

That was sort of my point lol. It was a leading question that can only be answered with that answer.

I know quite a few bootlickers who would disagree with the sentiment.

Yeah, I'd only ever been to Hebron, Kentucky

[–] arctanthrope@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I only know Hebron, Indiana

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Hold up. Is there a state in here that doesn't have a Hebron?

You think there are 49 states? Which one got demoted?

[–] AresUII@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Sry, overlooked that Missouri had 3

~~I counted twenty states with a Hebron.~~

OK, recounted, 18 Hebrons it is.

[–] justaman123@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Yeah, I only know Hebron, Hyrule

Thank God the Obama store and Biden stores are both still open! It would be weird if only one presidential merch store existed.

It's extra funny because it's way out in Hick County, and pretty solidly Republican.

[–] N0t_5ure@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago (2 children)

So what do they sell there, gold plated Depends undergarments?

[–] Inucune@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Anything they can slap a name or face on and jack the price up to 60+ the cost of manufacturing.

Darn, where will I get my NAZI supplies?

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.

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

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.

[–] daannii@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

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.
