I was drunk and I turned around and he's just standing there and idk I just went blank. Called him pig a bunch, someone told me to stop and I did, but wowee.

Feel bad that I definitely made some people uncomfortable, but I mean who the fuck shows up the bar like that.

I'll find out if I got myself banned in a couple days. Would be a shame, was making friends there. But if I got banned for telling a cop to eat shit then I guess that's cooler than being a regular nuisance.

For context I'm in a large American city that has seen some shit, so it might be fine after an apology to some of the people that had to listen to it. The bartender thought it was funny

Yeah clearly its the person who doesn't like cops that's the problem not the cop rocking up to get drunk armed and uniformed (or if he was there for other reasons, still pretty much fuck that)

If you made people uncomfortable, its either because they're a bootlicker or just afraid the cop was gonna escalate the situation and for some reason blames you for that (common American response to cop shit tbh. People recognize that how the cops behave is completely unconscionable but still feel the need to victim blame because "you could have just not provoked them" basically)

coptok pisses me off so much when ppl in the comments are like “should have just complied” even when the victim was acting completely reasonably and the cop was power tripping or straight up terrorizing them

It's a legitimate concern that I was putting other people in harms way though. Obviously that's not right, but the reality of the situation is the fucker couldve gone ballistic. Which is also why I panicked and just went off on him, but still, I think there's better ways to do it such as seed resentment in everyone else there. Like quietly.

Obviously he's the monster here, but idk if this was the move. You are right though, I've majorly vibechecked the crowd I'm with we'll see how it turns out lmao

I kinda get it. Maybe I'd feel similarly if it happened to me, but looking in from the outside there's no circumstance where someone else ends up is in harms way that is your fault here. He put them in harms way by going to get drunk in uniform with a goddamn weapon.

I get conflict avoidance, and ofc the principle of being able to yell at cops wouldn't be worth someone else getting hurt, but like goddamn, pigs aren't wild animals, they are responsible for their actions. Hope the rest of the crowd can hang and aren't too bootlicky about it

Yeah same. We'll see. It's a big city, always more bars

Its super fucked that in a country where there are mass shootings practically daily, where it isn't hard for the "shooter" to dress in cop hardware, people with more kit on them that I was issued in the army will just roll into crowded areas unannounced like its okay.

Overreaction? Maybe.

Justified? Absolutely.

Cops should be unwelcome everywhere. They don't do anything but make any and everything worse just by existing

Fuck 12. You did good standing up for the people. Anyhow, last I checked you shouldn't mix drinking and guns. Armed pigs shouldn't be allowed in any establishment.

I think everyone else in the bar is cringe for not joining in and running the pig out

[–] Grandpa_garbagio@hexbear.net 2 points 2 years ago

Like I said the bartender didn't stop me lol

[–] glans@hexbear.net 8 points 2 years ago

maybe he was there to get a pay off rather than drunk

[–] ProfessorOwl_PhD@hexbear.net 8 points 2 years ago

I was in a club once and saw a cop in the crowd, so turned my head to my friends and commented "pigs are here" directly into the ear of a second cop that was pushing past me. He gave me a hurt look and I laughed.

being banned from a bar because you bullied a piggy isnt a mark against you, but it sure is a mark against the bar.
