How are you supposed to help the victim while simultaneously avoid being falsely accused of being the perpetrator?

      What I believe Wildbus8979 is implying is trying to get the person they responded to to understand is “if cops are this bad outside the US, and US cops are worse, then yes US cops can be that bad.” Could they have clarified or spelled that out more? Sure. Could you have thought out your understanding of their words a little more than your initial reaction that they weren’t discussing the US? Sure.

        I think wildbus8979 was deflecting by saying other country’s cops are bad too when the US’s cops is uniquely bad.

        ICE is literally kidnapping people off the streets and disappearing them in countries they’ve never been right now.

      Most of the reports I see about the police being awful seem to come from the US.

      They made an incorrect assumption that some of us are correcting.

      What’s your issue exactly?

            Cops in the US are in the news with ICE kidnapping people and sending them to countries they’ve never been to right now so I’d say cops in the US are pretty bad.

            I’d take a RCMP over them any day.

              Completely ignoring the fact RCs were used to concentrate the first Nations on Reservations. RCMP would be the exact same as ICE in the US if that shit came up here. Get real

              Edit: ffs one of the convoy leaders was literally on the PMs security detail
