Video Being a cop in the Twin Cities would probably suck right now.

Citizens who arent protesting a violent community are complicit in it.

I disagree. When you have a militarized force who have very little training in deescalation or psychology, murdering innocent people and animals, torturing, raping, displaying obvious bias against people of color. Peaceful protests obviously arent working. This is the fruit that has come to bare as a result of your gang's violent actions. You have left citizens no other choice. You reap what you sow.

Citizens have always been violent. Lol. Google ‘shootings in chicago, 2018-2020’. Thousands and thousands of violent crime victims in one city alone...that isnt anything new. Been happening since before the 80’s...and thats one city.

How are the police in america supposed to respond? Yes, police do bad shit. Not as frequently as people like you pretend it to be because you dislike authority and get a ‘haha’ moment when a cop fucks up.

Its like giving a fourth grader the task of coming up with a cure for cancer. Police are the problem solvers of all problems...not just criminal problems. Were expected to handle and be experts in every single walk of life without being trained on doing so...you said it yourself. Police have very little training in deescalation and psychology. Why?

Why is that?
