      Someone recently linked me a compilation of cops losing gunfights, and there are multiple clips where the pigs are trying to shoot someone in the back while they run away, but miss over and over. So, so many of them really are dogshit with their weapons

            I don’t really agree with that, ideally they shouldn’t even have access to any firearms at all. Some forms of peace officers historically never carried arms.

            Especially for people who grew up around violence just an officer near you wearing a gun ratchets the stakes up considerably. Then of course they always want to take it out, wave it around and proceed to violate every single element of firearm safety like a sick form of bingo.

              Disagree with what? You’re talking about how you think things should be, i’m talking about what their actual job actually is. They exist as enforcers for capital, and a lot of them are bad at it.
