Police unions are a major threat to democracy.
Man, I love unions and support unions and wish I had a union job, but absolutely — police unions are a very different thing.
They're about protecting even the worst cops from even the slightest consequence, and yes damn it you're right, they're a major threat to democracy.
Police unions haven't been attacked and legislated against the way labor unions have.
That is the hilarious. Reports asking questions of police should not be causing such a reaction.
We should, I guess, admire the officer's restraint for not blowing the reporters' head off at the first sound of a doorbell.
😅 it's sad that is a likely thing to happen these days 😔
Wow, that article just kept getting worse and worse the deeper you read. Fuck the LAPD
I'm convinced that the LAPD is rotten to the core, and that everyone who's employed there has to know it.
I'm not convinced, though, that the LAPD is any different or any worse than your local PD.
Hey, LAPD: if you've done nothing wrong, you have nothing to fear!
