People wonder why I don’t tell my kids to “trust a policeman” and say I’m “politicizing” everything. Fuck that. They just found 215 bodies buried and hidden behind a prison. The police ordered inmates to bury them & hid EVERYTHING. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2024/01/10/dncr-j10.html
@Gambit_1 Most officers are good and trustworthy but not all. It's the bad ones that give them all a bad name.
Whoever murdered those people--and yes it was murder--must be identified and brought to justice. Give them time to investigate and it won't be quick.
@danielbsmith I've know (and know) many cops and there are plenty that are good people and some of them are actual heroes. But the problem isn't that some of them are bad, its that the ones that are bad have guns and authority and abuse that authority without the proper checks being in place. So you are 100% correct. This is about holding them accountable, even if it takes time. But I doubt they will. We'll see...
