    Why would you throw away allies, when they fought for you, and got fucked up for it?

    Yes, I know they’re cops. When did you get in deadly-force fights with Trump supporters to try to physically stop them from smashing up the country? They did. They’re some of the only people in this whole system of equations who I feel like showed the proper level of urgency and courage in their response.

        A lot of police have been advocating against police violence. I think George Floyd and BLM changed a lot of things in ways that almost nobody is aware of or gives credit for.

        Look up the cop who spoke at the DNC sometime. He’s pretty open about saying that his whole mentality used to be wrong, and how it’s changed since he realized some of the messed up stuff that police in the US do sometimes and the harms that a certain mentality can cause, and how he’s been trying to change it in his department.
