I'm not on the side of this cunt, however how many times are we going to have riots and protesting about police, and then the rioters need the assistance of the police at the same time? I saw one protest, and it was a peaceful protest, about the cops, and someone walks up and slaps one of the protesters and the protesters were going crazy because they wanted to cops to arrest her. Wait, you're sitting here telling them how bad they all are, and then you also want their help when you need it? A cop did step forward and arrest the idiot.

In this example, the people were peacefully protesting that they wanted police to do their job correctly (not the overuse of force beyond what is necessary). Arresting someone for slapping another person ("Simple Assault") is part of police doing their job correctly = aligns with what the people are peacefully protesting for.
Now, if the police then arrested that person for "Simple Assault" (a misdemeanor) and then handcuffed them, threw them to the ground, and put a knee on their neck until they died - THIS would be incongruous to what the people are asking for.

You're literally telling the cops "fuck you you pieces of shit..oh wait, we need the police now!"

You can't have it both ways.

Yes, there is hope that police that don't overuse force is possible.

Here's a tip: There are bad cops in the world. But not every cop is like this. I know you want to believe it because it's popular to say it but there are good cops out there. Sorry to burst your bubble and make you cry. I hope you never need the police since you hate them so much.
