Magnora, this is just ignorance and embarrassing. Police departments generally DO have exactly that. It's called the "continuum of force", and many states also mandate warnings that were often already in place anyway. With many deliberately clipped snippets of footage, you don't see relevant context. Namely (a) What the officer was called for (possible weapon, felony, violence, gun, active warrants, etc), (b) What the officer did beforehand (verbal warnings, commands, attempted restraint, etc), and (c) Failure of alternatives to work (Tasers have this lovely habit of doing nothing).

I find myself utterly flabbergasted I've gone from criticizing the police and demanding national standards and national funding/training requirements, to somehow needing to defend them from utterly irrational and baseless propaganda. At least learn what the fuck reality is before you try to criticize it.

Sometimes it's justified, rarely, but there are many times a month someone is killed by police who was not in any way a danger to anyone. Look up wellness check murders. The idea what I said is "baseless propaganda," is in reality just you ignoring documented facts.

I think you're the one who misses a lot of dick here, for defending a XY who's the same shit like all the others, in a RADFEM sub. Are you even aware of how stupid you sound? Even women who aren't feminists know deep down, in their instincts, that men are all the same. And then you dumb down yourself to coddle and protect your almighty dad. He's just as gross as every other man, DEAL WITH IT. He has a penis, an Y chromosome and testosterone and was born in the same patriarchal shit all men are born. DEAL. WITH.IT.

I understand this is a high cope, but stop with the handmaiden dumbassery, you look like a fucking clown.
