Yeah, let's drop all the police shows so noone can see what the police are up to, surely that will make sure they behave better!

"There are dozens of us" I didn't think people actually watched that show lol

Its a decent show to binge small segments of.

I can take a shit and watch someone get arrested all at once!

You underestimate how much bootlickers love their punishment porn.

The police do not punish law abiding citizens. They protect them from the low life scum called leftists. What are good people supposed to do when they are forced to live with degenerates who glorify violence, abuse, criminality and theft? They organize a police force to protect themselves. The police aren't bad because the criminals don't like them, the criminals aren't supposed to like them.

I have literally watched an officer fabricate charges on the spot on that show.

If that is what they do with the cameras on, they aint protecting you when they turn off.

You don't seem to understand what happened. They lost half of all of their viewership. Literally half of all the people who ever tuned in to A&E were only there to watch that show.

You don't seem to understand what I was getting at in my comment so I'll break it down..... I was making a joke because I didn't think many people watched the network to begin with, let alone people that just tuned in to watch shit like COPS

It really is a dumb ass show...but It's a doctoral theses compared to the shows running on TLC

Would love to see a "Training Day" style police reality show with cops (faces blurred, voices scrambled) doing seedy shit like planting evidence and stealing drug bust money. I abhor dirty cops but it would make for good television, no? Wonder if those body cams are 4K...

4k? That would require some serious police funding.

Of course some of us are still trying to figure out it 'Live PD' is art or entertainment.

Remember the glory days of American Justice and Cold Case Files? A&E has been shit since it started centering 'reality TV'. It feels like real investigative journalism isn't a thing anymore.
