Drop these all over the country and send some to foreign travel advisory commissions.
It shows a genuine, true immaturity from these people and the many here that somehow continue to get away with "fuck the police" stuff all the time. Because I'm 100% positive that every, single person posting that stuff here run into only bad cops all the time.
Because these cops are people too? Unless you're under the assumption that if someone becomes a police officer they forfeit their right to live? Tazers and pepper spray are not 100% effective. And who serves a greater purpose to society, those serving the people, or those that are a threat?
Once you understand that, you'll get why its not "strange."
Approx 1000, although 70%+ of those the victim and/or perp has a weapon. But it's kind of debatable in a lot of cases how much of a threat that weapon actually is and if lethal force is required (or if there really even was a weapon). A strange one I've always thought is they are trained to shoot people weilding knives if they are approaching them at like a distance of 15 feet, which seems ridiculous. If someone is closing on you with a knife, and you have room to move, why don't you increase the distance between yourself and them, maybe deploy a tazer or mace/pepper spray if necessary, but just shooting someone without trying to create distance and deescalate is insane.

How many people in the US are killed by police annually?
It shows a genuine, true intellect from these people and the many here that somehow continue to get away with #notallcops stuff all of the time. Because I'm 100% positive that every, single person posting that stuff here don't deal with an oppressive system all of the time.
Our main issue is that the system is shitty, racist, and regressive and the cops are either perpetuating it or not doing anything about it. The issue is systemic.
Why can cops in other countries defend themselves and disarm perps with knives without killing them?

Because they can't all the time? Why should we risk someone trained and paid on tax payers dollars again. And why can't people get LEOs are people possibly with families and loved ones as well? Why should we defend the violent all the time?
Yes, thats all they do is perpetuate it or not try to do anything about it. Because every single dept in this country has these bad apples. Every department. Im sure that all people deal with is only bad cops. If someone is targeted or has these experiences every single time I wonder why that is. If there are issues like this, take correct action about it and use all proper channels.

The saying is that one bad apple spoils the bunch. Departments either don't punish the cops enough or don't punish them at all.Yes, thats all they do is perpetuate it or not try to do anything about it.

Hey, no blocked traffic. Can we queue up the next objection assholes will have?

Because cops are PAID to take that risk. They get the benefits because they are putting their neck out on the line.
They are SUPPOSED to be doing what it takes to deescalate situations.
A cop who fires a weapon out of fear is no better than a civilian with a gun. And hey, not everyone is cut out to be a cop. But if you put on the badge, you need to get over that fear.
Police should only be firing at verified threats. They should be held to a higher standard.
What constitutes a verified threat?
Take a look at military rules of engagement for one. When soldiers have more restraint than police, it's a problem.
The standard can't be "I was scared."
Lethal force should only be used to stop an action in progress.
Nothing from the past few months meets that standard. They all fall under "I was scared."
St. Paul Police Department spokesman Steve Linders confirmed there was at least one sign in St. Paul and another in Minneapolis. Linders didn't comment on any reaction from officers to the signs.
"We are aware of the signs and Minneapolis Public Works is removing them," Minneapolis Police Department spokeswoman Sgt. Catherine Michal said. "We have no further comment at this time."
The next morning, when Free went by the place where the sign had been, it was gone. The sign was taken down because it was attached to a legitimate street sign, Linders said, but he was unsure if the incident was being investigated as vandalism.

Yes, let's make it a hip thing to insult the million+ US officers that actually do the right thing. That'll show 'em.
On topic, it's a good jab at an area that has clearly had more than their fair share of policing issues, too bad the public works folks will be the poor bastards that will have to work to take them down, lucky them.

Shame the hell out of them until they do something like make an effort to reproach how they are trained and show accountability. Got no problem with this and anyone who does is blind to the problems about how the police are ran in the US. Covering shit up, planting evidence, conveniently having "problems" with cameras, they're shameful.
Yes, we can say "not all cops" and there are those that do their job, but those are the ones that need to speak out and do something about this then if they want to not be shamed and embarrassed by civilians speaking out - whether it's blaring "fuck the police" out their window at a funeral or posting these signs. The cops drew the line in the sand.

http://www.npr.org/2016/12/08/50471...e-slower-to-shoot-but-that-got-this-vet-fired
Basically a vet was able to talk down a man trying to commit suicide by cop, backup arrives and immedietly shoot and kill the guy when he starts waving the gun. The vet is then fired for putting the life of his fellow officers in danger because he didnt shoot the guy straight away. Also the gun wasnt loaded in the end.
The fact that the vet was fired without so much as a squeak from the supposed good apples just infuriates me to no end.

I know it is easy to point the finger at the "good apples", but a lot of that is stopped before it can begin due to the unions.

Hhmm... imagine if enough good apples stood up and made a stink.
The cop was a good apple and got fired(so they do exist), this discourages other good apples from going public because at the end of the day they have to look out for there family and livelyhood, when a cop 'rats' out one of there own the whole system will work against them, some there fellow officers will harrass them, unions wont support them, there superiors wil discriminate against them. The system is screwed, good cops have been made an example of whereas bad cops get away with literal cold blooded murder with a simple excuse "I feared for my life, that black guy was walking/standing/sitting"
I doubt it would make much of a difference.
