Why the fuck do the police still use horses?
Are there still bandits in the wild west robbing steam trains?
Fake democracy
The police badge is the most common gang sign that I regularly see.
Fuck USA! USA!USA!
When criminals wear badges.
Defund the entire department until they bring forward the cops who did this
LAPD is a fucking gang
Who would have thought the LAPD would commit such blatant police brutality? Oh wait, everyone.
If you ever wonder why police budgets are so over-inflated, it’s because an absurd number of their unqualified thugs get sued for shot like this, and they have to pay out huge amounts of compensation. You’d think they’d learn, but they won’t as long as they keep getting basically unlimited budgets and no real consequences.
NYPD pays $600,000/ year as pension.
They have to be destroyed by any means necessary.
I made an argument with one of my co-workers that I think that police unions should have to pay all legal bills and payouts for cops getting sued for violating rights. He responded “That’s a quick way to get rid of all police unions,” I had to stop and think if that would be a problem or not.
My point was the police unions are the only ones that can hold their members accountable. If they forced their members to act better instead of being thugs then things might change. If Police unions don’t hold themselves accountable then no one will.
Under Capitalism, the police can only ever be the millitant arm of the bourgeoisie directed against the proletariat. ACAB has value as a phrase because the police only serve Capital. As long as Capital is dominant over humanity, rather than the inverse, police will be used primarily against the working class.
No, the
legallawsuit payouts don’t come from the cops, their insurance, or their pensions. The taxpayers foot the bill for the lawsuits by losing money from their city’s funds.
I made a clip of this in better quality from the actual video

The police representative blandly spouting copaganda and saying how much the LAPD cares about safeguarding lives, while a protestor is currently getting hit with batons and run over by horses, is the most US thing I’ve ever seen.
What about this?
And of course some woman is screeming “Oh my god” repeatedly. Really helping the situation here madam.
Dang I forgot about that one.
On top of my head, I remember there’s a lot more like them, but can’t find them right now.
looking at how even the horses are disobeying being forced to harm people - we can conclude that calling cops animals is not appropriate - ghouls and psychopaths seems more adequate but don’t let me stop you from listing all other fitting names you can think of:
I like the word ghoul though, I don’t wanna ruin it with their taint
tyrants
There was yet another incident of horse-involved police brutality posted to reddit this morning:
They have to be killed. One day you’ll learn.
How can we as a society tolerate this?
Because the bulk of society in the US, the working class, has no say in the matter.
Bullshit. The working class is your only hope of fixing this and they’re doing fuck all.
Currently, the working class of LA is protesting. There’s a chance it spreads now, too, which would be great, but hopefully this also leads to organizing.
They’re line dancing.
And burning down waymos to block the progress of police and the millitary.
Abject cowardice and laziness?
Not surprising at all, there’s been so many cop brutality incidents over the years. Off the top of my head, a cop broke the arm of an elderly woman with dementia and the cops laughed and joked about it. There was another case where the cops make a man crawl on floor before executing him. People don’t just become monsters overnight. They’ve been trained over the years to behave this way.
Bodycams are making a lot more of these available now too. Saw a brutal one where cops paralyze a handcuffed guy by breaking his neck, then they sit prop him up in a sitting position and complain that hes uncooperative because won’t move.
That was a year ago, the dude is dead and the cops got off scott free.
It makes it more available to view, but it hardly does anything to prevent it from being done because the cops face no consequences regardless usually.
George Floyd? Iirc one of the officers went to prison for that
No, sadly most of the abuse never makes widespread news
The job also attracts monsters and that’s who they want to hire
