Let's hope they tase some more rich white guys so we can get them on board finally.
They literally won't go in to those neighborhoods.
I used to think I was going to be a cop, I joined the explorers and hung out with cops, I went on rice alongs. I spent entire shifts following cops around watching them do cop shit my senior year of high school.
They would spend most of their time doing traffic patrols. The "good" cops hung out in more middle class neighborhoods, the shitheads specifically targeted poorer neighborhoods. No one patrols the affluent areas. When a call comes in they argue about who has to go. A domestic disturbance in the trailer park would get every officer not currently arresting someone out to see what's going on, because they're bored.
They know not to pull certain cars over, to look the other way when certain people are caught drunk or high in public. That's just the extent of the stuff I personally saw.
Doesn't surprise me, although eventually they'll get so brazen they'll go after everyone, not just the poor.
But that's not how it works. The police are owned by them. Unless you mean that they get out of control of anyone and then attack their old masters as well. But that seems like such a bad idea that I don't know if even cops could be braindead enough to do that.
Rich people have private security and doctors. If a rich kid is having a seizure an ambulance will show up not the police and if they did private security would escort the police if they have emt experience
