A lot of people can't see past their hate.
I'm sure Genevive Dawes learned to see past whatever hate she had after she fucking died at the hands of a Dallas police officer who had been internally investigated ten times and then was acquitted for the sole fact that he murdered her while being a cop. I'll bet it's hard to hate someone when your mother is burying you in the ground because this Alex Jones' inbred cousin-looking motherfucker wasn't put in jail after ten documented cases of physically abusing civilians.
Unless you're suggesting that this man was involved in that situation, there's room to feel sympathy for both murder victims. I know I do.
This man was a teacher and coach for 16 years who only recently became a police officer, and now he's gone. If your first reaction to this news isn't sadness, then I don't know what to tell you.
This cop is either one of the ones committing atrocities, or one of the ones that stand by, hold the "thin blue line", and enable the ones committing atrocities.
ACAB has no exceptions.
Did you just ignore the second paragraph?
You know that there ARE some who get into that for every correct reason?
Wow why are you so hateful, can't you love these fine people?
Cops? No, never.
I think you might've missed that Timbits was being sarcastic.
I do tend to hate people who do violence for a living. Do you not?
