Police never help. They almost never put themselves at any risk for anybody. They "attempt" to arrest people after crimes. They do not prevent crime.

officers in charge probably had to hurry home to beat their wives and children

Oh my god 😔

Tell me again why my tax dollars need to fund this?

No more cop fantasy promo shows please <Stares in @therookieabc.bsky.social >

She might have been alive and they could have saved her. But instead the cops did NOTHING. They should all be immediately fired.

This is exactly why I am okay with saying “defund the police”.

“If you don’t fund the police who will protect you?” My friends, they don’t protect us now.

Red hot deleted take:

Why provide all these ever increasing police arms and armor, when the rules of engagement call for a less forward, slower posture? “To serve and protect“ has become “to duck and cover”.

cowards too

They would have had to care to do any of that...and they didnt cause the killer was just like them and the murdered were Democrats. No I am not being hyperbolic.

The Uvalde PD school of inaction.

So either they are cowards or complicit.

Isn’t that always how cops spin things?

💔

Shades of Uvalde. 😤😖😖😖🤬🤬🤬🤬

Time of death: 4:28am, probably.

The entire point of them showing up at the Hortman house was to do a welfare check on Rep. Melissa Hortman. Why? B/c Sen. Hoffman & his family were being rushed to hospitals. It was the middle of the night & her husband was there, so the assumption should have been that she was home & injured.

Cops don't protect any of us. If they do, it's in spite of, not because of, their presence. Divest from the cops and invest in communities.

ACAB. It's that simple.

Police probe over and over again to be worthless for “public safety” but really good at advancing fascism and keeping the poor and minority populations under constant fear.

is hat a Tesla

This is devastating 💔

How did they know if she was dead already without checking? Those police should be brought up on charges.

It's sure nice to know the people who are supposed to protect you will sit and watch you die for 30 minutes. Were they part of the plot to have a Democrat politician killed? Always sending the wrong people to jail. It's why Trump never goes there

Maybe they need MORE gear?

ACAB

Obviously Minnesota has learned multiple lessons about just believing the things that police say. Do you think other reporters will ever learn that police lie, always

Cops are extremely adept at coming up with excuses not to render immediate aid to people they want to die

I’m beginning to think that in general American police talk a far tougher talk than any walk they might walk. A lot of them are all mouth and no trousers.

Hey now, they have to get home safe so that they can beat their wives.

Their job is to defend capital and they do that pretty decent

Fire em all, they don't keep us safe.

😭

i guess they didn’t realize the armored truck couldn’t make it through the front door. cowards

American policing is a fucking disgrace to the very concepts of civilization we claim to represent as a nation.

Your daily reminder that law enforcement is under no legal obligation to help you, protect you, or save you

If it was a police officer who was down, they wouldn’t have waited That should be the standard: is it too dangerous to go in after one of your own?

A lot of cops are cowards. See Uvalde response. Many of them are only “tough” if they are bearing down on someone with their guns drawn.

Never, ever, trust cops. Inside prison convicts joke: "What is the difference between inmates and cops?" Answer: badges.

ACAB. The police wear their costume gear to intimidate unarmed mostly law abiding citizens. When it comes to real threats they disappear and hide like the cowards they are.

defund them

How many of us watched Bojack Horseman to the end? How long did he wait to assist Sarah Lynn despite knowing she was dying? 17 minutes. This rightfully earned him widespread hatred. These fuckers waited twice as long. They are just as complicit in her murder as the man who actually did the deed.

What a pathetic and grossly incompetent clusterfuck. It really makes you wonder if the cops would have actually done their jobs if it was a dead conservative politician instead.

To keep marginalized people from rising above their station. The end goal of conservatism is the reinstatement of slavery as acceptable.

nothing to do with courage, they wanted her dead because she's a democrat

No more special privileges for cops: no more qualified immunity, no more carve outs in gun legislation, no more face masks and blacked out badge numbers. If they are going to leave a state representative for half an hour they don't get to pretend to be badasses. They can make do like everyone else.

why do we keep funding the armed thugs who eagerly hurt us but only reluctantly help us?

ACAP. (all cops are pussies).

All that gear and not a single man will wear it and use it for good. It's all for show and to protect their asses because they are too afraid to do their job. So they just stand around until one of them figures out that it's safe for them to actually do something. To "Protect and Serve" is dead...

Were they not in a hurry because they identified with the husband?

Men in authority witnessed a murder and did nothing. Men in authority are, in fact, the enemies among us.
