    I’m from the city this cop was from and if I remember correctly he was shot in the head and survived but obviously not the same. Maybe he died I don’t really remember.

    I’m not a fan of the police but on a human level some awful stuff happened to this guy.

    Edit: looked it up because I was curious he underwent brain surgery and survived.

    Fuck the police as a whole tho

      I used to have that same belief but watching “good” cops cover for bad ones made me realize they’re all scummy.

        I agree even this guy but life has nuance and I felt this was info that is pertinent to the meme.

        There is always some nuance, but in general most morally upstanding people drop out of training or are pushed out of the force in some way.

        That’s the rub, ask yourself why doesn’t it happen more often that a “good cop” calls out a “bad cop?” It just seem so rare. I don’t understand why, these are people from the same community. 🤷‍♂️
