    Protecting And Serving: Cop (mis)behavior and consequences general discussion

    I don't hate cops to the extent that I want to burn down the breadth of the country in order to take them out. Though that's an exaggeration. It's far more likely we'd see qualified immunity come back, just either backdoored or via judicial refusal to hear cases. So likely worse then the bad...

    Protecting And Serving: Cop (mis)behavior and consequences general discussion

    Cool, all the police are sued out of existence by everyone they have ever looked at. Who do you get to replace them and how do you convince them to do the job? Fanatics looking to totally destroy qualified immunity are acting like they've never seen any of the current cop cancel culture the...

    Protecting And Serving: Cop (mis)behavior and consequences general discussion

    In practice that would just let the State double dip on fucking people it doesn't like. Judges already defacto side with police, letting them then dismiss cases they don't like and stick them with the bill? You keep thinking that the courts in general and judges in particular are neutral. This...

    Protecting And Serving: Cop (mis)behavior and consequences general discussion

    Making the people suing the State pay legal fees sounds like a good way to suppress people disliked by the State. The State already has a bunch of other intrinsic advantages, this would just add to it.

    Shit what do you think all the arrests for wrongthink are, the UK especially is hard into that? Obedience is a habit.
