    it's too the point where I'm highly skeptical about anything that comes out of a federal agency because trump has politicized everything. Maybe that's too cynical, but after years of watching institutions be warped by the trump white house, that's where I am. In the case of the FBI, Barr controls them and he's without shame

    I care that they do their job without murdering. I don’t believe in participation trophies. I don’t throw parties for people who just don’t kill people.

    Kinda reminds me of the Chris Rock bit about dads who take care of their kids.

    Yes, good job police officers who do their jobs without murdering people. That's what they're supposed to do.

    Maybe I should go back and clarify that I wasn't addressing anyone in here. More so some of the social media tweets and memes I see flying around.

    I'm just saying my opinion is it would do us all better if we focus on the specific ones instead of lumping all together.

    @SlyPokerDog had a good point too though about how cops who may not partiscipate, but still cover for those that do and that is not good.

    Not saying there isn't a wide spread issue. Just saying individuals are still individuals. Not trying to counter what anyone might have said in here.

    You know, I'm completely at a loss as to why the other 3 weren't charged today. The other angle was released yesterday and I didn't realize two other guys were kneeling on him as well.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    The DA said that they're still investigating charges for the other three.

    The burden of evidence to charge a cop is much, much higher than anyone else, at least in this country. I'm honestly extremely surprised even this guy has been charged.
