steroids can be good. Dont we want our cops more capable of doing their job?
Awww. They all swole up like a bitty baby
Wait. So the cop mayor finally does one thing right with his out of control police force, and is immediately sued by a bunch of roided up angry cops?
Checks out.
Hmmm. The people who are called in to bust unions have the strongest union. There's got to be a lesson here somewhere
Cops aren't workers.
They are management.
I once was making a left turn in a busy city road. As there was a break in the crowd, I made my turn, and out of the crowd, on the sidewalk, zipping down the opposite direction of the crowd comes a cyclist out on nowhere, and almost smashed into me. Of course the cyclist was at fault for being on the sidewalk and going against traffic, but in a cyclist city, those idiots are always blameless.
Anyways, a roided up cop on a bike chases my car down and punches it, leaving a dent on it. I pull over and he immediately draws his gun and starts shouting at me. He punches my car again and continues raging. Anyways, turns out the cyclist was the one who broke the law so the cop couldn't cite me, so instead he gave me a ticket for an illegal left turn, even though the sign above said it was perfectly fine.
You pulled a hit and run and are complaining that you got a ticket and a dent?
He hit ME. and took off. I stopped.
You call it a hit and run when you're not paying attention and smash into the side of someone else's car?
almost smashed into me.
According to what they wrote, they did not.
Their tiny cop brains can't compete with the contradictions. I gotta say, I like seeing conflict between these two parties.
but cops NEED to use illegal drugs so they can be better than you
That's cool, cops mad because they want to be able to pump themselves full of illegal drugs known to cause increased aggression and paranoid delusions without facing any consequences. I mean, when has a cop ever faced consequences, so it must be truly mystifying to them that they're being told to ~~stop taking drugs~~ tone down their rampant drug use.
