This might be the stupidest thing I’ve ever fucking heard wtf

First of all, why on earth is the LAPD in Paris? Do you not have French cops? Handle it yourself god damn.

Second, a major international event like the Olympics seems, to me, like a place you would specifically want to disarm the cops, to avoid them murdering someone and shit popping off.

Third, if I was having a major international event like the Olympics I would certainly want to disarm the LAPD one of the most “shoot first ask questions never” police departments on earth.

i've heard of cop exchanges when there are international football competitions, to share info on hooligans. But the LAPD needing to be there for the Olympics? Armed? Like, the french have gendarmes.

rip to every dog in paris

[-] moondog@hexbear.net 67 points 11 months ago

why are lapd in paris? do other countries police usually come to the olympics?

[-] Realtor_Hate_Account@hexbear.net 45 points 11 months ago

Probably to intimidate anti-Israel protesters

[-] huf@hexbear.net 62 points 11 months ago

france is even paying for the murdervacation of these creeps! incredibly levels of vassalage.

[-] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 24 points 11 months ago

Hey, when you get a chance to import the famously disciplined and well controlled police officers of Los Angeles, you gotta move quickly

[-] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 55 points 11 months ago

Bad country forces other countries to accept their armed police officers.

[-] TechnoUnionTypeBeat@hexbear.net 20 points 11 months ago

I was told only the evul CCP creates armed overseas police stations in order to keep an evul authoritarian eye on their citizens

[-] 2Password2Remember@hexbear.net 42 points 11 months ago

yet another reason to hate the olympics

Death to America

[-] Hexamerous@hexbear.net 41 points 11 months ago

They already unlawfully arresting people during a visit there a few years back to plan this shit.

[-] RNAi@hexbear.net 38 points 11 months ago

I wonder if tjat had the same coverage as the alleged Chinese police in Canada and New York

[-] OptimusSubprime@hexbear.net 32 points 11 months ago

interfash exchange program kelly

[-] has_com@hexbear.net 28 points 11 months ago

Who in the world believes that LAPD officers are so especially competent or uniquely fit for the job that it warrants flying them across america and the atlantic.

[-] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 13 points 11 months ago

They're reserve officers too, not even the regular cops.

[-] FALGSConaut@hexbear.net 12 points 11 months ago

What the fuck is a reserve officer? Like a military reservist but for cops?

[-] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 12 points 11 months ago

Yeah, seems like it, people who volunteer to be cops on the weekends and stuff. Shaq is promoting them on the website hesitation-2

From the article pictured in the OP:

The reserves have gone through the Police Academy just like regular officers, and can "perform the same functions as regular, full-time officers”

Don't worry, they go through the same rigorous training as regular cops, so everything's fine.

[-] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 2 points 11 months ago

The exact same pavlovian kill-response to canine life at only half the price

[-] CyberSyndicalist@hexbear.net 28 points 11 months ago

Cops are in Paris, now's your chance LA

[-] Runcible@hexbear.net 21 points 11 months ago

This is clearly dumb, but at the same time I have trouble seeing France extraditing cops to then have a review board of other cops decide whether they should have to go to trial and then be declared innocent because Americans love boot and hate foreigners

[-] Mardoniush@hexbear.net 20 points 11 months ago

I'm sure the French Police and Gendarmes are thrilled. Perhaps they can sing the Gendarmes Duet while beating up Romani grandmas together.

[-] Dolores@hexbear.net 6 points 11 months ago

so i guess the LAPD are like observing to practice before LA olympics on the next cycle? if Paris needed extra cops for some reason i'm sure closer places would oblige

[-] GlueBear@hexbear.net 5 points 11 months ago

This doesn't usually happen during the Olympics right?
