Oh, hey, it's the January 6th insurrectionist. Dressed as a cop. How rich and fitting.

Remember how modern policing forces in Britain were formed because it was considered that there needed to be a lighter, more regulated arm of enforcement than the military?

Funny how we in the US seem to have flipped that around.

Cause ours started from militia hunting down slaves

[-] PugJesus@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago

You'd think the Free states would have better traditions in that area, but it would seem we all share in that slaver tradition instead. How... unfortunate.

Specific training for making decisions in high stress situations sounds very sensible for me, especially for police.

[-] jonne@infosec.pub 6 points 3 months ago

Not if the decision is to just start shooting when an acorn falls on their car or someone's holding a pot of water.

[-] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 5 points 3 months ago

You do understand that's why I think the training is a good idea, right?

[-] jonne@infosec.pub 7 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

They act that way because of the training they get. Look up killology. They're taught that everyone is a potential armed enemy ready to kill them, and that they should shoot first and ask questions later.

My favorite are the ones that collect 50% or more from the VA for PTSD. You're getting paid because you're so fucked up and stressed but instead give them a gun and the legal right to use it.

Lol, right?

If you were on disability for a bad back or something, and someone snaps a photo of you doing your best to mow your lawn or anything other than being bedridden, you'd be dragged into court for fraud.

Sounds to me like a bunch of commie gobbledygook

Feel like I got whooshed and I even know this Norm clip well. I miss that man.

[-] BossDj@lemm.ee 19 points 3 months ago

Honestly, it mostly spread through conservative men's channels. "That ANNOYING Sarah Silverman OWNED by right wing Norm! Also women aren't as funny as men!" Because they never show beyond the end of that clip.

Even though the two worked great together and he pretty much worshipped her

They're both funny as fuck

If I worked with Norm MacDonald and he didn't bother taking me down a peg every once in a while, I'd be worried I did something to offend him.
