I will never take an article like that seriously cop or not.....especially from someone as biased as a NAACP member. I have Police officers in my family, have really good friend that are officers, and I work with these guys and that was some absolute BS. In my two years working as an EMT and a Paramedic, I've only seen abuse of power one time and it was toward a white guy. Keep thinking the "abuse" is done daily because the way these guys report it compared to the rate that it actually happens at its night and day.
Diminishing one anecdotal experience with another. You have no bias either with friends and family who are cops lol. You do see how someone could also say, "I will never take that story seriously", coming from you as well, right?
You also miss the fact that
I WORK WITH COPS ALL THE TIME, I don't need to be influenced because I see it with my own two eyes...you don't run calls clown, I do....you don't do anything for the "hood", I do....I don't have any bias because if I did I wouldn't be able to do my job properly but apparently every black man in America that "knows what they're talking about" does. Until you've been to a assault in progress, seen someone be tackled to the ground because he was robbing somebody, then at the end of it have the
ENTIRE BLOCK scream out police brutality just because the guy was black and completely ignoring the fact he beat guy half to death then me and you can talk....and that wasn't one anecdotal experience either. See how little you know??
