Im sorry this fact triggers the low IQ on this board

quote:

In the 1989 landmark case of DeShaney v. Winnebago County Department of Social Services, the U.S. Supreme Court held that the failure by government workers to protect someone (even 4-year-old Joshua DeShaney) from physical violence or harm from another person (his father) did not breach any substantive constitutional duty.[3]

Hopefully some still have some human decency though.

Yet they are paid with the tax dollars of those that they have no obligation to protect.

they sure can act quick when it suits the agenda. minding your own business alone on a beach and you're surrounded by five fat cops because MUH lockdowns. angry mom concerned about her kids education, gets strong armed and dragged out of school board.

You were having a BBQ with a few friends in the backyard? gotta see them vax papers you terrorist, can't be cooking.

when it comes to school shooters these guys tuck their vaginas behind their asscheeks and do nothing. armed with expensive handguns, kevlar vests and a utility that has a glass/window/windshield breaking tool. yet they stand by like cowards and expect a full paycheck.

in general cops are not your friends, particularly in larger metro areas where there's lots of them.

Just weird that you all take the actions of these few cops and extrapolate to the entire group of LE.

We've heard and seen tons of stories of cops, firefighters, etc going above and beyond the call of duty putting their lives in danger to save people.

You want to talk about simple minded? This thread is it.

I'm going back to watch a video about The Edge of Tomorrow cuz I'm tired of these dumb threads and reading people's opinions on things. None of you know what you're talking about. Neither do I, and that's why I'm checking out. Keep up the useless bullshite discussions.

Talking points are out it seems. This is the second thread with this exact premise in the last couple hours.

I guess the OP was too low IQ to check and see if anyone had already come up with this gem.

You're a cop, you're the only line of defense between children being slaughtered. Get your arse in there.

I don't get all the downvotes for this post.

It's just a fricking fact that the SCOTUS ruled that way.

Also, it's cops who were the ones totally willing to crush our freedoms of association during Covid, and they did it in an instant.

Not saying all cops are bad, just saying the institution isn't nearly as praiseworthy as so many in here make it out to be.

Only thing I can figure is that people read it as a defense of their inaction. I knew what you were saying.
