A friend and I are going to Tulsa this weekend to participate in the BLM protest there. If I end up dead or disappeared remember me fondly.

Don't end up either of those way, Liz.
I just saw a Twitter video of a cop breaking down and crying because her order at the McDonald's drive-thru took too long. It apparently wasn't a parody. I'm not linking it because I don't want to boost its profile but it's super hilarious until you remember that this woman is allowed to carry a gun as part of her job.

I saw that video of the drive-thru cop earlier, jfc. What's worse is how its getting signal boosted as "these poor officers are feeling so unloved right now". Fucking infuriating.

i wish that woman had cried on social media when she got confused about her apartment rather than murdering her neighbor! the guy was literally just sitting in his own home on his own couch. do we need more than one couch murder to see what the issue is here?! she had been a police officer for 5 years.
― weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Wednesday, 17 June 2020 16:11 (three years ago) link
The idea that she was confused is highly dubious

now imagine the guy at the McDonalds drive thru has a gun and could murder you in broad daylight with virtually no repercussions

La Lechera: Amber Guyger was found guilty and is currently serving a 10-year murder sentence. I feel that is an inadequate apology but it’s a start.

Maybe I'm naive, but I think it's a fairly big deal that they charged the non-shooting officer and he turned state's witness. Obviously waaaaaaaay more pressure needs to be put on, but maybe it's a sign of some faint cracks in the thin blue wall.

I just got off a fundraiser Q&A Zoom call for a college classmate who is running for Manhattan DA and I think if he wins, he will do incredible things for the city; his parents were social workers and a core tenet of his platform involves his office declining to prosecute people for things like drug possession and removing police officers from schools so kids don't end up in jail for acting like kids; he also is very much into defunding the police and reallocating resources to professionals more suited to dealing with (for example) issues caused by homelessness and mental illness. Kind of make me wish I lived in Manhattan so I could vote for him.

I always wondered--if something like that happened in a major city--how much of the actual crime perpetrated afterwards would carried out by cops.

a friend who is married to a cop repeated the "oh gee what a coincidence, just the three cops were sick", and didn't register that if the culprit truly was residue from cleaning product that wasn't properly removed, and the three cops came in at the same time, obviously all three would get sick. be different if they came in individually, hours apart

just a note that Philly elected someone similar, and he's turned out to be a total disaster who hasn't followed through on much of what he promised, partly through no fault of his own, but he certainly gets some of the blame. obviously yr friend may be different, but at this juncture, i'm just wary of placing any faith in politicians, DAs, or anyone with that kind of power.
