    I’m curious:

    If a cop shoots an “ICE Agent” because he “feared for his life”, who is the FoP gonna support?

    🤔

    So, if you really are there illegally, would it be better to claim you’re a police office and have a fake badge, and see if that’s enough to get them to walk away?

    You’d be gambling that it was a random stop and not a properly targetted one, which seems like the odds are in your favor?

    You’d be impersonating a cop, which itself is a crime, but if they’re going to throw you out of the country anyway how much worse is that? Would they really imprison you vs throw you out if thats as far as you went?

      I don’t know how it works these days, but historically you would be charged with a crime, sentenced to prison time, and ICE would be contacted to deport you after you served said time.

      That’s when shit actually made sense, however, who the fuck knows now.

    I’m shocked that Chief Piggy doesn’t want to shut down the gestapo. He’s just sad that they’re picking on his fellow pigs.

    Man, I sure am conflicted. On the one hand, ICE is rapidly becoming brown shirts. On the other hand, the irony of cops being upset about having guns pulled on them because of their race is pretty funny.

            It is odd how young Hitler was compared to Trump

            But, you know, Stalin was a successor. Trump will have one too.

        He fully understands it, it’s just the us vs them mentality that cops have. He just doesn’t want the facade to crack because he knows he’ll be in deep shit if they say the quiet part out loud.

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
