Hi. In today's episode, we look at the false narrative surrounding police "defunding" and crime, and investigate what cops have really been up to since the summer of 2020.

in sane countries police disengages when a suspect starts speeding away in a car to catch them when they stop somewhere else... car chases place everyone in the vicinity in unecessary danger after all you dont have a police force... you have an occupying paramilitary force... maybe it is way past time to kick them out

Was not ready for a Leftover Crack reference. Kudos to whoever got that in.

One of the big problems with our current model of policing is that when people from marginalized groups -- read that 'Black' -- people call the cops about crime they see in their neighborhoods, the cops don't respond or respond TO THE CALLER. It isn't simply a matter of excessive cop violence, it's also that the cops ignore crime in certain neighborhoods and then assume everyone in that neighborhood is a criminal, which then leads to the cops beating the people from that neighborhood if they have the unmitigated gall to go, say, to the nice mall or grocery store in a different -- read white -- neighborhood.

Rape remains a horrifically underreported and prosecuted crime because unless the victim is a pretty blonde virgin or a nun, the cops don't take the report seriously. Rape kits get lost, witness statements unrecorded, and so the rapists never get punished. If the victim is a sex worker or trans or gay or even a blonde virgin who knew her assailant but also had a measurable blood alcohol the presumption is that the victim deserved what happened.

(Sorry about the repeated new comments; I fail badly at tech.) Even property crime is selectively investigated, mostly only to provide reports that can be used for insurance claims, which means it may as well be legal to steal from people without large homeowners' policies. My point here is that the cops aren't even doing what everyone agrees they should be doing, which is actually investigating real crimes. We will always need some system to restrain people who rape, rob, and kill, but at the moment we really don't have that system.

might have lost the whole script but now to start over stronger!

I wouldn't say ACAB if it weren't for the fact that "good" cops never seem to be able to stop bad cops. Alas.
