Why do people say ACAB (All Cops Are Bastards)?

[Defenestration]

If being a cop is inherently a corrupt position, what alternative solution is there to do? Not have cops and let the streets turn to unnecessary chaos? There are indeed corrupt cops out there but to say that ALL of them are corrupt?

I see a lot of *people* as opposed to a *certain percentage of people*. Not all of us are ignorant when it comes to the majority of police officers who do their job to the best of their ability.

Let's not forget they aren't only dealing with nutters like BLM ... they are dealing with the politicians who may or may not be on their side (there is no doubt, however, that most Liberals are horrendous when it comes to the police in general).

Nothing is going to change in the short term. It will require wisdom and logic to fix this issue and I don't see our politicians being smart enough to realize it until it is too late. They are more about themselves and their parties than about the American people.

It doesn't take a genius to fix a problem like crime. Someone breaks the law they go to jail until they get their day in court where they have a chance to prove they were right or not. What it does require is backing the police and that simply isn't happening in most if not all Liberal cities and states. Why do I say cities? Because anyone who knows anything about Liberals knows they congregate in large cities regardless if they run the state or not.

No no ! 😱 It's the opposite. They are supposed to proove you RIGHT AWAY that you commited a crime. I mean RIGHT IN YOUR FACE, with a paper or something in their laptop etc. They have nothing ? Ok then ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ go away Gestapo agents liars ! They have something ? Ok jail.

well they need probable cause, but they don't need to show it to you or justify it until after the fact.

I mean, I agree that police reform is necessary. I just disagree with the college kids and gated community types who are all like LET'S REPLACE ALL THE LAWMEN WITH SOCIAL WORKERS AND LEGALIZE CRIME because the real ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ issue more nuanced than that.

You've got unions, which enable corruption and dissuade any actual fixing of the problem because the minute you criticize police unions is the minute you get crack planted on you. You've got cops who are policing communities they don't have to personally live in and thus are prevented from having to live with the consequences of their actions. You've also got ♥♥♥♥ hiring practices, where people who should not be cops are permitted to do so for the sake of some wack ass quota put forth by some wack ass hippie who thinks that science is just a suggestion and that feelings matter more than facts. And to say nothing of the social and political elites who essentially bribe their way into being able to use the police as their own private security for their gated communities like the inbred ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that they are.

And in the same breath, they'll say only police and military should have guns lol.

And that police should enforce their gun bans.

I think most of the Professional Protest crowd doesn't hate the police as a concept.

They just want to *be* the police.

[PaulKrawitz]

Not all cops are corrupt, not even all politicians...

Edit:

Thanks for the free points.

[DoomsDay]

why do you pick up saying from dubious source, and your saying is like any other, its only opinion.

[Prinzip]

People say ACAB because at the current stage the system needs ruthless enforcers of the status quo.

" [...]although the police are the System's enforcers, police brutality is not [should not be] part of the System."

There are rigorous tests that a person must pass through before they're put on the force. It's certain that if people suddenly became moral and refused to join, the system would simply import mercenaries and enforcers from allied countries.

And if you give the system too much power, you get either police state, or military junta - for results, consult a country such as Myanmar where the military bombs its own civilians.

It is probably propaganda aimed at undermining public confidence in the police, weakening public support for the police and dividing the people into those who rule and those who are ruled.

Those who know the laws and abide by them generally have no problems with the police.

Objectively, yes. If you follow the multitude of laws laid out, you will not have trouble with the system's enforcers. However, you're assuming that laws are always "for the good of all" which is clearly a lie. Through lobbying, many laws are passed that favor private entities more than the citizens of a nation.

What you're saying is that if you do not criticize the king, you will not be beheaded.

But that is a question of legislation and not of the executive. For the average citizen, there is actually no problem with the police unless they are completely out of line. ,-)

These are not people.

These are criminal scum! And they should be locked up!

[aka]

If people need the police to handle their business, they are not people... they are sheep. But not the cute sheep we should love, but the mindless sheep which give rise to hell on earth.

Justice is yours to take, it is not something you beg another for.

This doesn't mean you shouldn't call the police on a criminal. you pay your taxes... but don't be a victim to anyone.

It's different if you have an Emperor, but if you are just an American or whatever, there is no living person in your nation from whom you should accept victimization.

If my parents chose to be violent to me or my puppy, for any reason at all, I would have had a fat inheritance, and that's the very best outcome they could ever hope for.

My aim would not be to teach them right from wrong, it would be to demonstrate by action the difference between a child of God and a sheep of God. It's not a child's job to teach a parent, nor is it a sheep's job to prevent a child from serving God, which is by defending them, righteous in every measure.

Your soul in flesh is like dry wood, or it's like spirit, but it's not both. Like the life a seed sends forth, so is the fruit of your actions, rather than the limits of your soul's composition.


You're jolly welcome my friends from another pond.

Because laws are not written in stone, they are written on a swing and flex system to allow for manipulative capitalist success. Law as we know it has only been around as long as the history of writing and civilization. Natural Law on the other hand, is quite literally Human Nature.

And the part that does not make sense to me is:

People will acknowledge the infinity of the Holy Wars in the East, but will dismiss the underlying Natural Law of human nature on a global level. Whereas to me, they are one in the same: Both things, an individual can wholly deport their lives either for or against, in support of or in support against.

Which to me, just sounds like one Hell of a way to waste the little time you have to be alive on this planet.

Do you expect people who say ACAB to have rational thinking capabilities, problem solving skills and any form of deep thinking going on ?

[gagnrad]

All cops means all cops because even if they aren't personally corrupt, they take part in and perpetuate a system of oppression against minorities and the poor, operated by fascists, that started as, and continue to be, slave catchers through the prison industrial complex. All cops are bastards.

To punctuate, there are police oppressing students on college campuses across the country, but there weren't any police in Uvalde.
