I don't advocate outright rudeness, but kindness and appreciation just helps them create their whole "the good citizens who I protect love me - it's too bad there are bad ones out there who need to be crushed." They need cold shoulders, shuns, and shaming.

"Flag-like weapons" sounds rather orwellian to begin with.

Well, "flag-like weapons" was closer to the truth than what the noble, report-writing cop had to say:

On the flip side, being unkind to them makes them feel like the world is out to get them and that the only people who respect and understand them are the other cops around them. The correct answer is for me to be black and/or disheveled and/or angry looking and incredibly nice.

A variant of this image is where the horizontal blue line takes up one of the white stripes in the US flag. The red and blue colors have been changed to black. White stars and stripes remain white. There is still a prominent distinction between Cops and Not Cops, but this time some of the Not Cops are also white. As the blue line takes up a white stripe, it reinforces the idea that Cops are white.

If cops feel the world is out to get them they're free to quit. It's not like being born black, or stuck in a poverty spiral.

anthonypants posted:A popular symbol in police iconography is "The Thin Blue Line". It is a blue horizontal line across a black field. The significance of this image is to show that cops are the only thing that separates the Good People from the Bad People. It makes no attempt at defining which side is Good or Bad; the only things it distinguishes are Cops and Not Cops. I know the symbolism well. I worked with a police force for about 6 months, in a rather large city. And I studied policing as my BS in college, and at the time most of the research ongoing into policing was around Community policing. So the divide between police/community was super well explored. That's why I know that if the community just gives police a cold shoulder, they'll look to each other for support. It's what happened during the "Professional Policing" period in the 80s, and resulted in the police being separate from the communities they are supposed to serve. Because po-po see their job as super stressful and hideous and they think no one respects them (even though they're wrong). If you press me for what the "right answer" is, it'd be "Bring back a focus on community policing" and "eliminate # of arrests as a metric" and "increase de-escalation training budgets and limit access to firearms while on duty".

If you're convinced that you're talking to a "good cop" (and you wanting to gently caress her doesn't count, that's unconscionable) the only correct way to make them feel is "like doing something about the bad ones". We need help from them, and they knew the job of protecting us was dangerous even if they didn't anticipate it would mean from their coworkers.

Fortunately the entire thing happened right across from a Whole Foods Market or w/etf, so lots of boomers had seating and the attendance easily hit somewhere around 1500, there was no way to get a higher vantage point of the crowd but we kept making everyone on the franklin side move in closer, and it ended up with hundreds of people spilling off to the south and eastern side of the square. Then because too many people showed up they canceled the march, which resulted in some anarchist kids and enthusiastic idiots all deciding to march against traffic in the highest-traffic one-way street in Eugene - West 11th. Some redneck got pissed off and some kids from the bus station who'd jumped on board (or led, it's kinda fuzzy because nobody involved with the march was around by then) might've slashed his tires. So yeah, if you protest in Eugene - keep it the gently caress away from the bus station(s). Error 404 posted:This is the actual thread, the other one got closed.

Yeah in Eugene, I had already left and am glad to have, because apparently a hundred or two folks decided to block west 11th in celebration of our peaceful demonstration, and then some dude in a modded truck hits an airhorn and claims people pushed him into another car and it went downhill from there because dude - don't be a redneck in front of the eugene bus station.. They're animals! https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10209363808984577&id=1004341022&hc_location=ufi (his tires were repaired for free from the store literally 50 feet away, FYI) coyo7e fucked around with this message at 06:07 on Jan 30, 2017 |

I was wondering what was going on with that. I stayed to listen to the speakers, and then the small crowd that hadn't left marched down to Pike Place Market, no idea where everyone else went.
