Oh my, friend. I'm jealous you've gone this long without knowing. Allow me to end that. Incel = Involuntary Celibate = guys (yes, pretty much only males) who just can't get laid and develop a complex about it and then sometimes they die and never score, but not before causing others pain and sometimes death, like fuckface pictured above on the previous page.

p. sure it's a new pokeyman. its ability causes all the opposing trainers' pokeymanses to retreat to their balls as it recites an excruciatingly detailed list of all the ways everything is unfair to it. it's an instant victory, but you get no experience, and you have to give your opponent all your money while apologizing profusely for bringing it along

Innocent people. I could never hurt innocent people.


If cops were actually held to a higher standard that would be one thing. They're not. The cop that killed that Australian lady will probably get six months paid leave, maybe fired because she was white and sue his department for more free money.

If I killed someone through negligence at my job I would go to jail for at least a few years. If what I did was really stupid I could easily spend a decade behind bars.

The system is pretty straightforward though. If you want to shoot people and not have to worry especially about the ramifications, then become a cop. As long as your IQ isn't crazy high it should be a breeze. If you don't want to shoot people then don't become a cop. The concept isn't exactly rocket surgery.

There are some good cops I think.

E: Some are definitely evil and many probably skirt the law to varying degrees (throwing out a friend's 40 on a 30 speeding ticket, versus covering up murder) but I think there are at least a few, if not a handful of cops who respect civilians and are aware of their own power and bias

Copgoon - Yeah it sucks with having a career where the responsibility of having the power to mete out instant death lies on your hip. When you pull a gun out the odds of killing someone increases by 100%. In my job if I screw up, someone might mutter a four letter word under their breath. If you are pulling a gun blind on some instinct, you are doing it wrong and you are a danger. If that is what they are training you to do, you may want to consider a career change because it is only a matter of time.

You are also pissed off because you have to work overtime and make more money? Seriously?

Because he's a high and mighty police officer. We all know how hard it is to become a cop, they only take the best of the best and he's clearly better than the common man. People should listen to every word he says and do whatever he tells them to, no matter what. Anyone who doesn't behave that way is obviously scum and a criminal and it's their fault if he kills them.

When I was 15 some shithead cop pulled up to me for jay walking and being a dumb kid I thought it was cool to refuse to give my name. Rather than treating me like a dumb kid this cop also decided that acting like a dumb kid was the best course of action and "arrested me" for obstruction of justice and then handcuffed me. Lesson would've worked extremely well had he not lost the keys to the handcuffs so we were stuck there for an hour while another cop car had to drop off the spare keys.

That's my cop story. Mods pls make this confession anonymous to protect my identity.

German police shot 11 people last year, that was a raise from 10 the year before. At least about ~500 people have been fatally shot by the police since the 50s in Germany. 815 people have been shot in the US by the police alone in 2015. Even though a lot more people live in the US than in Germany, that's still a pretty crazy number.

Even though a lot more people live in the US than in Germany, that's still a pretty crazy number.

From my understanding German police also get a poo poo ton more training. I'm not sure about having a college degree but I do know they had to go to the police academy for a few years and then have to be paired with someone for a few years afterward before they are trusted. They were given a lot more authority too. If a Polizei thought you were drinking while driving they will ask you to come to the station for a blood sample. You can refuse, but they WILL get your blood one way or another. It's up to you whether it's from drawing blood with a needle or out of your nose.

We were also told that if you see a Polizei open their car's trunk to run like hell. They have automatic assault rifles in there.

Edit: They are also forbidden from carrying pepper spray. It's considered a chemical weapon, therefore illegal. Training for that stuff is supposed to involve being sprayed with it than running an obstacle course. Si few we were not allowed to carry it we didn't get sprayed. Same holds true for tazers. We didn't carry those either so I didn't get tazed bro.

Highly unlikely.

If you factor in the population difference as a straight number (which of course is a bit too simple, there are more factors) the American police would be "allowed" to shoot ~40 people each year to reach a similar percentage of people shot. They already missed this goal for this year in April. :v:

E: Consider that 11 is a high number for Germany, less people were shot in preceding years. Of course Germany has much bigger gun control so there are less fatal-ending shootouts which probably also makes the police less trigger-happy. A lot of the reports you read on fatal shootings by police in the US are lead-in with "officer saw a gun/saw/thought the person in question was reaching for a gun" which is sometimes true and sometimes turned out to be false. Guns in the hand or presumed to be in the hand of the person getting shot are very, very common in these reports, at any rate.
