Firefighters are the people getting stoned by the population tired of the cops when they actually try to save people's lives from fire.

Especially from what I remember from the time of 2020 rioting and covid, this was the general consensus of goons posting on the Somethingawful.com comedy forums: Firefighters are cops in red instead of blue.

I'm surprised there is not grocery store surveillance of it. Cause it sounds like the cop shot not as a reaction to threat, but after time to contemplate and grow from fear to anger. Which would of course be the diff from self defense to murder.

There probably was, but it was collected as evidence by police and magically vanished into the "currently under investigation" ether :iiam:

Firefighters run into burning buildings, cops stand in hallways while kids get murdered. Clearly these people are the same.

I remember seeing some infographic around 2016-2017 that showed professions and their votes for each party. Somehow, firefighters were more likely to vote Republican than cops. Honestly I'm not sure how that's possible, but yeah.

I don't agree with the idea, but that was thrown around quite a bit by non-GBS goons who were frequenting any riot, police, or covid related thread because the ones in the politics fan forums weren't enough for them. Again, I don't agree with it and I think firefighters as a whole are on a different level than cops, however we lost a couple firefighters locally who spent their last days on ecmo.

Yeah I’m just going by personal experience from people I know in who have experience with both (EMT, hospital workers) and their general consensus is firefighters > cops, but that’s obviously anecdotal and subject to a lot of variables.

Police are different, in that the job involves brutalizing and threatening others to make yourself feel big. There’s probably big dumb masculinity energy in all those jobs too, like slapping each other’s balls in the show to prove they’re not gay, etc.

This is absolutely ridiculous.

Firefighters don't murder people and dogs. They don't have guns. They aren't commonly used for riot control like in the 60's. They literally sign up to help people when they're at their worst. Cops sign up to put them at their worst.

They are not the same.

I admit I'm biased. But the roles of the two jobs are entirely different. Firefighters have no sort of lawful authority to do detain anyone or anything like that. There is no authority we want to work over on anyone to show we are more powerful or superior. We just want to help hurt people. :shrug:

Three cops filmed in Arkansas beating the poo poo out of a guy on the ground. One cop punches him about 12 times in the head. Two knees to the head too. Guy just trying to cover his head. Two others kneeing/punching/kicking. Horrific video. Woman filming is told to "SHUT THE gently caress UP"

I think I'm done with the internet for a while.

I heard the cops are suspended and being investigated by the state police. So, you know, justice has been done.

It looks like this may have been a targeted attack (I'm seeing reports of her having beef with the management of her condo building), so men are still running the "shooting randomly" game. :haw:

The Atlanta Metro system thing identified her, but I'm going to wait a bit before posting any further info. A LinkedIn post hinting at retaliation has been discovered, but I'd prefer to wait until the authorities identify her before passing this along.
