Haha that acronym gave me a chuckle.

Yeah I get it, I just don’t like when things are reduced to all x’s are y’s, think that kind of polarised thinking isn’t helpful when the world has a whole lot of grey in it. Equally if someone is happy to post a comment like that online I don’t think there is anything bad about chatting it through like reasonable humans.

Okay I agree with the idea of a rotten system as think that generally many legal or government institutions are rotten and self serving for the rich.

But the flaw in the argument from my perspective is that if all the decent people don’t go into the police, the ones with integrity, a moral compass who genuinely try to help people and do the right thing, then that leaves the bad apples.

So for going into a system and hoping to change it for the better, help/protect their community from criminals and the bad apples and make a real difference in lives, by that logic those people striving for better are still bastards and that just doesn’t feel right to me.

Again no hate here just a genuine conversation

Trouble with that theory is that I think regular people won’t hear something like ‘All Cops Are Bastards’ and immediately think ‘well they probably don’t mean all cops’. It literally says it there.

Maybe because I’m Scottish living in Scotland I’m separate from the US side of the movement/argument but knowing so many good people in the service who have probably done more for their communities than some people spray painting on walls it just sounds so blatant. If it was a different slogan then I doubt people would have an issue with it but not everyone hears all the details about what it apparently means online or whatnot, they just see the words.

No desire to be pedantic at all, just explaining why a lot of folk won’t get behind the message.

ALL cops you say?

I have many friends and family who have joined the Scottish Police and given years of their lives to serving their communities, risking their own lives and health. Should I say fuck them too?

I joined the police for six months before deciding it wasn’t the career for me and got back into charity work. Are you saying Fuck Me now or just for the six months I was in? Did my fuckery expire?

How can thousands, millions of people doing a job be reduced to such a binary sentiment.

Hey! No lollygagging!

Guess road rage would make him a little cross?

Sure they are even better than I thought 🤩

I’m going to order more pairs for my family!

YouTube will most likely remain king. Simply don’t get the videos on Vimeo or Dailymotion.

Used to be all over Google products but got my soul back and sold it to Apple instead. All the big corps are the same in the end, I think.

I had Windows Phone, BlackBerry 10, CyanogenOS, Jolla Sailfish and was waiting on Firefox os and Ubuntu to be available in my country they never were. We are stuck with stripped back versions of Android and iOS.

Hey, let’s not forget that time he almost put fuel in a car!

Shire always looks so perfect. I swear it and Whiterun in Skyrim are my happy places.

Wow those SpezTech goggles sound great! Where can I get a pair?!

That’s disgusting. Is it OC? Awful. Like who is the artist, specifically?

People are the worst. Where can I find more of this to avoid?
