Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Cop immediately starts lying to his supervisor. FTP

Seriously. What I have seen in literally every one of these body cam recordings is the second the supervisor or backup arrives on scene, they immediately lie through their teeth about what happened.

If that cop had done exactly what he told the next cop he would do, this would have been a non-issue. He could have given him a ticket for each thing and made him park and walk to the DMV, and Ice-T would have parked, got his stuff in order, and paid the ticket. He only got upset once the cop said he was going to two the car, which I understand. The likelihood of his car getting damaged (not to mention the additional hassle of getting it out of impound) would have been very frustrating.

Yeah what’s up with cops doing that? So much for protecting and SERVING the public.

Really more of a privileged little brotherhood than anything. I bet when they look at the general public all they see is them & us.

It was literally never about that.

Oh they absolutely tried to pass it off as that, that was their motto at one point! So that’s definitely the illusion they were trying to give.

The LAPD did. Biggest scam ever.

Old motto: protect and serve.

New motto: Stfu & obey.

Protect and serve who, though?
