You're just being foolish to trust them.. I'm Canadian and always heard how our cops weren't as bad as American cops, then we had protests in my city and the Canadian police proved they can be every bit as sadistic and psychotic as American cops. So can European cops. Don't let your guards down

I know several ex-cops because they saw everyone around them was a bastard, they are great people.

I live in Canada and also know several cops who are great people;however, even they would not raise a finger to expose fellow cops who are indeed bastards

That's the problem, it's not a few bad apples, it's a shit ton of them and the few remaining good apples are too afraid or just not care to do anything about the rest

I know several cops and they are all great people.

No, they aren't. Even if they are kind and friendly to you, they are still cops. They are still the state sanctioned users of violence whose primary job is to keep the status quo in which the rich own everything, and the workers don't. Where people live on the streets and children go hungry.

It probably helps that in most European countries police training is in the thousands of hours and in America it's under 6 months.

Here in Vic Australia too. They're mostly legends

The only people I know who hate cops here hate them because they either didn't solve their issue, or they are generally known to act like asses.

It probably also helps that nobody carries guns here so they can operate on a shoot last, ask questions first policy

Wouldn't that be ABAC, not ACAB?

Notice how none of his cop co-workers are demanding his removal and refusing to work with him

This argument goes around and around every time someone says ACAB. There is a culture of protecting your own in police forces - it seems to happen all around the world. This culture causes otherwise good cops to overlook actions of their peers that shouldn't be overlooked. If you let someone get away with something illegal, when your job is to uphold the law, then you are not doing your job and are really not a good cop after all - you're just as bad as your peers. ACAB is a much simpler way of saying all that.

Nope, if others were not bastards, this guy would not be on the force and would be in jail. They rally ‘round the family….

And other cops aren’t.

We have here, from this case alone:

• 1 absolutely insane individual who recklessly killed Jaahnavi Kandula, Kevin Dave.
• Daniel Auderer, who laughed at her death and said she was lower value anyway
• Mike Solan, who didn't shut Daniel down the moment he said that, also coincidentally SPOG president
• Whomever is authorized to discharge all 3 of these
• Whomever gave any of these 3 their positions
• The Union that defends these guys
• The cops willingly giving money to that Union

We have more of such cases than Police Unions.

All cops. No exceptions. They are raised by selfish parents to be a selfish person who sees others as beneath them. It's how cops are found, look for the greediest person in the room who would hurt others for gain and make them a lap dog. Cops aren't smart enough to know they are being used. All cops. No exceptions.

Think of the system like a force field (the physics kind, not the scifi kind). It pulls bastards into it. If you're not, you're in its presence, and you're susceptible to its effects. It's more like "No Humans Are Immune To The Corrupting Influence Of Militarized Institutions" but ACAB is a lot easier to say.
