They have the upper hand, and no amount of imagined badassery will fix this systemic problem. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 child) You're just dead set on being murdered by a cop, aren't you? 🤦 permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] toasteecup@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago You do you and I do me. Let's not judge each other and instead remember we're on the same side fighting for the same thing just in different ways. After all, I'm not asking you to do as I do.

More likely you'll get arrested, probably have some BS charges thrown at you that the judge will happilly pass through, you'll never fly again, and maybe even see some jail time. There are many valid and important ways to fight back against police injustice. Yelling "get fucked pig" - while satisfying, and even justified - is definitely not one of them, even if talking about doing it does make you feel like a badass lol permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] toasteecup@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) You're making an assumption that I believe in the justice system. You're very likely (95%) correct that I'll get fucked over by the entire system, and I'm willing to accept that. I don't care if I lose.
