Do you stand with or against the police?

Tbh I have a tough time with this. Police officers have never been anything but kind and patient with me. Although I do know some of them are secretly racist and biased against other people. But who do you call when you’re literally being shot at? The police are there to literally, physically save you. Of course, some of them will purposely not do their job for certain groups of people due to their racism. Idk what to think about them.

They're literally there to save you because they're getting paid for it, it's their job. And yet I come from a country where the police beats us to death. I don't care about the few good ones, I will always stand against them.

@SW-User Umm yes, exactly, it is their job. So if we get rid of the police who is going to save people in certain situations? Not 100% for them but I’m curious about your answer

@AnonymousJSS Oh, I'd never say we should get rid of them. We need to change them though. Better training, perhaps? Make it harder for someone to become a police officer? Because nowadays anyone can just become one

@SW-User I agree with that.
