Luigi Mangione shouts a message to the American people on his way to court:

“This is completely unjust and an insult to the intelligence of the American people and their lived experience.”

    American police once again showing to us how unfit for the job they are.

        Maybe the (mostly) professionalism from other countries has poisoned my mind and the police should indeed treat everyone as vermin.

          Whether they treat you professionally or not is irrelevant to the fact that their primary mission is upholding the state.

            They are there to enforce the law and serve citizens. They are public servants. But in the US they are mostly there to protect the state and uphold their own ideals, yes.

            However I was pointing out the lack of proper training, they immediately rush to get physical and grab the suspect by the neck as soon as they get a chance.

              Why do you think this is exclusive of the US?

                I don’t, but the US is the topic of discussion here

      The police in the US are there to protect and serve the 1%, AKA the Oligarchs. It’s be wonderful if they actually wanted to serve and provide safety for their communities. I’m sure there are a few in every city that actually want to do the right thing but as a whole, police are basically only around to protect property and harass anyone they think might be a threat to said property, especially when said property is owned by one of the Oligarchs.

        '“This is OCP property!”

        Almost like the original RoboCop was trying to warn us about something. I had a thought but got distracted and can’t remember what it was.

        Oh well, I’ll buy that for a dollar!
