     I prefer to watch Donut Operator. Sometimes the cops fuck up and kill someone because they went to the wrong address, but most of the time it's some fuckwit who pulls a gun on a cop.
     
     I really don't give a fuck if they're poor, if they're also stupid. i think the bigger problem is telling poor stupid people they're perpetual victims of cops (when they're not statistically) and therefore they always fight and get killed, when if they didn't, they'd survive and get caught and released (in a blue city) or spend a few months in jail and learn nothing (in a red city).
     
     Teaching people their rights and how to handle yourself and de-escalate with a cop would go a long way in making the world better for cops and people.

     Much more often than not, it’s totally justified, even from the perspective of normal ppl rather than police. But the police really do think they’re above everyone else which is also a problem.
