      @The Underdog Music Actually most are not.....While there are certainly some power-hungry cops, you confuse fatigue and being fed up over dealing with depressed, ill, lying, thieves and killers day after day, with being a narcissist. Its a thankless and difficult job that someone has to do. Sometimes the patience of these folks wears thin. We do need education in how to deal with mentally ill people and in better ways to arrest and subdue suspects but the vast majority aren't the people you'd think they are from the BLM protests.

    • @emiller9426
      @emiller9426 3 года назад +1

      @The Underdog Music Didn't mean to imply narcissists aren't attracted. I meant to point out that most cops aren't narcissists. (lest people get the wrong idea) Narcissism incidence is 6.2% in the general pop. So even if incid. is 2-3 x that, among cops, it still leaves much less then the 51% necessary for MOST cops to have that trait.

      All I did was look up Houston and see that it was blue in 2016. CNN would of course bring on a blue Police Chief for comments. Gee, I wonder what he will have to say? Deflect maybe? From the fact that he is FAILING at HIS job to keep his city safe while it burns? Blue cities have the mentality of "stand back and allow the animals to destroy"... THAT is why people are being hurt and businesses are being burned. Put the mob down! Dont use the president's words as an excuse for your inaction. Your stupid speeches about hugging eachother are just that, WORDS. No action. Just like Obama and Biden are SAYING THE RIGHT THING right now, and it SOUNDS great, but they were in charge for 8 years (Baltimore, Ferguson, etc) and your stupid WORDS were just LIES to the black community. You changed nothing with your 8 years!!! 8 years!!! As a matter a fact, race relations only worsened. Over 60% of the population viewed race relations as good when Obama took office, that dropped into the 25% range a few months before he left. That's not my poll, that's not fox's poll, thats from NYT/CBS right here kids: www.google.com/amp/s/www.nytimes.com/2016/07/14/us/most-americans-hold-grim-view-of-race-relations-poll-finds.amp.html

Win the hearts & mind(trust) of their communities because that's the only way to end this abuse of power coming from not all but many police officers.

      Yes continue to march....at home!!! From the beginning of this misfit administration, mass genocide appears to be the goal....brown children & their parents separated in border concentration camps, brown people amassed in close quarters in our cities when this Corona plague is unhinged. The best thing you can do to sabotage THEM is to...PLEASE STOP...go home for now. Be patient & when the time is right...remove them from control.
