Black Live Matter movement has taken off in the US and I think that is an overall good thing. However, there is a growing belief that all cops are evil, that we should abolish police, or defund police, or just generally villify them. While I do believe that we have a major police violence problem in the US, it is short sight and counterproductive to make all cops into villains. There are good cops, and bad cops. We just need to sort them properly.

@James Pruitt way to back that up with facts and sources🙄
@James Pruitt broooo 🤦🏾♂️ please change your last name
I have gained alot of respect for drifter after watching this video
Man I gotta say your honesty is humbling. Your admission of coming from a family of crime, your uncensored discussion, and overall unfiltered opinion is refreshing. I already respected you as gamer but now you have my respect as a speaker and supporter.
You have a good head on your shoulders man. And coming from a black person living in today's world, your words are much appreciated.
driftor you’re making too much sense. nobody will support this!
I will :)
There in nothing really bad with his opinion or with such a video. Y u guys unhappy?
I will.
There's more that goes into the idea of defunding the police from what I've read. A large number of low income or ethnic neighborhoods have had funds diverted from education and into policing. This means that the kids in these neighborhoods will not only be poor, which has the most correlation to crime rates, but they will also not learn enough about their own disadvantaged situation to choose the right path. Then police come into these neighborhoods at a high rate and start to lock up people for small drug charges etc. This allows for cheap prison labor. So, to sum it up, I wish that people would advocate for rerouting of police funds to lower income neighborhoods.
@nanda erdhani he is a person and is allowed to have an opinion. he obviously has an open mind, a willingness to learn, and knows how to educate himself. plus his experiences growing up in a racist criminal family are valuable. driftor also has a large platform, so him using it to make people think and talk is what he SHOULD be doing.
another thing; I agree that we should defund the police. what I disagree with you on is that most cops are evil; I don't think they are. what's actually at play is that these cops are participating in a racist and flawed institution, and they are too ignorant/uneducated to realize it. outside of this, I wouldn't be surprised if many of them are average or good people.
"This is a 3rd world country with money" Well said
as a european, a few years ago i was amazed by the us and its culture. Now im thankful i was born in greece lol. The american dream is such a fake bs that is really easy to fall for....
Διονυσης Γρασσος LoL our of all the European countries you compare Greece to the US? My toxic patriotism won’t stand for it
People in Greece might not have your wealth but southern Europeans have a much better appreciation for life and I think they life a more fullfilling life then many people realize.
Διονυσης Γρασσος whats wrong with the American dream? A house, car, able to support your family. Many have achieve this. Most of the country is capable of it.
Greece had like a 2000 year head start on us and Yous still suck. Hold this L forever
Remember when MLK said to stop looking at skin color and let's look at the content of character? I wish we could start doing that........I could care less what you look like I want to see the good in your heart and what you bring to the table!
It's 2020 that's probably racist or sexist. Freedom of speech is dead. Where probably going to get a 3rd wave of covid-19 due to all the protesting and riots. This is nothing like the early civil rights movement. Why go after a world war 2 memorials. All lives matter is racist apparently.
@@jgatsby5243 We won't get anything related to covid, after the election it won't be mentioned again
Jimmy Claypool do you know the levels of racism black men where subjected too during world war 2 ?
Black soldiers came home to segregation and bigotry while white soldiers came home to parades and the GI bill gave them houses.
Kind of hard to not see color when your always losing the game.
MLK was also killed by the FBI
Most police aren't bad people and I feel bad for those individuals.
If I'm to be honest, I often pondered joining the police force growing up. Ever since middle school, I figured it'd be one of the best ways to help the world, but seeing how the world is right now, I don't think even I could do my job.
If I was a cop right now, I'd be afraid to wear my uniform. So I give my respect to the genuine good cops out there.
IKR I’m not trying to be rude but it’s kinda stupid to blame one cops actions on all cops. And people try to make cops look so much worse by posting videos of only like the worst of the worst
If your body camera isn’t on, they should be charged with “destroying evidence”
The cameras only have a 6 hour battery and these cops are out for like 12 hour shifts
@@neuroticohio52 recharge🤷♂️
NeuroticOhio get larger batteries
@@myraligma6137 what if the cop is on a call and he cant charge it?
EXACTLY. it should be MANDATORY to have ur body cam on when you are gonna have a run in with somebody. period. and if a officer tells somebody to turn their cameras off he should be immediately investigated and fired.
With the bistander effect, it makes me remember something. I'm a volunteer fire fighter. I had to become cpr certified. During cpr training, we are told that just asking someone to call 911 won't work. We need to specifically tell a person to do so, by going "you in the red shirt, call 911" or something along those lines.
Ahahah this video is 30 minutes long and it’s been out for 15 minuets, how can 50 people have already disliked it without even watching the entire thing? 😂
People are such degenerates to the point where they'll subscribe to someone just to dislike their video within the first 20 minutes and won't watch 2 minutes of it. Ironically they're giving the channel they hate so much interactions, which will net more revenue to the RUclipsr.
Angry nerds 😅

Thank you for having a very reasonable opinion on this issue. I still lean a little more right on most issues than you but I've always respected your logical approach to evaluating policy
Same! I lean more right on almost everything compared to him, but im glad at how reasonable he is on touchy subjects and isnt just all cops bad.
Ive seen a surprisingly scary amount of posts on fb about how every cop is bad and even if you support them at all your canceled/we are no longer friends
I respect him even if I disagree with his opinions sometimes, especially considering I’m a centrist or ig libertarian leaning.
Mosses’ punishment was for something a lot pettier. He was instructed to hit a rock once to get water. Then one day the water didn’t flow right away and he hit the rock a second time. God considered this to be lack of faith and an act of disobedience. 😳
I forgot all about this!
This says more about the God than Moses
I think his instructions was to speak to the rock to get the water flowing but in his anger he struck it.
He was supposed to speak instead of strike, yup.
Soap Mactavish It says that He holds His prophets at a higher standard
The problem with the whole "bad apple" argument is that the people who are supposed to pick the bad apples out just ignore it.
The cop the murdered Floyd should have been fired a long time ago. IMO
Based on what?
@@2pumpedupforu amy Klobuchar Bidens most likely VP had been advised to start an investigation into the officer because of his treatment of suspects. This was just the first time he killed one of them
@@2pumpedupforu Not sure if I can post a link in chat, but basically the cop that murdered Floyd had 18 complaints and only received 2 disciplinarys. He was let off so many times despite how he treated suspects.
The full adage is;
A few bad apples spoil the whole bunch
@Move_I_Got_This you're comparing a geographic location which none of the people living there have control over with an institution with complete control over who joins and get kicked out, that's apples and hammers my dude
Who here learns more from Drift0r than all your high school classes combined? I never thought in my life I would learn so much from a guy who plays video games all the time. Mad respect to someone who learned to shed his racism and be analytical.

He's right. You can be a police officer serving and protecting your community and you want to help people out. Next thing you know, only one single cop in your country does something bad and you end up being the most hated person in your community!
Wow, yeah the story of Moses is actually an amazing example.
Biggest problem I see is, the code of police they have with each other, if a whistleblower is found out, they are ousted in the force, bullied and effectively forced out the job. Rotten from the top down.
We have dash cams/ body cams on police here in the uk but again footage gets “lost” or manipulated.
"And Moses was salty about it" - Drift0r 2020
Ahh nothing better than a Drift0r political video. Only non biased political info.
More content like this drift,love em, keep em coming....now excuse me,imma watch this beauty
I’ve skipped over this vid a few times when it showed up in my recommendations cuz every video is angry and follows their own personal agenda of “cops are bad” or “the protests are bad because riots” and everything in between, but seeing the video myself I’m really glad to see u use your platform to instead of just posting a black screen, you’re giving your input and own experiences to explain both sides. Right on man keep it up
I think the reason these problems are turning into riots is that people are beginning to realize that nobody in power is making any changes and these problems (police brutality, absence of economic equality, and a lack of true democratic practices). I mean that I don't think it's only about the problem of police brutality, although that is a leading concern, but more about the broken system of government that allows it to continue
I think it's also important to keep in mind that the point of view that drift0r speaks from is not African American.
Lake Starr It’s not, but it would solve most of it while also solving a lot of other things unrelated to it, so it’s a good step even if it isn’t technically about the same thing
@@snowfloofcathug Hi, I worry I worded myself badly, I mean more that the response to the problem is acting as a release for the frustration with our leadership that has built up over the years
Wow, this is the best video I've seen on this topic yet. Definitely opened my eyes to all points of the argument. Everyone needs to see this video: police, rioters, protestors, politicians, etc.
Defunding Police is also about funding the other departments that have been cut over the years were the problem they took care of now falls on police, particularly in drugs, mental health, and homelessness. It would make police work easier.
Servine why is there the most crime in places where police are most present? any rational person would know that if you attack at the core issue, you fix everything that is effected by it.
@Servine if you really want police brutality to end, you need to take them out of the equation. you don't hear about police brutality in forest fires, cause they are not the ones responding - firemen are. when you have groundhog blocking traffic - you don't need police, you need animal control. when you have trouble with homeless people - you need social services. when there is a neighbour dispute over their lawn - you also don't need police.
however... usa has gigantic problem - it loves guns. oh how it loves guns. so now - even groundhog can potentially have a gun, thus only police can respond. what usa has not yet realized, that even trees can be hoarding ak47s, so police should respond to forest fires too.
remove guns from people and then most of troubles would never require armed police office responding.
you don’t realize police department have all of those units in them that your cutting
@ValveGMD True. Correlation is not casual relationship. Basically the fallacy of post hoc ergo propter hoc, which means "Since event Y followed event X, event Y must have been caused by event X", which is so wrong.
@@keeplearning4L What you are saying here is basically the post hoc ergo propter hoc fallacy, meaning "Since event Y followed event X, event Y must have been caused by event X." And that's just so wrong and misleading.
Defunding the cops completely is a horrible idea, I'm sure we can all agree that there are bad people and good people.
However I do not realise why so much of America's economy goes to the police while they could take billions of and invest it into other options that result in the decline of crimes to be committed in the first place.
This may also be radical but some murders really shouldn't be alive unless they even a small hope of reforming, a death of a murderer isn't bad if he isn't going to reform in the first place.
Protests should not be ignored and I think all protests should be dealt with when they are peaceful and change be made if that's what the people want. We are all people at the end of the day.
I'd love to hear your opinions and thoughts of this aswell
What I like about you is that you actually have concrete ideas/solutions you want to see. I thought about it the other day, but most of the protests are just like "we need justice/reform" but they never say how. They never say exactly what it is they want. And without something concrete it is less likely to happen. Think what would happen if you striked saying "we need better conditions". Okay, but _what_ do you need? Better safety? Better wages? If you don't tell me exactly how to fix it then I can't
What if instead of defunding, you forced all members new and future to re-apply to their positions with much higher standards in staggered groups. If they pass, they keep their rank and position. This goes for everyone: chief to greenhorn.
That's sounds like a good idea but are there any flaws to that though
I just want to say that I don't agree with all your viewpoints and proposed solutions, but I sit and watch through these every single time because I think it's valuable for everyone to hear when you do videos on important topics.
This argument is too logical for anyone to actually put it into place
Agree with a most of this. I may not agree with every point but I cannot describe how much I appreciate the level headed conversation. This is what is needed. Not everyone’s click bate yelling and screaming over partial video clips blown out of context. Also Joe Rogans conversation with Jocko yesterday. These are the conversations that need to be happening! Thank you 🙏
True, a fomer police officer once told me that his intructor taugh him to never dispute with a criminal or with another police officer. Both scenarios is really dangerous.
I absolutely enjoyed your commentary, honestly and humility regarding this subject. I have been a Police Officer for several years. I grew up in a crime ridden area and unfortunately various members of my family treaded on the wrong side of the law. I became a police officer to give back to my community in a positive manner. I must also mention that I am a black man which sometimes make my profession difficult. Thank you very much for the commentary it was very refreshing.
Thanks for making this video. I pretty much completely agree with you and have had these thoughts in my heads since this all started. I haven't really tried to put it into any concise statement or words however, your video did just that for me. I'm glad to see someone who takes their opinions seriously share similarities with me when it comes to this situation. It's tough because I don't see a lot of statements like these nor am I able to share it like you as the age demographic I'm in is mostly filled with ignorance and people blatantly following whatever the next person tells them.
I respect you so much because you represent and explain the "other side" so well. You understand both sides of the issue equally well. This is what we need to effect real change. Changing minds is a tricky thing, subtlety and intelligence is one of the best ways to get it done. Well done Drift. \m/
Drift0r, I'm a nobody, really, but your critical thinking is ON POINT! Love your videos brother! Keep 'em coming! Stay safe man! Later...
Don’t talk down to yourself like that, surely you’re more than nobody.
I tiny part of me was worried this video would be dumb and more of what everyone else is saying, but you proved my doubt wrong again Driftor. You’ve always been able to see situations in a nonbiased and intelligent way, which is something we need more of right now. I love the critical takes on the situation we’re in and how you don’t just spout off the first thing you read without thinking about it.
There are good cops out there. I live in Honolulu, well Kailua but that’s like a 20 min drive, hpd are great people here, every officer I’ve encountered take honor to there work and want to protect anyone that comes here or lives here mahalo hpd for your good work
I think Hawaii has a completely different local culture based off respect
You’re doing good work man. Fighting the good fight. Speaking with a level head. And helping to educate instead of incriminate. There are a lot of things we as a society have to discuss, not fight about. And you’re helping to make that happen. I love what you do. Stay awesome
Look, Driftor. I love that you are willing to speak on “controversial” issues to the COD community in a way that is sensitive and nuanced. I’m a dirty commie tho so I’m just gonna keep my ideas to myself. I appreciate the openness.
Tell us, I or we wont judge your opinion and you could just delete your message if It gets bad if you want to
Well said man! You don't fight generalisations with more generalisations. That only leads to a vicious cycle where nothing will ever change. We need to change the system and recognise that there are good and bad people in every group of people
"This is a 3rd world country with money" that was great. My high school history teacher made the comparison that the U.S was "that one crazy kid in school that brings a gun everywhere that others say hi to avoid problems"

Your worldviews on this situation align very strongly with my (our) own, despite having such vastly different upbringings. A lot of what was said in this video helped organize what's been going through my head throughout all of this.
Im the cart guy and you know whats funny? Once someone leaves theirs on the parking spaces people get real confortable and at the end of the day there are like 25 of them in a pack lol
The concept of a "cart guy" and leaving your cart just anywhere is soooo foreign for me and probably most european countries...
I have a lot of problems with this video. Now before you write me off I agree with some of your solutions. The first problem that I have is with your argument against ACAB because I believe it is missing the most important reason why this is true. The argument goes as follows: The job of law enforcement is to enforce the law. There are unjust laws. Therefore law enforcement uses force to back injustice. That is the core argument for ACAB. My second problem is is your misuse of the term "anarchy". Now it has been used casually to mean chaos and disorder however, it actually means the dismantling of unjustified hirachrys. That is to say that in many situations in our society the structure of employees management and bosses is not justifiable for the stakes at hand the classic example being fast food service. And my last problem is with how you think defunding the police would work. It isn't just a yoinking of funding from police and that money just disappears. What proponents are proposing are to reallocate funding into new departments that have specialization in the type of problems that police are blanket called in for. For example mental health emergencies wouldn't be responded with cops with guns but instead a social worker who is trained to deal with mental health issues. I love your cannel especially your philosophical stuff but I can't help but feel on this video you just didn't do your homework. Keep the great content rolling and stay safe.
I can’t put enough emphasis on how great of a person you are. Thank you for acknowledging this subject with your platform. Also, thank you for not being a radical and not trying to suck up. You truly are a great person. Ty a lot. I do like to hear the view of the other side and why people feel that way. Thank you for not making some propaganda video.
boutta hit play and listen to this at the gym in a minute, idk your stance at all but based on how you are always rational and logical and just seem to want what is best for people, ima boutta listen all the way through. leggo
You have no idea how much I appreciate these videos. Thank you.
I haven’t watched a Driftor video in a while but I decided to click this one. Wow, I’m really impressed and you nailed it. Thank you for using your platform to talk about very difficult topics like these.
I have many Correctional Officers (CO's) in my family and we've had the morality debate numerous times for many reasons. But the main one is while police operate mostly out in the open in view of the public and the community they work in, CO's operate behind closed doors where no one in the public or community sees them. So the only people who see how they operate (good or bad) are their own peers and inmates. The same thing's you are talking about that plague the police also plague the prison system. Except IMO from what I know from accounts of family members abuse of power can be worse because everything is in house so many things can be hidden much easier and they know that people are less likely to believe a repeat criminal if actions are taken. Add to that, that most of society automatically assumes that anyone incarcerated is a POS and you've got a green light for abuse and brutality with no fear of repercussions. And all the same issues you bring up are the same. The stress, pay, and the risk of losing your job if you speak up. But I'm seriously glad you brought this up because I believe it's not as clear cut on either side as people think it may be. Just like many things in life the truth and reality is somewhere in the middle and if we are going to fix this as a nation we are all going to have to see the problem from everyone's perspective not just our own and then work together to make the system better for all parties involved. Though this will never eliminate inherently bad people all together it will be a good start to people helping and trusting each other again.
driftor ill be honest i love you dude, cod no so much i mainly still sub to you because of your deeper vids like these and your a really insightful person. sometimes I like to go back and watch your past philosophy/comentary vids like game theory and 4d space but I was wondering would you be able to put these kind of vids in a playlist like you do with your cod videos so their easier to find would mean a lot thank you and keep up the great work
driftor is brave willing to put his youtube fanbase on the line to speak the truth. he could lose alot of his fans over speaking out like this.
If a PD is defunded, the good employees leave for better condition, leaving only the worst behind. This is what happens with big companies suffering from cut backs. It just spirals downwards as the comany loses its talent pool.
Police inaction isn't acceptable.
They take an oath to protect the Constitution. Looking away from civil rights being violated doesn't serve or protect anyone.
drift0r thank you so much for grinding out these videos, I look forward every time I open up youtube
This is an amazing video, I implore everyone to watch this to the end! He’s speaking nothing but facts, and this is coming from a black man
Just know there are people who care for you. We're all in this together
Drifter please make a podcast on social issues and or political. You really are level headed and respect seeing you explain both sides of the topic.
The other problem is the power of police labor unions.
I do appreciate that you're using your channel to send a message. Even though there are those who will whine and just want to ignore the issue.
When it comes to the face masks, I used to wear them all the time as they are required at work right now, but they haven't turned the temperature down at all with the weather getting warmer and because of that the masks hold in all the heat, start to break down from my sweat, and causes me to get heat rashes everywhere as I'm not venting enough of the heat off. It's been getting really bad that the rashes are starting to just appear anywhere. At first it was just my arms, but now I have some that won't go away on my hands, my thighs, my face, neck, etc. Not to mention that at work we are being tracked how much we are actually working so stopping to get a drink is discouraged. As such it's basically my risk of the spreading the virus or collapsing of heat stroke or dehydration.
Been downing a whole bottle of water at every break just to get by and get grab my bottle like 3 times every quarter. It's pretty dreadful. And at first I thought it was just my section of the building that was hot as we work next to the truck doors (it's a warehouse) but being sent to other departments and going upstairs to fix jams have shown, nope they just have the air conditioning turned way down or even possibly just off. Last night it was actually cooler outside then it was inside at the end of shift. Not much I can do about it. The only people in control of the temperature are those in the cubicles in the offices and they obviously don't care as much as say me picking up and carrying boxes that may weigh up to 40 pounds.
Yeah you should not have to wear a mask in general not to mention a hot environment, that’s just bad.
Italian here. There is one thing you guys need the most, and you're basically saying at the end. How on earth does it make sense that a police officer must fear to be shot everytime he stops someone. YOU. NEED. LESS. GUNS. PERIOD.
@drift0r
8:53 where did you research "defund the police?"
The points that followed are completely wrong. Defund the police is about narrowing the police's function by providing money to other social services. For example, better funding for housing & mental health so that it isn't the police's job to deal with the homeless or addiction.
I appreciate your opinions alot Driftor! Been subscribed for who knows how many years and you have been very balanced in your videos. Wish more people were like that.

I don’t see why people dislike these videos. Your content is true and valid. You even admit her here’s MY PRO but here’s the con to go with it. You admit anything from a-z and I respect that. I would like to see more videos where you just sit and talk. The gameplay in the back helps me understand how to play warzone better while listening to things that make a difference!
The problem is that good cops literally can't stay good cops for long. They either quit themselves or are forced to leave. Going against another cop is akin to betrayal in their eyes.
To some black people being a black cop is a betrayal to blacks.. sum even when a step further and said blacks cops deserve to die because they betrayed black people... I don't understand that logic. Same here with the cop logic of betraying other cops..
I am a black male I got arrested for a dui when I blew 0.00 case was dismissed because I was innocent, I also had police pulled me over because I was in a whites neighborhood the ransacked my car searching for drugs & never found anything I am afraid of the police because of my skin color
Thank CNN and the Main stream media for portraying you as criminals when the majority are not.
Then your a child
It's really disappointing that you have to explain this, since it's just basic logic.
Well spoken. It seems that Psych degree is coming into it's own at this point as you really do offer significant insight into those aspects. Valuable contribution to the real debate and great use of the platform. Good work!
I don’t like when black people record and be like “what did I even do” like all you have to do is do as he says
watching this video was basically a review of an ethics class I took this semester lol. Driftor I respect the way you explain these issues we face in today's society. thank you
I do agree with what you're saying however you as a white man can't claim that a certain police department isn't racist since you've had a good experience with them. I am also white and also haven't watched the whole video yet.
Thanks for the video. I came for Modern Warfare content but got that and so much more. Analysis like this is very helpful for people like me who are from outside US but still very interested in what's happening there.
Never been this early. As much as I dislike that the world is in the state it's in I very much enjoy the social and philosophical videos coming out from it.
I have a similar over all experience with police. I live in NC Raleigh and in general with Raleigh pd and police from other counties or jurisdictions, I have no negative experiences with police so far and I'm a 23 year old black man. However I have several experiences with police and even have been arrested once. I firmly believe that most cops or at least half are "good" ones. However because of consequences of holding their peers accountable, they just don't. I feel like at this point real change wont happen for decades possibly multiple generations cause one thing America is more than anything is stubbornn
Alright I'm gonna be honest but the only reason I put BLM donations in is so cops are held accountable and not because I think it's abou race, I know I'm a horrible person
Thatonefpsgamer 13 you monster
@@thatonefpsgamer1339 Donating with a clear objective and intent is smart. Police accountability isnt a race issue even if it predominately affects a certain ethnicity more cause we all still are affected by that. It can be argued that pre protest police brutality is a black issue since before the protest I have only heard of blacks being affected by police brutality. I may be wrong. Now everyone can get it though.
@@thatonefpsgamer1339 youre right its not just about black lives, it is about accountability. Thats where it starts. Black people aren't the only minorities experiencing inequality, and leading the fight by holding ALL officers accountable for ALL actions is a great start.

That is a noob play style. He is not jumping and sliding, like a normal player.
Great objective analysis of a few of the supermassive challenges we are facing as a nation in this mysterious, modern age. At the end of your video, you emphasized the importance of the responsibility that we ALL (cop/civilian/politician alike) bear in simply being "good people", which I found to be a fantastic way of simplifying many of the issues. Additionally, overcoming these obstacles will be neither easy nor swift, so it is of the highest importance that we maintain our foci, efforts. andattention for months and years to come.

I like how you put this. I have a family member who is the chief of police in a nearby town to my own and it feels like a personal attack on me and my family when people say all cops are bad. Said family member has never had to fire a shot out of weapon other than a taser on people that were legitimately not cooperating. He’s proud that he’s never had to use very much brute force or violence to do his job and his entire department that he’s the head of is proud of the fact none of them use brute force unless absolutely necessary and no one has fired a shot unless the offender has had a weapon of their own. To say all cops are bad cops is just a completely incorrect statement. There are good cops and there are bad cops
A lot of good cops sit back and let the bad cops do whatever that doesn’t make them good cops no more
The best way I heard it was: if you have 99 good cops and one bad cop, but the good cops refuse to stop the bad cop, you don't have 99 good cops. You have 100 bad cops.
Noah Miller ik that makes me mad like how can they just let them do whatever they want in front of them and don’t say anything
Drift0r lowkey becoming one of my favs with these types of videos, not the regular gaming type
I love the honesty you’ve shown throughout our issues we’ve been going through as a nation. Respect
Love hearing you slow things down and talk for awhile. Great video Drift
I just watched this after the two “me too” videos. Been kind of a heavy afternoon. Gonna go watch some EXE vids to decompress. Great commentary, brother. We don’t always see eye-to-eye politically, but you e got a great head on your shoulders. Don’t let anyone tell you any different.
Very thought-provoking commentary Drift0r. I can't say I agree with everything, but I can say that everything you present is very reasonable. Keep it up.
*_reject degeneracy_*
i like what you are doing here.
edit: especially with your background. much respect, man! keep it up!
Aaaaaaaaand this is why Drift0r has been my favorite youtuber for years now. Keep it up, Drift!
My former coworker said the call cops dread the most responding to is a domestic dispute call. He said it could become volatile quick.
As an aussie i see you country hurting and you have made more sense in this commentary then any CNN CNBC FOX or any main stream media.. they cause more harm then good.
I hope the US sorts out there policing problems
This guy last few videos really earned my respect. We need more people like you
Reading Twitter right now makes me want to go full Hatchet and never interact with another human being again. The utter lunacy of these blanket, sweeping, hyperbolic claims makes me honestly, legitimately worried for the future of our country, given what I'm seeing from the up and coming generation.
Love your videos man! You have a more reasoned viewpoint than just about everyone on mainstream media.
Honestly I love these videos, keep doing them please 👍🏼
