Policing, as an Institution, is Rotten to the Core

Hi News Junky!


I wish I could say "Happy Friday" (I just did), but the news is grim today.


Eight people are dead after a mass shooting at a Fedex facility in Indianapolis, police released body cam footage of an officer shooting down a 13-year old boy, and...here's a snippet of a real doozy:

Cops made donations to Kyle Rittenhouse


Remember him? He's the punk who had his mom drive him across state lines and then killed two people with a rifle in Kenosha, Wisconsin back in August 25, 2020.


A data breach at a Christian crowdfunding website has revealed that serving police officers and public officials have donated money to fundraisers for accused vigilante murderers, far-right activists, and fellow officers accused of shooting black Americans.

One of those was...you guessed it...Kyle Rittenhouse.


Not only has Rittenhouse murdered people, he's also violated provisions of his bail arrangement by not telling the court he moved. He's a real POS.


And cops have given him money for his legal defense, sometimes even using their official email address given them by the police department they work for!


I don't hate all cops, but I think I hate the institution. And some cops are rotten to the core. Time to throw out the trash.

Make it a great day!
