I watch bodycam videos on YouTube. A ton of them come from red states; they’re rural. I see the resistance to cops in red states as sort of “muh rights” but it occurs to me that Leftists (like me) may also stand up to bullshit (just not the same bullshit).
I know that I think cops are corrupt, but I also won’t fight someone with a gun. What are your thoughts on how this divide might play out?
What does your question mean? What is “people are worse”?
Cops are bad everywhere. They will ally themselves with anyone who is rich and powerful. Cops don’t care what party the judge or mayor is in, because power is the point.
Non-white people who physically resist the pigs or open carry, for example, know that there’s an extra high chance the racist pigs will smoke them. At the same time, they get targeted more just because of their appearance. So the data on who acts in what ways around cops is skewed in weird ways.
