I believe police only where their claims are readily verifiable.
I wait for proof because police are untrustworthy. It’s irresponsible to just take police at their word and use their justifications on the off chance that they haven’t covered their bodycam or “lost” the footage.
You have insinuated that my trust of police is unconditional; that is a lie. You have insinuated that my trust in police is racially motivated. That, too, is a lie.
I think you’re willing to believe the police when proof is not available, and that you’re willing to take at face value what a racist institution puts out there.
I think that you had reached your conclusion by the end of the headline, and didn’t need to actually read the article.
I’ve been following this story since before the pigs announced they were going to release footage.
I think that in the absence of proof, you broadly assume the police are guilty until proven otherwise.
Yes. In every last case. Pigs have been behaving so poorly for so long that there is no reason to do anything but mistrust them until the instant they provide incontrovertible proof. Their word is less than worthless. Anything they say without actual evidence to back it up is a fucking lie as far as I’m concerned, and anyone who defends them without available proof does so out of naivete or bad faith because they love it when pigs murder unarmed black people for them.
You believed them immediately without evidence.

The evidence you had was a cop said it.

I don’t believe cops until I have proof. You believe them immediately.
