I just want to get dicked down again =/

Oh thank god.

Why is nobody asking who was running a fake Old Friends Senior Dog Sanctuary official blog for over a year then?? They posted nothing but legitimate OFSDS posts, went silent for a year, and then hit us with the thirsty on main post. WHO DID THIS????

Holy shit what a fucking long con. That’s absolutely amazing.

OH MY GOD

‘Protect and Serve Act’ Would Make Police a Protected Class and Violence Against Them a Hate Crime

Cool, keep chipping away at the rights of marginalized people and make touching a cop punishable by ten years in prison. Everyone knows cops are honest and body cams catch everything.

From the outset, this type of legislation is wholly unnecessary. Police already have laws protecting them at both the federal and  state levels. These bills serve only  to further the myth that there is a war against police happening. This is simply not the case.

Calling for police accountability is not the same thing as waging a war against police, but it is viewed as such by those who think that questioning the police about anything is wrong. There are those who believe that the police should be able to act with impunity, and they will back that belief with legislation like the “Protect and Serve Act.”

The Senate version makes police a protected class, something that up until now was reserved for marginalized groups because crimes against them often went unacknowledged, uninvestigated and unpunished.

There are no statistics to show that police are in any more danger now than they have previously been. There are no statistics to show that police are being attacked or otherwise harmed at higher rates. There is nothing to back the belief that police need even further special protection under the law.

Exactly what constitutes violence against a police officer? Does the manner in which a police officer receives injury determine whether or not that particular instance will be viewed as a hate crime?

If a police officer goes to grab your arm and you instinctively pull away, your nails accidentally scratching him or her as you do so, are you now guilty of a hate crime against a police officer?

How and when will these laws be enforced, and against whom?
