You've never liked them, even though you've never met one, or dealt with one, in person?
Seeing some videos of them beating people up gives you a confirmation bias. You see it happen more, so you think it happens more.

Saying you will never like them probably wasn't meant literally, just as fluff to make your statement more concrete, but saying you will never change your opinion on something is quite silly, mainly because you aren't capable of precognition, but also because opinions are, by definition, susceptible to change whether we want them to, or not.

How do you know I've never met one or dealt with one? You don't know the first thing about me. But to answer your obnoxious reply, I have met one and I've dealt with a PO many times. I've been beat on by a PO for no reason. So before you go stating I've never dealt with one when you don't know me nor ever talked to me, pipe down.

He assumed you hadn't dealt with a police officer because you explicitly stated "the only 'officer' I've ever really talked to was... ."

FYI.

I don't mind police officers as I have delt with them. Considering we've been robbed twice and they helped out a lot.

Why do I feel afraid when I see a police vehicle rather than protected? It shouldn't be this way. I hate American police.

If you aren't doing anything wrong there shouldn't be any reason to be afraid.

What could they have done? Think about it. There is no "facial recognition database", security camera footage is usually low resolution, and they probably didn't get any ID like a license plate from cameras. The best they could have done is put up posters or mention it on the local news, which would more than likely be a complete waste of resources.


That is not always true. I got identified pretty easy trying to use scotch tape on a dollar bill and it got stuck in the machine.

Pipe down? It's an internet forum, you think I'm clenching my fists in rage over your post? Of course not.
You just said you'd never really talked to one.
I'd assume dealing with the police involves talking to them, so can you really blame me for taking that statement literally?

and what makes a reply 'obnoxious?' If it disagrees with your opinion?
