They'll never shut up about mass incarceration in China and how that means communism is authoritharian. You show them this and suddenly it's all context, individuals and nothing is systemic.

President lies to the public while being white.

Black girl lies to the police while having the wrong skin color.

if she's 13, she was 8 or 9 during the BLM summer after George Floyd's murder and she probably learned a lot from that shit unlike white liberals

I don't think this is a good one to use as agitprop. Read these facts from the perspective of someone who is sympathetic to the left, but who isn't all the way there yet:

Bible said the girl gave Beaver Falls police a fake name, Mae Wilson, and a fake birthday that indicated she was 18 years old. Although, she told officers several times she was a juvenile. Police told the girl they would release her to her parents, but she claimed she was homeless and from the Pittsburgh area.

"Beaver Falls police called Beaver County CYS when she disclosed she was from Pittsburgh. They contacted Allegheny County CYS to try to find any information on her, but since she gave a fake name, no one had any records of the individual,” Bible said.

Note that one big reason people give fake names upon arrest is that they know they are wanted for more serious crimes.

There are things to criticize here, but it's a bad example to push when there are a million other much clearer miscarriages of justice out there.

Sorry, but I'm not believing a word the pigs say. Cross-checking a possible unidentified minor that you've had for a few days in jail, with the database of missing people, seems like the most stupidly obvious thing you can do, and if they didn't do it, that's negligent as shit.

But you see, this is actually reasonable!!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

that's what the ACAB community is for, for rationalizing how cops aren't so bad!

All Cops Are deserving of the Benefit of the doubt kelly

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

American cops are terrible at the alleged parts of their jobs that involve actually helping people. The only parts they are "good" at are using violence to protect private property, acting like a gang, and being racist.

This is why key demands when defunding cops is to keep these alleged functions but make them civilian jobs by social services professionals. Having a way to identify and care for children in tough situations is a good thing to do. Cops are possibly the worst people to give that responsibility to.

I'm a little bit worried about your own instincts if you dont think "a 13 year old was in a cage for two weeks" isnt viscerally upsetting to anyone whos "sympathetic to the left".

wut

If "13 year old in jail for 2 weeks" doesn't radicalize someone I don't think much breath needs to be wasted on them. What the fuck are you talking about

imagine trying to excuse the pigs locking up a child for two weeks by trying to blame the child

Yeah that 13 year old really seemed like an adult I'm sure, nothing to be concerned about here!

My man there must be other, non-jail places where a child can be kept because they gave a fake name

[–] [email protected] 35 points 1 month ago (7 children)

i genuinely haven't seen a post this bad in a while here, which probably speaks more to my curating than a lack of said, but oh my God MarxMadness get off of this hill, stop dying, and go figure out the different ways you might be wrong, like be very goddamn introspective because the veneer of rationality you're hiding behind is thinner than the lead paint chips you've apparently been eating - nothing you've said is rational, but simultaneously nothing you've said has an ounce of heart or empathy either. Go figure out how to tell yourself you're wrong and stop posting until you figure it out

If you are so incompetent that you cant tell the difference between an 18 YO and a 13 YO, You should not be a cop
