The time that Minneapolis cop accidentally shot a black guy by accidentally getting her gun instead of her tazer.

Because third wave feminism opened the door to academics embracing the long-discredited theory of Tabula Rasa and preaching that everyone is equal and it's society that creates sexual dimorphism.

and it's society that creates sexual dimorphism.

I would think this is straw-manning feminism but this belief is actually super common. I don't understand how they don't get laughed out of society.

Why do we let people violently resist arrest?

they were doing office jobs, but a sudden wave of retirements of the most experienced agents forced the police to send unqualified personnel on the street.

I wonder why such a sudden wave of retirement occurred...

Women working generally is a corporatist scam to dilute the value of labor by expanding the labor pool.

Edit: I also think that a lot of the contemporary anti-natalist sentiment is also a corporatist scheme to keep their female workforce working and not home pregnant or raising children.

Good question, but if the black guy wasn't resisting arrest the way a majority of black suspects do this wouldn't have happened either.

Just transition, already, and take your schizo psychotic takes to somewhere they fit better, like r/tranny.

Yes it sounds like common sense to hold them accountable, but it's been ruled in multiple lawsuits that police in the US have no duty to protect and are not responsible for your safety.

what would have happened if they'd let him go in and, in engaging the shooter, had caught a child in the crossfire.

There isn't a jury in the world that that would haved rule against them.

This is true. However, assuming this guy sues, I'd be curious to see how the court handles "no duty to aid" vs. active interference. I would assume some liability attaches when the police actively prevent you from protecting life and/or property.

It’s a complicated legal situation and I haven’t researched it so I can’t speak with any confidence. Having said that, in general, you can become liable, both civilly and criminally, if you actively interfere with a rescue or prevent someone from rendering aid. The complicating factor here is sovereign immunity that limits the liability of government agents from tort liability, so IDK if the police department could be sued. It’s possible that the chief or whoever grabbed this cop could be federally sued under § 1983, but § 1983 suits exist in a limited world of possible claims and I don’t know if this would qualify.

Specifically, under the current law, there’s no obligation to protect anyone in particular. However, laws can be passed to create that obligation. Maybe that’s something that we as a society should consider, at least in specific situations like when children are under attack from active shooters.

We corporatized fields that had no business being treated like corporations. I’m sure that whoever’s the equivalent of a middle manager is for the cops will get a horrendous performance review. Then life will just go on.

I was watching Donut Operator's breakdown of this - people were asking him what the fuck was wrong with the police chief, and Donut, sounding basically "what the fuck is wrong with these guys" and all said "this police chief spent too many years behind a desk and had zero experience out in the field for way too long"

Basically, we had a pencil pusher heading Uvalde police.

This isn’t western society, it’s feminism. Women will never hold people accountable for their actions unless they are considered a provider.

Derek Chauvin

Disagree. Chauvin went above and beyond the call of duty without even intending to. He sacrificed his career and personal safety to remove a career criminal from the streets. When the "justice" system would have put that criminal right back out there to harm more people.

that wasn't the question and that's not what I'm implying. he was tried for doing his job and they framed it as if he killed the guy through negligence (yet somehow went ahead and convicted him of murder, outrageously enough).

the question was - do people [who work in law enforcement] get serious prison time for [supposedly] being incompetent? and the answer as of 2022 is a resounding yes - if it is politically expedient.

and just for the record: of course I support his actions.
