Do Cops Get A Bad Rep From The Media?

[The Republic of Fore]

Yes they do, in all of 2017 about 70 people were killed by the police who were unarmed. Out probably millions of interactions between civilians and police, that's a pretty miniscule number.

[Arkinesia]

No, their unions do a plenty fine job of that already by advocating for making it harder to bring any kind of attention or oversight to law enforcement.

[Soviet Tankistan]

Only because the current running of the department is flawed. The media is regulating law enforcement by popular ideas because they haven’t done enough to regulate themselves.

[San Lumen]

They always stand by the officer no matter what. I never forget when two officers in NYC were shot in their patrol car in Brooklyn the PBA President had the audacity and unmitigated gaul to blame the Mayor

Is that not the purpose of any organization? Who in their right mind would join an organization that does not explicitly look after its own members first and only?

[British Tackeettlaus]

Yes, it is horrible when people report on the things they do.

Because there was nothing he could have done that would have prevented it.

[Communist Zombie Horde]

Yes- it is unfair and it shows that Democrats support crime.

[San Lumen]

Are you serious right now? Cops are infallible to you and should not be held accountable for their actions?

They are above the law then and should be allowed to do whatever they want on the job simply because they are police officers?

[Communist Zombie Horde]

Not anything but they are doing alright now. Police officers are a part of the law not bogeymen. You should only be afraid if you break the law.

…Yeah, that’s not how it works.

[Badb Catha]

Unfortunately, yes. It is largely out of a mixture of general ignorance and consumerist media trying to appeal to anti-establishment youth.

Because clearly the media isn't doing this for any reason aside from holding cops accountable for their actions. You my friend, place too much trust in the media.
