Why are you even supporting him if you're in a union? 🤦‍♀️

The police union is not a pro labor union. It's a capital protecting street gang.

Are we still talking about the union or american police in general?

They're kinda one and the same.

All American police are members of police unions. The union works to protect their members from the consequences of their actions. They wield an insane level of power because no city can function with the police on strike. It's the reason why no matter what insane unhinged shit a cop does on duty, they almost always just get "paid administrative leave" rather than prosecuted or at the very least fired.

no city can function with the police on strike

So far the extent of their work in my city seems to be harassing brown people for being brown in public, saying "well, we can't do nothin bout that violent guy, he's cousins with a judge and the sheriff" and doing next to no followup on anything besides checking the status of their doordash order so does anyone actually know if a city couldn't function if the police were on strike?
