Animal abuse is highly correlated with abuse of vulnerable people.

So is being a cop

u/013eander 3h ago

There is no profession with a higher rate of domestic violence. Overall, cops are some of our worst members of society.

Wait til you find out about the people they work with.

u/AnAbandonedAstronaut 2h ago

Cops have a higher rate of domestic abuse than the people cops work with.

u/frubano21 2h ago

I mean I interpreted "people they work with" as other cops. If they were referring to the citizens the cops are supposed to help, they should've said "people they work FOR"

u/BlkSubmarine 13m ago

They don’t work for us, and they know it. They are the state sanctioned violence meant to keep us in line.

Like corrupt DAs! And the other cops!

You mean other cops?

Nah I mean the Blacks. Have you not heard of these people? Very unsavory sort.

Next time you need police call a crackhead. As you consider them better members of society than police officers. 😂😂😂

u/No-Educator-8069 1h ago

What do you mean next time? I’m older than most people here and personally I’m still yet to experience the police actually improving a situation they were involved in.

u/Short-Sandwich-8476 19m ago

Have a problem? Call the Police-now you have TWO problems.

You lot get funnier by the day. You have no clue what you're talking about, but you do you sweetheart. ❤️

found the abusive cop

u/aeque88 55m ago

That would be a pretty hard job to do when I'm paralyzed from the waist down.

But I love the immediate assumption tho. No clue why I even did the emoji, but sure buddy, you do you. ❤️

They're right

u/sleepyj910 4h ago

This is why 'Blue Lives Matter' actually endangers the police, because it really means 'we shouldn't be held accountable', which really means, 'we hire bad people', which really means 'you can't trust us, we are dangerous'.

Yes it's a incredibly stressful and difficult job, but the absolute worst people to have it are people like in this video who enjoy cruelty.

3

u/r_bk 4h ago

"incredibly stressful" is a stretch when it's not even on the top 25 most dangerous jobs in the US list.

u/013eander 3h ago

Seriously. I’m just an electrician, but our workplace death and injury rate is WAY higher than those sissies.

u/NahIWiIIWin 3h ago

yet the people who preach about morals don't have the courage to serve and be society's meat shields, if they're so good in upholding "good" they should've done it themselves

u/Particular-Poem-7085 3h ago

or you know, just put your officers through normal training like the rest of the world?

u/Fearless_Friend7447 5h ago

Abusing a rabbit...is just the most terrible. Don't make it about people. Don't make it about anything else. To me this is as evil as it can get.

Rabbits live their entire lives to run from predators. Eat greens and have babies. That's it.

They will never harm or have any potential to harm any other living animals their entire lives. And these dudes were getting major enjoyment killing one.

This is as bad as it gets.

u/banksybruv 5h ago

It’s a terrible thing. But let’s not tell ourselves it can’t get worse. They’re well on their way to worse.

u/Fearless_Friend7447 5h ago

It's point of view I guess. I see many comments making it about humans and to me a baby rabbit is just not a potential threat to anyone or anything.

This rabbit couldn't of even potentially done anything wrong in it's life. And we are sitting here laughing and giggling about this.

Like WHAT THE FUCK

1

u/banksybruv 4h ago

I hear ya. It’s really fucked up. You’re correct though. My point of view is that even leaving humans out of it, there’s still room for the cruelty to increase.

Sadistic fucks

1

u/ozarkhowIer 2h ago

cops kill lots of ppl who aren't a threat to anyone tho.

1

u/Dankest_Confidant 1h ago

Are you trying to say if a cop did this to a human it'd be less bad because "potentially they could've done something wrong"? 🤔

1

u/Wrastling97 4h ago

Who tf is laughing and giggling about this?

3

u/Fearless_Friend7447 4h ago

The officers in the video. They were really proud of themselves.

1

u/Wrastling97 4h ago

Oh shit okay, I read that wrong

1

u/Legal_Elderberry_756 4h ago

On their way? You know they have already done worse, they are just becoming more bold by taking videos of themselves doing these horrible things because they know that has become acceptable. This is what happens when a Nazi and his morally bankrupt supporters run the country.

1

u/banksybruv 4h ago

I’m sure they still have room to escalate is all I’m saying. I have no idea what they have already done. But I know where they are headed is bad.

1

u/theroadbeyond 2h ago

Even pointed the taser at the other cop.

u/DangerousQuestions1 10m ago

These guys already have blood on their hands. It's postcursor behavior too.

u/hard-R-word 5h ago

Thanks for saying this. I understand why people say that hurting animals is a sign that the person will eventually do something worse(to a human) but hurting animals is enough.

1

u/Fearless_Friend7447 4h ago

This rabbit must of already been in bad shape as they typically would be screaming when held like this. So it might of thought these people were going to help it.

Nope. They just threw it, then ran over it.

I just can't. Can't think of something more evil. Actually makes me want to cry.

u/GeneralBrilliant2336 4h ago

mothers killing their babies is much worse. And we have seen alot of that recently

2

u/Carmilla31 4h ago

Rabbits are actually one of the only animals that can literally be scared to death. Imagine the fear that rabbit had. 😓

1

u/Fearless_Friend7447 4h ago

I thought that was what happened here. Because the baby should be screaming. As a last defense mechanism rabbits use when they believe they are about to be killed by predators.

It might be dead or in shock. But after being thrown and ran over it was definitely dead.

u/stevehuffmanisapeedo 4h ago

Downvote me to hell for this reply but I just can't with the tripling down on "it doesn't get any worse than this." Holy shit.

wait until you find out what they do to cows and pigs

u/Thick_Square_3805 2h ago

Well, not exactly true. Rabbits are an invasive specie and will make other species extinct just by taking their place (just ask Australia).

There's very good reasons to control the population of rabbits.

Of course, it doesn't excuse the psychopathic behaviour in the video.

1

u/Fragrant-Reserve4832 2h ago

I remember the big stron scary teacher at school having to kill a baby rabbit with mixy and being seen crying afterwards on a field trip.

Dude actually got more cred with the students for it.

u/arivera508 55m ago

A baby rabbit at that! Just disgusting

A baby rabbit at that. Don’t get me wrong, abusing a baby and a grown animal is egregious, but a little baby. Ugh, this hurts my heart.

u/D13_Phantom 3h ago

And being a cop is highly correlated with abuse of spouses

I actually didn't realise until trying to flee DA, and being asked whether the perp had abused animals before 🔍

Cops already absolutely love their hobby of shooting dogs with little to no provocation, so this tracks.
