QuoteI can understand it's about not trusting the whole institution, but not everyone there is like that.
Well, that is a given, which is why I don't agree with acab entirely, but I don't live in the US, so I choose to not intervene when people from there say that. Locally, I have a friend who recently joined the police, and she tells me about how people there aren't as bad as the bad apples make it seem to people from the outside. I could assume things are similar over the US, but racism and corruption are definitely
very present in a rather explicit way, and from
my experience, most people I know from the US who know cops personally don't see them exactly as role models for good people, unlike myself, so that's one reason for me to give them credit when they say they don't trust their cops.
QuoteLack of trust should stem from the main intention and not from some of its individuals' attitude.
Thing is, you cannot really tell someone to trust something. It is personal, and this one in particular is a very serious topic.
My intention here is just to educate.
It's easily the best thing I've done
So why the empty numb?
