Ugh, I actually cringed a bit while reading this victim blaming. No one deserves to be arrested because they were a smartass, or because they called someone a rookie. Holy moly.
- freedomben 3y agoYou really need to read the whole comment. Particularly the first part. I'll even help you: > I agree this cop is an abusive dick and this arrest is bogus and should never have happened
- Sohcahtoa82 3y agoThe rest of that comment made that first sentence irrelevant. Everything after that first sentence is blaming the victim.
- freedomben 3y agoOk, can we walk through what I said so you can point out where I'm blaming the victim or saying that what the victim did makes the cop's behavior ok? > The petty insults throughout the process about him being a "rookie" and the "we beat <your team> last week" did not help him at all. Do you think the petty insults did help the kid? > Of course it's not illegal to be a smartass Does this somehow seem like me defending the arrest? > but pro-tip for people in the future: cops are humans Are cops not human? > if you stoop to personal insults it's not going to make them want to be nice to you. Do you think that personal insults make cops want to be nice to you? (assuming you don't disagree with the earlier part about cops being human).
- Sohcahtoa82 3y agoBro, that's literally all victim blaming.
