Public safety my ass... ("To protect and serve..." riggghhhhhtt)
I shot a deer, it died naturally.
It sucks that 33 officers died in the last two years. That's 33 job openings in a capitalist nightmare called a labor shortage. That's 33 potential truck drivers that could deliver your Amazon gifts for your soon to be dead parents.
