This gets posted, we all get mad, express our anger in posts, then quietly forget about it because doing something about it takes too much effort.

In any other situation I would agree, but what could that little kid say to threaten that huge cop?

i thought i was the only one. sigh.

in all seriousness though, that picture is disgraceful and makes me ashamed to be an american. this is becoming far too familiar and it's just pathetic anymore. we give badges to idiots and let them wreak havoc.

has anyone else read the phillip zombardo prison experiments before? it doesn't surprise me in the least.

[–]GoatsTongue 2 points3 points ago

While I would never discourage anyone from feeling ashamed to be American, that photo is actually from Brazil.

This was in Brazil, btw. Don't go whining about how your local cops are pigs because you saw some picture sans-context on the internet.

....and some wonder why there is so much hatred towards "law enforcement" in minority communities. That's "Going Above and Beyond"...Beyond Asshole!!

Does he go home after that and tell the wife about his day?? "Yeah, it was a rough one today honey....This 8yr old (insert racial slur) got too close to the building we were guarding...I sprayed some especially painful chemicals in her eyes at close range...took her down!" ......This just pisses me off!!

Will SOMEBODY do SOMETHING to stop these idiots from spraying everyone? It's like some kind of sexual get-off thing now for cops to spray people.

What the fuck is going on? Where is this? That family looks Australian. Is this in Australia?

What the fuck?

[–]TokiBumblebee -1 points0 points ago

How does one 'look' Australian?

[–]no1113 -1 points0 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Apologies. Perhaps I should have instead said aboriginal. That is what I meant. Given that aboriginal people ARE Australian, I made the mistake of saying Australian instead of aboriginal.

I hope you understand now and this suffices your rigorous standards of scrutiny, your highness.

EDIT: And, looking at the photograph again, it is actually mostly the woman holding the children (presumably the mother) that looks most aboriginal from this angle. The children do as well, but it's mostly the adult holding their hand. The taller woman in the background does not look such as much.
