For example: I remember seeing a video that I can’t find now, of an officer’s dash cam as he pulled over a white guy for drunk driving
Cop walks up, standing in front of the truck window talking to the guy, asks him how much he’s had to drink tonight
“Plenty” is his response
Then in less than 2 seconds, a revolver is leveled out the window at the cop’s face and the trigger is pulled. But the gun jams, or else the drunk perp forgot that chamber was empty. Regardless the cop is saved by grace and returns fire as the man speeds off, killing him
Not only does that situation factor into why most of America would never be a cop, but also why cops are so paranoid because they understand just how fast they can die
Also, btw that man was included in news’ cherry picked statistics of the “thousands of people killed by cops” (the number shrinks down 1000% when it gets trimmed to “un-lawfully killed by cops aka not self defense”)
