Uh oh… what happened this time. I get most of my news from Lemmy shitposts.

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 19 points 3 days ago

Actually I think this might just be an evergreen post since it's always relevant.

[–] glitchdx@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

If it's the one I heard my maga coworkers giggling about, some guy shot at a cop (unsure if missed or non fatal wound), another cop ran the person over (instantly fatal).

Doesn't belong: "COMPLY FIRST AND FIGHT IT IN COURT LATER" isn't bootlicking, it's survival advice. It's unfair and shouldn't be necessary, but this has a good chance of keeping you alive when they're abusing their authority...

[–] SwingingTheLamp@piefed.zip 25 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Counterpoint: Philando Castile, Daniel Shaver, Renee Good.

That's why it's Bootlicker Bullshit Bingo card.

[–] Macchi_the_Slime@piefed.blahaj.zone 19 points 3 days ago (1 children)

That's just some fairly recent examples too. There are dozens and dozens of cases of people fully complying and getting killed anyway. Cases where officers were issuing completely impossible or contradictory commands, "suspects" being told to "stop resisting" and being beaten to death when other angles show them not resisting at all. The list goes on and on. "Complying" is not a good way to keep from being brutalized or killed, you're always just rolling the dice of whether or not you're dealing with a psychopath or not.

Yeah well it probably is still better than not doing it

Best advice is avoid law enforcement altogether whenever possible

Yeah for the person in the moment the best course of action is whatever is going to make survival most likely. I'm more saying it for people who think that complying is some magic spell that will stop police from just killing you if they feel like it.

I've had a taillight out for months but every time I drive past a cop I just gun it and gtfo. Sometimes they chase but damnit I don't have time to be messing around with a taillight.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

just because it doesn't always work doesn't mean it's a best practice when dealing with police. dealing with ICE is a different scenario.

[–] SwingingTheLamp@piefed.zip 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The bootlickers aren't giving practical advice when they say it; they're victim-blaming.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Also have you tasted really premium boot? Not that shit the police wear but some real llama leather with mud in it, boiled for eighteen hours until it's lace tripping tender. Tell me you can resist that

[–] SwingingTheLamp@piefed.zip 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Oh. I was supposed to lick it? I, uh, might've eaten it.

[–] zbyte64@awful.systems 1 points 2 days ago

New recipe calls to make a stew with the pig still attached to the boot

[–] Forester@pawb.social 4 points 3 days ago

No no, it's far better to be carried by six than tried by twelve. /S

"Next time you need help call a crackhead"

Absolutely, man! They're stronger than they look and will do anything for $20

I had a neighbor once who was a recovering addict and owned a small roadside trash pickup business. According to him, he got off the crack but stayed on the crackhead grind. He was awesome

“But they didn’t show the whole video” is what we also say to cops/the right when they post the clips of them gunning people down

[–] yermaw@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

"but they didnt show the whole video" is always an acceptable argument as long as its true, no matter which side is saying it.

[–] zbyte64@awful.systems 3 points 2 days ago

Like when the DoJ doesn't release the full video of Epstein's death we get to make any argument we want

[–] cardamon@leminal.space 2 points 2 days ago

lol please no kinkshaming!

Center and bottom right is kind of the same. Not sure which to cross if it happens.

The saying famously of course is "one bad apple doesn't spoil the bunch" /s
