LAPD is about to reveal a new tool for surveillance termed LAPD live. Following the approval of next year's budget, LAPD will be able to remotely access live footage from…
Did you miss the whole ‘gang members are cops’ thing in the article someone pasted to you? Weird, because they quoted a relevant sentence and you responded to it.
Gangs are the ones that justify cops’ existence, though. Without cops, gangs will just have their way with everyone like they do in Mexico and did in El Salvador.
We experimented with not having cops in CHAZ and gangs started killing people very quickly.
I’m going to block you by the way. You keep following me around and replying to all of my comments adnauseam with useless information. It’s very weird.
They don’t want to protect us bro. That’s why everyone hates the LAPD. Imagine being the victim of a crime and being laughed out of the station. Or getting robbed, and waiting 45 minutes for someone who literally doesn’t give a shit to show up.
Also, as someone pointed out, the only thing they do about gangs is form their own.
I honestly don’t see why anyone would want to be an LA cop.
It’s harder than being a cop pretty much anywhere else and everyone hates you, even the people you’re trying to protect.
I would just say the city can burn if they love crime so much, which they clearly do.

Yes, but what does this have to do with my comment?
Yeahbut yeahbut yeahbut.
That they’re doing a poor job of “trying to protect”. They’re the threat that people need protection from.
Really? What about gangbangers?

Goodbye.
Following you around? What?
Guy argues like a pigeon playing chess.
Ah yes, all the bangers down in the gangs… what will we do about the banging gangs…

Use your words.
Didn’t need to.
Yes you did, but that’s fine if you don’t want to.
I don’t expect you to articulate your argument because you’re not confident in it.
Weird, because Los Angeles isn’t in this list of the 25 most dangerous cities in America.

You must have been thinking of Memphis, Tennessee or Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Albuquerque seemed alright when I went there, though admittedly there was an eclipse going on at the time which may have influenced my opinions.
