I watched the crying cop McDonald’s video this morning. It’s an interesting thing. While she is being ridiculed, I think it presents a very good illustration, rather than someone that didn’t get proper back the blue attention.
Between the riots, assassinations and immunity revoke, cops are feeling the same sense of fear that they create everyday, across the United States. I’m not going to make fun of her, because what I saw in that video was
every crying mother that had armed police escort their children away with CPS, powerless. Every person that has had they’re cars ripped apart by cops trying to find something worth locking them away for years, after a minor traffic faux pas.
Every sinking feeling in the pit of our stomach when a cop car follows us on the road. Every false accusation of resisting. Every “I smell weed.” Every false accusation of found narcotics.
Every gun pointed at us for simply declaring they have no right to accuse or detain, and are enforcing an unjust law.
Just the threat of accountability, from the public and their employers, is making police terrified.

It’s causing them to walkout of their jobs and post videos like this on Facebook. It’s interesting to see such a reaction when they are on the receiving end for such a small amount of time.
This fear of unknown force has empowered their brutality and advanced their careers for so long, and they can’t handle a moment of it. I think it’s time they look at that video and think,
if I am causing this type of response, everyday, with my sidearm, red and blue lights, authority and immunity, and blacked out cruiser, to the people I swore to serve and protect, maybe I should rethink who I am, and what I do.
Maybe I should treat others the way I want to be treated.
