For just an instant, he stopped being NYPD and simply became a New Yorker and I had a lot of sympathy for him.

Tactically, I am very happy with local law enforcement even the NYPD of all fuckin' agencies beefing with ICE. It's a vital and wonderful step. But yes, it's hilarious in the irony. This dude thought it would always be other people on the receiving end of the injustice, I guess.

He forgot to compare the color chart with what he saw in the mirror... Whoops!

Not just color, we're well on our way to white on white racism just like the "good ole'" days when America was great (I think, still haven't gotten a solid answer on when that was.)

Leopards ate my face material.

It's not quite that... the NYPD has more than twice as many employees in New York as ICE has nationwide. Police forces in American megacities are sort of equivalent to the whole militaries of some small countries. That's why events like this are a real good thing. This one, at least as much as is shown in this clip, is more the leopard trying to eat the face and getting slapped away.

This is the kind of factor that Gene Sharp means when he says that dictatorships can collapse literally in weeks or days when their support goes away, given the right kind of circumstances.

There's a certain irony to that when NYPD racially profiled people for years and years.

Officer, we are gonna need to stop and frisk you.

Why is that court officer moving to do what they say? They're not his superiors in any way and they're blocking a hallway and shoving people for no good reason. He should be keeping order against the goons disrupting the court.

Court officer is used to following the hierarchy and having a little trouble placing these dudes on the org chart.

The NYPD and ICE should have a gunfight! Call for backup and start The Ultimate Showdown of ultimate destiny.

The fight raged on for a century,

many lives were claimed but eventually,

the champion stood, the rest saw their better:

I find ICE significantly worse than police department because at the very least police department's goal is to try to protect the community whereas ICE plans to roll out a fascist regime.

IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 318d (4 replies)

No doubt that ice is even worse than police.

We just have to make sure that when they fight we aren't in support of either of them.

AA5B@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 318d (3 replies)

Not at all. We can certainly support the least evil choice. We just need to recognize that defeating the larger evil is not the final battle

IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 318d (2 replies)

just as long as no one sympathises with the cops.

it's a cancer fighting another cancer

pineapplelover@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 2 pts · 318d (1 reply)

If the police fights ICE then I'm all for it

IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 318d

when they are done they'll go back to fighting civilians.

they aren't the good guys.

let them fight, but root for no one
