It's like violence is so normalized in the cop world they just bring it everywhere with them.

Let's not act like domestic violence isn't an issue for people working in all fields

40% self-reported kind of issue?

cyborganism@lemmy.ca · 1 pts · 2y

Of course not. What I'm saying is that it is relatively a much higher occurrence with police officers.

One cop's private domestic issue somehow represents 30k of NYPD cops. Very good logic. I like how you twist and reach that far.

It's like some people are too dense to understand cops are people and have the same hobbies and problems like most people do.

Punching your wife isn't a hobby.

Only two domestic violence incidents? That's rookie cop numbers.
