From what I’ve seen in the videos, when the cops say “get out of the car”, “get down on your knees” or “put down the gun”, people either unresponsive or swear and refuse.

What’s the reason for this? In a place where the police have so much power, why don’t people care?

Update: I triggered people somehow. I’m not from US. I didn’t want to blame people. I apologize for asking a question about a subject that I don’t know. Won’t happen again.

    I’ll assume you’re asking in good faith. You know what’s I’ve always found interesting though? Nobody likes interacting with the police. I know some old churchy ladies that turn the other direction when they see a cop car. It says a lot about them that even the most law abiding, innocent citizens nope out when they see a LEO on the street.

    ACAB and fuck the police; (more than) half of every dollar given to law enforcement should be taken and be used for healthcare, social services, and education. It’d actually alleviate a lot more issues than the dog-shooting, minority-beating, blue wall of silence gang we have in the U.S.
