The accounts of law enforcement’s actions during one of the worst school shootings in history are among a trove of recorded investigative interviews and body camera footage obtained by ProPublica, The Texas Tribune and FRONTLINE. Together, the hundreds of hours of audio and video offer a startling finding: The children in Uvalde were prepared, dutifully following what they had learned during active shooter drills, even as their friends and teachers were bleeding to death. Many of the officers, who had trained at least once during their careers for such a situation, were not.
Active shooter training, which emphasizes rushing into danger flatly contradicts all the other training and police culture that emphasize officer safety.
The Supreme Court has constantly ruled that police have no duty to protect life, enforce court orders, or uphold the law. In one of these cases, Castle Rock v. Gonzales, during oral arguments, Justice Ginsburg wondered aloud “what are police for”.
The police are guardians of property of the wealthy: slave catchers, night watchmen, and bodyguards who’ve been socialized so that the powerful can share the cost with the very people being regulated. Fuck the police.
Conservative viewpoint: Killing someone who is threatening your property is fine. Damaging property because someone got killed is not okay.
Police exist to protect the bourgeois from the proletariat.
That’s it.
If you own land, or own a business, you contribute a far larger tax dollar than some petty wage slave that rents. Why, such a degenerate individual clearly must exist for the sole use of the state.
