A police officer speeds 70 MPH down a two-lane highway running over a bridge in the Florida Keys. He passes a dump truck in a no-passing zone, then immediately does it again, crossing over a double-yellow line to pass another truck. He passes a third vehicle, nearly causing a head-on collision with a white pickup truck that veers away from him in the oncoming traffic. The cop keeps driving, and sees the SUV he’s been in pursuit of. He flicks his sirens and lights on and pulls it over.

The cop, Lamar Roman, wasn’t trying to pull over a suspected criminal. He was tracking and chasing a woman that he met and harassed on the set of the AppleTV+ show Bad Monkey, which he had worked a security detail shift on a few weeks prior to pulling her over. After meeting the woman, catcalling her and harassing her for her full name and Instagram details, the cop illegally looked up her vehicle information on DAVID, a Florida Department of Motor Vehicles database for law enforcement. He then put her license plate details on a surveillance “hotlist,” meaning he would get a notification in real time anytime she drove by an AI-powered license plate surveillance camera.

        Not all of them but unfortunately 90% are unqualified to work in garbage disposal let alone “serve and protect”.

          Yes. All of them. They signed up to be the occupying army of a fascist state. They are at war with us. Their own training teaches them to think and behave so. Every day when they put that uniform on they decide of their own free will that they are not human beings but pigs. They must necessarily do so in order believe they have the right to murderremoved and imprison the humans they brutalize professionally. To continue regarding these self made pigs as human is foolish, immoral, and a denial of the humanity of their victims
