i live in a cop neighborhood

they take all those in that list the exact opposite and as a sign of why they believe cops are better people than everyone else

remember ... to overvalue oneself one only has to undervalue everyone else.

ironically Seattle still feels like a cop city to me, lol

well, yeah. police jobs pay better than private sector and get government benefits. best of both worlds, plus you get to murder and commit crimes with impunity. perfect if you have no soul.

unfortunately i phrased it that way because it is not a crime here when police murder. this fucking country.
