Reply to comment by lets-get-switfyyyy in Update: Someone busted out my windows on Black Friday and stole our bank cards by Cursed_ChampagnePapi

Even a decade ago the police didn't do shit about theft, unless it was from a big corporate store or a McMansion in Ravenwood. "They are short officers" is just the latest excuse for them to not do anything at all to help the average person.

Most police officers are really made up of the average people, coming from mostly middle class or low income families so I don’t understand how people think they don’t help those people. Also most crime happens to low income people from low income people.

I don't care where they came from, I care about their actions, which show they're basically mercenaries for the rich and white.

That doesn’t even make any sense. Especially in Springfield with it being such a diverse community. I see your stance on things so there is no reason to continue.

Well, your first problem is that you think Springfield is diverse.

Any statement you make stems from your idea of the police being “basically mercenaries for the rich and white”. We just have different opinions so might as well leave it at that.

I wonder what could have possibly given me that idea? Surely it isn't the direct, obersavble actions of police departments across the country...that would be ridiculous.
