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

lol "you can do better"

that's the line from the Seinfeld when Jerry and George tell people "you can do better than him" in front of the boyfriend

Fewer.

Fun fact, you can see that this poster is for Seattle.

The police union has used its power to force the city to not allow more than about 24 responders on the "CARE" team, which is a team of non-police responders that are basically just well-equipped social workers with formal training that lets them incredibly effectively handle things like mental health emergencies, drug users, etc.

They then put additional restrictions in place to make it even harder for those people to get dispatched to a scene, such as if any drugs are visible at all, if the person is "confrontational", if they're in a building or car, or if there's an "indication" they've committed any form of crime at all.

Dispatchers also can't send the CARE team alongside police anymore.

The police don't just do their jobs badly, they force the city to spend money on their high salary and high overtime wages to get worse results, instead of sending in actual professionals.

ACAB.

I fucken got stuck talking to a libertarian coworker yesterday who was all about negative enforcement. Dude truly believed we needed more punishment and more cops.

*fewer

I'm all for this message, but the execution is bad in terms of actual advertising psychology. Most people will only glance at it for a mere moment, seeing a nice cop with a "you wanna be a cop?" and nothing more. This is the exact opposite of what the ad is trying to convey.

They mean "fewer," not "less." Police are countable.

less cop, less overbloated gang UNION/benefits funding. the top 2 require alot more education and certification(masters level) than a cop, emts are just super- under paid.

Start paying EMT's like the pigs and maybe that's a choice.

But if we DONT have COPS who will Prevent Crimes? Investigate Crimes? Stop Crimes? Arrest BLACK Children?

My IQ's 30 points off from meeting the threshold to be a cop. :/

And thus that'd be a daily/constant trigger for my illithiophobia among my colleagues if I were to become one.

Nurses, Libraries, EMTs, yus, much better for the world.

So You Wanna Be a Cop?
