4. Cops are a part of our government that openly hate us.

I have often wondered if we are not in an abusive situation when it comes to our government, at least when Republicans are in charge. They barely pay us enough to live in the first place, take some of our paychecks, then turn around and call us beggars if we ask for any of it back in the form of services, protections, or help during a pandemic.

Meanwhile, they vote themselves pay raises ever so often and act like they personally earned all of this money they took from us and decided to give to the rich. They call us freeloaders and worthless beggars, tell us to buy overpriced insurance for even more overpriced healthcare or die if we need healthcare and are poor, but always GLADLY dig deep into money they took from us to give their billionaire buddies more and more money they don't need.

They also don't mind digging deep to build more bombs to blow brown people half a world away into bits against most of our wishes.

And now, Trump's antisocial, cruel, vindictive wall is another waste of our money too. Most of the people who use that path would be just innocent families trying to escape horrible situations, not drug dealers, rapists*, etc. The drug dealers would be using the hundreds of miles of tunnels under various cities south of the border into various US cities. Under Trump's wall, there will be laughter as they freely come and go and American idiots waste money on that hateful wall.

All in all, our government mostly secretly despises us and just wants to take money from us, then turn around and treat us like garbage. Cops are just being more honest and open about the fact that they only want to beat us down if we dare complain about the shit treatment they already give us. That still don't make it right. It's crap all the way around. Cops piss me off.

*I despise when anyone claims rape as their reason for anything, because rape is a CINO, crime in name only. It almost never gets charged or prosecuted when women get raped. We are told we must have changed our minds or did something to ask for it or we are just sluts or in my case, deserved it for being gay. Cops told me to go to church when I got raped for being a lesbian. Cops are pro-rape, if you ask me. Look at how they treat people. It's all about beating someone down, then pinning them down on top of that. Once a person is cuffed and face down on the pavement, why do they feel the need to have several men holding them down too? That's rape-like all by itself. It is their mentality, clearly.
