don't like who's there? vote them out next time
I have repeated the argument multiple times
none of this "impeach" shit
"there are differences"
what is the difference specifically
If Hillary Clinton said she wants to bomb China, you'd be freaking out right now, you'd be posting it everywhere
Russia, more likely
Authority changes things very significantly
what if she just said "I think China should be bombed"
You'd still freak out
it would still make news and she'd still recieve rebukes
like lindsay graham just singing "bomb bomb iran"
This is why democracy works, because we hold people with authority accountable. If we stop doing this, it all falls apart.
or whoever it was, I think it was graham
in that case she might have the legal resources to do so
and is in a position in which she is supposed to enact what she thinks "should" happen
the officer saying something should happen has neither of those qualities
Wrong
Police officers hold power over civilians
yeah policemen legally assassinate congressmen all the time bro
and it supposed to enact his own policies on the world
that's his job description
So if every police officer said the same thing suddenly about politicians
They just all started messaing on their FB page
"this guy that guy deserves a bullet"
Who cares, right?
right
this is a really lazy and round about way of making excuses for someone who ought to have known better than to wish death on a politician while employed by the state
Then I don't want to argue with you lol
Cause if you see it like this, nothing will convince you
sounds like i'm right
If police officers can't be held accountable for their words then society collapses
They have too much power to just be forgiven
anyway he shouldn't be posting death wishes about people that's kinda rude i agree
It's not just rude
especially while employed by the state lol
A civilian doing that is rude, and would still be looked into by the police
I mean, again, I chalk it up to everyone's growing lack of respect for the democratic process, just opting for removing people from office by whatever means, rather than focus on next elections to do it.
Might even get questioned
A police officer shouldn't be above that
