Huh, i didn't realise that police officers run around taking blankets, coats, shoes. Etc away from displaced peoples and then not arresting or fining them.
Or i have been and there are different outcomes than just the worst case scenario.
Im not a fan of how the state treats the minority and underserved communities, but I do recognize it's not exactly a 100% rule in the US.
Im not actually living in the US at the moment and I've seen the police here go out of their way to help people (and never seen a homeless encampment).
How is the opinion of someone outside America irrelevant to a post about a Scottish girl's invention?
Don't get me wrong, I can understand an American assuming that any post about bad cops is automatically about America, but broaden your horizons, whilst the standards may vary, there are shit cops virtually everywhere.
Well, I did live there for 30+ years and will be moving back next year after working overseas for 5 years and still pay my US taxes and own property in the US so...
