In 1992, LA had riots sparked by police brutality. Since then, the LAPD has striven to uphold the utmost standards in police work . . . lol, no, they made sure ACAB applies double to them.

Used to be only black people being treated like this. Now we have equality!

I better hear something from every other police force in the country if they don't want this as proof ACAB.

[–] Furbag@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago

These cops are fucking scum and anybody who wears the LAPD badge should feel ashamed to be associated with them.

Wouldn’t be a shame if those Nazis got shot in the face with a hot turd.

I used to live right by the un and my block was always closed 2ce a year. Security wouldn’t let me in to get home and I had to call the doorman to come and vouch for me. No one shot me but they were dicks.

This video is so disturbing . I want to fly to LA

[–] burgerpocalyse@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

others already said this but it's so crazy that they're called rubber bullets when they are like 40mm artillery rounds

Supposedly how would it be if protesters loaded water balloons with liquid ass and threw it at them?

[–] Witchfire@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Liquid ass is too nice for Gestapo

I think I've seen this before, years ago. But it's also possible this happens regularly in US.

[–] destructdisc@lemmy.world 20 points 1 week ago

This does happen regularly in the US.

What was going on in the background during the last 10 seconds of the video? You hear a bang, then someone repeating "Watch your legs officers!".

[–] YesButActuallyMaybe@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 week ago

Watch you legs means the horse police is going to run over people
