Biden has definitely done better than Trump in terms of racist law enforcement bullshit… but it’d also be appreciated if he did even better.
I hate that I have to vote for this sack of shit.
It’s literally no democracy vs. negative democracy.
This really represents how disenfranchised I feel these days, always having to spend my time voting for the lesser evil instead of someone who actually represents my interests.
Trump openly embraced white supremacists.
Totally unlike Biden eulogizing white supremacists, calling them good friends. Unlike Biden’s crime bill that defended white supremacy by targeting black men. Capitalism itself is born and upheld by white supremacy, which Biden and Co defend. The only difference is trump is a blatant racist, democrats are covert in their white supremacy.
The guy injecting billions to hire more cops while funding nearly 100 cop cities around the country is in no position to talk about other presidents. Marginalized communities are still feeling the impact of his crime bill.
The public demanded accountability and retraining for police officers and Biden’s solution has been to increase their funding. Increase the numbers of police officers on the streets and do absolutely nothing that was demanded of him from the public. In the meantime, deaths occurred at the hands of police have been increasing every year since George Floyd
I’m not aware of any cop city receiving federal funds
What the fuck is a cop city
If you prefer your answer without disinformation:
Cop City is the name of The Atlanta Public Safety Training Center. The center is planned to be used as a training campus for police and fire services and was expected to open at the end of 2023. Planned facilities include classrooms, a burn building, a mock city (including apartments, a bar/nightclub, and a school), and a shooting range.
None of Biden’s $334M funding is going to Cop City.
cop cities are being built all across america. they train cops for urban combat. the cops hired will be trained in these military facilities.
If you’re referring to the map on isyourlifebetter.net/cop-cities-usa/ then I’d recommend using its interactive features to look at the “cop cities” they link as having been built. Most of them are deescalation training facilities or just new police departments, not cop playgrounds.
The map on that website makes its way around to incite reaction, often without linking the website itself. Cop City in Atlanta, however, is real and very concerning.
I’m referring to Shapiro’s cop city in pa. I am so fucking do e with democrats.
I didn’t see that one until you pointed it out. You’re right. That’s just as concerning as the one in Atlanta.
There’s no reason to throw a partisan wedge. I’m just interested in learning the truth, and there’s a lot of misinformation out there. Personally, I think police should focus on deescalation training and maximizing the use of less-lethal weapons over playing in shooting galleries.
How incredibly ill informed to assume Atlanta is the only one. There are nearly 100 going up around the country. All being trained by the IDF.
Do you have a source so I can read more about it? I’m not finding anything in my searches.
Another commenter pointed out the one going up in PA, and I read an article on it. It’s just as concerning as the one in Atlanta, but there was no mention of the IDF in either facility.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cop_City
Basically a giant playground for cops, so the IDF can train cops in urban warfare so inner cities can be turned into Gaza.
The US military trained the IDF. Since the early 2000s, thousands of U.S. police officers, sheriffs, border patrol agents, ICE officers and FBI agents have trained with Israeli military and police forces in Israel, not Atlanta.
The truth is bad enough. There’s no need for fabrication.

Says the guy who was against the civil rights movement because he didn’t want his “grandchildren living in a racial jungle.” Oops, sorry, I forgot I’m not allowed to use Biden’s past to point out his hypocrisy. I’m sure he has totally learned to be more tolerant, like every other old “former” intolerant white people /s.
No, you can say it. He was wrong to say it in 1977, and it would be wrong if he still felt that way today, 47 years later. Thankfully, he’s changed over time, as people tend to do.
