That’s right, tough guys (and gals) cry too. No matter how intimidating and stone cold a cop might look like on the outside, every one of us has moments where we break down and cry or at least should. This listener-driven episode goes to the place most cops don’t like to go.

Derek Chauvin Sentence and Finding the Perfect Lap - Public Version

PSA:Change in schedule for next two months or so: Roll calls as I can get to them Members will get all of them in full Audio only This reduces production timeOur t-shirts are in progress! Members get discountsNew tumbler is coming soon!Recent events:More states are starting to make changes to their qualified immunity lawsLooks like a dog and pony show right nowBut what is it?Qualified immunity is a type of legal immunity. “Qualified immunity balances two important interests—the need to hold public officials accountable when they exercise power irresponsibly and the need to shield officials from harassment, distraction, and liability when they perform their duties reasonably.” Pearson v. Callahan .Specifically, qualified immunity protects a government official from lawsuits alleging that the official violated a plaintiff's rights, only allowing suits where officials violated a “clearly established” statutory or constitutional right. When determining whether or not a right was “clearly established,” courts consider whether a hypothetical reasonable official would have known that the defendant’s conduct violated the plaintiff’s rights. Courts conducting this analysis apply the law that was in force at the time of the alleged violation, not the law in effect when the court considers the case.Qualified immunity is not immunity from having to pay money damages, but rather immunity from having to go through the costs of a trial at all. Accordingly, courts must resolve qualified immunity issues as early in a case as possible, preferably before discovery.Qualified immunity only applies to suits against government officials as individuals, not suits against the government for damages caused by the officials’ actions. As long as officers are protected from facing civil suits, it’s still in effectThe whole point is to keep govt officials free to do their jobs.Without this protection, cops will not be able to work. True bans of qualified immunity will render that LEO agency ineffective and defunctCitation/Book Section:Weekly wisdom: Becoming a Cop is like Taking the Red pillThe world you know is only a façadThe truth is that you are surrounded by pain, suffering, destruction, and evilYou can’t be told, you have to see it for yourselfYou can’t unsee it, you just have to decide what to do with the truthHow to decide if you should become a police officer:All I offer is the truth, nothing morePolice work will force you to see the truth about human natureIf you want to be a police officer: You should be a person who is willing to give up the comfort of the matrix Life is simple, peaceful, and safe (so you think) when you can ignore the evil lurking in every dark corner When you take the red pill, you no longer have that comfort. Now you live in the darkness too You must be willing to accept the truth, the things you find in the dark, at face value You should be a person who refuses to accept a mediocre life Do not get into it for job security, the benefits, the retirement, etc. There are plenty of other big corporation jobs and govt jobs that have that The Matrix exists to keep people comfortable and productive, to keep the sheep happyWe are LIONS, good, strong and free. The world will look to us to face the greatest of evils. Take the red pill only if you’re willing to give up your comfortable, cozy, life of a sheep. Low Rider by Spooky and Boylan
