      Did you miss the whole ‘gang members are cops’ thing in the article someone pasted to you? Weird, because they quoted a relevant sentence and you responded to it.

        Gangs are the ones that justify cops’ existence, though. Without cops, gangs will just have their way with everyone like they do in Mexico and did in El Salvador.

        We experimented with not having cops in CHAZ and gangs started killing people very quickly.

        I’m going to block you by the way. You keep following me around and replying to all of my comments adnauseam with useless information. It’s very weird.

        Goodbye.

            Yes you did, but that’s fine if you don’t want to.

            I don’t expect you to articulate your argument because you’re not confident in it.

              Here we go again, what’s your thoughts on gangs in the LAPD? Why was the comment earlier about them existing not part of the conversation? Why are gangs a concern when its not the cops?

                They both can be concerns.

                  Okay, you are answering questions, now what about LA not being the most dangerous city makes it the worst place to be a cop? And why do the cops in LA keep shooting people with non dangerous objects in their hands? Why did you pivot from the questions about police corruption to pointing to gangs when cops are part of that problem?

                    Sorry, I’m done arguing with you.

                    It’s clear you just want to keep responding, so I’ll give you the last response.

                    Goodbye.
