Whenever I see something like this I feel I must defend my friend who's a cop.

Before being a cop he was a lifeguard at a beach and my bassist.

Baywatch may tell you differently, but being a lifeguard is a seasonal job, and not a career. The next level of being a lifeguard is becoming a cop, so he did, and he has only beaten one black man so far.

TIL lifeguards are racist.

It says (parody) in the name.

This is twitter, because elon lacks reading comprehension, so the rules require parody to be clearly marked.

Musk says he has Asperger's, so that'd be fair if he also wasn't a liar.

For parody it would have to be untrue, yes?

...it didn't even register with me until i read this comment. I didn't even realize something was amiss. FML.

Not every racist is a police officer...

Yeah, some of them are prosecutors

... But every police officer is racist!

Even if it's obvious, it's still important to say

I added that line because they got downvoted, assumed it was because someone thought it was just a statement rather than starting that train of thought

One can read, the other one can write

[–] Catoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 2 days ago

Ooh, someone’s from a fancy pants big city where the cops went to high school.

What rolls down stairs

Alone or in pairs

Roll over your neighbors dog

[–] HonkTonkWoman@lemm.ee 16 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Who will roll you down the stairs

Confiscate your wares

May even shoot your dog

[–] TSG_Asmodeus@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago

It's hogs, hogs, hogs

It's cops, cops, cops!

[–] numberfour002@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

As luck would have it, I’ve got a similar number of anuses.

[–] dactylotheca@suppo.fi 3 points 2 days ago

The recommended number of anuses is one
