You have to treat a cop like an abusive parent, because that’s pretty much what they are - an authority figure with power over you that will happily abuse that power. Placate them and get the hell away as soon as possible.
The recent murder of Sonya Massey really underlines how accurate that is. Massey was fucking joking with the police. Everything was fine. They were there to help her. And then she made a joke the cop thought disrespected him and she was dead thirty seconds later.
It’s so fucking sickening and it’s exactly how abusive parents treat kids. You have to walk on eggshells 24-7 because there’s no telling what will trigger a violent reaction in the abuser - and because the abuser is confident he’ll suffer no consequences from his violence, he feels free to resort to violence at any opportunity.
Yeah. It fucking sucks when you know you’re completely within your rights, but if the cop decides to murder you on a whim, they’ll get away scot-free and you’ll be dead.
