Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

National police chief: "a police officer should not be in prison, even if he may have committed serious faults or errors in the course of his work." Left-wing opposition blasted government for failing to rein in “a police hierarchy that places itself above the law”.

The victim's face today:

Police black-mails the government at every riot or whatever. They threaten not to protect the government if they are not given always more impunity. And it works every time. They started to kill and mutilate a lot more, and now guess what, they want more impunity.

This shit show accelerated under Macron, it's out of control. The recruiting standards were lowered at rock bottom, the training time has been shortened and they lowered the bar again. The job attracts mostly sociopaths these days as it's mostly about riot control, i.e. randomly breaking skulls and getting away with it.
