Lmao after I get my masters degree Iām hoping and praying I can make at least $40k
$400k is INSANE
If you make $15 per hour, your Yearly salary would be $29,250.
Assuming 40 hours a week, that equals 2,080 hours in a year. Your annual salary of $400,000 would end up being about $192.31 per hour.
You know just for a bit of perspective.
hey man you got some weed? if i dont keep my buddy kyle constantly baked then he just kills people 24/7
you know i feel like there was some piece of media that had this as a plot point but i just canāt quite put my finger on it. i suppose it will have to remain a mystery. what a shame

Nah dude, some police are genuinely trying to make the world a better place. They go through a lot of shit so that they can try and help people. I hate most of the shit police do. I don't like being told what to do either. But people are fucking killing cops. That's people killin people and it's fucked. You're the death of your own cause if you condone violence and murder ya dumb fuck. Black lives matter, let's protect them by not murdering good people and giving nazis any sort of argument.
Gonna break down this response as clearly as possible.Ā
The origins of the police are evil.Ā
It has been shown repeatedly that the police were formed to oppress the working class and (1, 2) and enforce white supremacy (1, 2, 3). In fact, the early U.S. police grew directly out of slavery.
The police arenāt the people you think they are.
The police donāt care about you ā they donāt even have a constitutional duty to protect you. Theyāre allowed to take your property without your consent (the NYPD seizes so much property they canāt even log it in their computers). In fact, cops are more likely to steal your property than burglars are. They commit hundreds of crimes and human rights violations against people like you & me and get away with it because they cover for each other.
Cops tend to be unusually aggressive, authoritarian, and secretive (Greene & Heilbrun, 2011). They are more than twice as likely to commit domestic violence than the rest of the population, and (once again) they cover for each other when doing so. The police are on the side of neo-Nazis (1, 2). In fact, many times the police themselves are the neo-Nazis/klansmen (1, 2, 3). And even besides all this, cops do all kinds of other shady shit ā for instance, undercover police are used to instigate fights during protests and rallies.
The police terrorize those of us who are marginalized.
The police disproportionately arrest Black people for drugs even though white people use drugs more often. They disproportionately pull Black people over for traffic stops. The police terrorize people with disabilities.They are viciously anti-indigenous ā and always have been. Police terrorize sex workers. There are countless examples of police brutalizing homeless people (1, 2, 3). The police have a lengthy history of brutality against the LGBT community (1, 2). They terrorize women of color and get away with itĀ (1, 2, 3). They kill massive numbers of people each yearĀ ā and a disproportionate number of their victims are Black and native. On top of that, recent data suggests cops may kill up to twice as many people as we even thought they did. And while police love to defend themselves by saying they have the most dangerous job, thatās not even close to being true.
The policeās best kept secret: We donāt need them!Ā
A world without the police is completely possible (1, 2, 3, 4). We have resources for resolving violence as communities without the need for state intervention (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 ā as some examples). We as communities are better capable of resolving violence than the police are, because we donāt have the vested interest in the status quo that they have. Even if a few cops are well-intentioned here or there, it doesnāt change that the role of the police is to work against the vast majority of us in the interests of the (white) elite few.Ā
Why are you so invested in the police when they are complicit in your dehumanization?
51 feels like the least likely number to be divisible by 3 you know what i mean. and yet
If you don't support the blm protesters right now because "violence is never the answer" then you don't get to celebrate pride month because I can promise you wouldn't have liked Stonewall either.
bitch i donāt have a ādream jobā i dream about living in a cottage making soap and painting titties. capitalism is a nightmare
THE DEATH AND LIFE OF MARSHA P. JOHNSON (2017)
History isnāt something you look back at and say it was inevitable. It happens because people make decisions that are sometimes very impulsive and of the moment, but those moments are cumulative realities. ā Marsha P. Johnson
Queens started being filed out and being put into police cars, and guns had been drawn. Molotov cocktails were flying. And Iām like, āOh my God, the revolution is here. Thank God. Youāve been treating us like shit all these years? Uh uh. Now itās our turn.ā ā Sylvia Rivera
