ALSO, "I don't hear thank you enough anymore" and her saying she likes to pay for her food because she doesn't want other people offering. WOW, BOO FUCKING HOOOOOOOO

[pseudonygma]

I mean... a police officer's job is to serve and protect. They don't call it public service for nothing. It's literally a job requirement for her to give 100%, else people die.

Maybe if the police force spent less time being unaccountable, terrorizing, murderous bullies with rage issues, and more time looking out for their city and its people, they'd get thanked more.

This isn't true. The police don't owe citizens police services, as ruled by the DC Court of Appeals

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warren_v._District_of_Columbia

Sry for the edit (and making this super long), but I feel like people need to actually read/know this. There are 2 separate cases included in this decision and the one which the case takes its name from is HORRIFIC:

"Warren's call was received at Metropolitan Police Department Headquarters at 0623 hours, and was recorded as a burglary-in-progress. At 0626, a call was dispatched to officers on the street as a "Code 2" assignment, although calls of a crime in progress should be given priority and designated as "Code 1." Four police cruisers responded to the broadcast; three to the Lamont Street address and one to another address to investigate a possible suspect

Omg, I feel sick.

"absent a special relationship between the police and an individual, no specific legal duty exists"

WTF does that even mean? If you're not BFFs with the police officer sent to you, they can just show up, say "no thanks" and leave?????

JFC, that actually explains a lot about the US justice system. Who are the 4 people who decided that this is okay? Why TF would ANYONE want to establish this kind of jurisprudence??? I have no words... These poor women...

[semalina]

there *some* reason why the court decided this, but i can't remember it and i can't remember the podcast where i heard it >(

[vvitchbaby]

Not that this isn't horrific, but if it only made it to the DC Court of Appeals, this only applies to DC

[semalina]

i'm not sure if this is actually true, but i'm not a lawyer. my understanding is that since it's for the court of appeals vs court of appeals circuit, it can be used as precedence?

[vvitchbaby]

I'm not sure about that either, bc I didn't realize there is a difference! Quick look on Wikipedia says that the US Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit is the one that oversees Congress and government agencies, so I would assume that is the court that sets precedence?

[vvitchbaby]

Actually the more I think about it, the more my view doesn't make sense, so you're probably right. The Court of Appeals is the DC "state" court so another state could theoretically use their ruling, but it could be appealed to the Supreme Court for a federal finding. But then, I thought it was Circuit rulings that then move to the SC so I'm really not sure lol Wish I had a lawyer friend to ask

[semalina]

calling all ONTD University lawyers to the matter!!

Aww RIP Chris March

[londonsquare]

She gets thanked by direct deposit every two weeks. Like my god.

[irajaxon]

that's the bit that gets me the most, it's so patheticcccc
