Misunderstood by the public, people who enforce the laws.
4 main types of people that hate the police;
1: The 12 year old keyboard warrior. These people have never had bad interactions with the police before, but they're constantly reading on the Internet about how everyone hates the police and determines that hating the police is the trendy thing to do and decides to hop on the bandwagon.
2: The uppity college undergrad. They sit in Starbucks and blog about how oppressed they felt and how their rights were violated that one time they did a protest that blocked off a main street and a police officer told them to move. This is the same kind of person that will run around with a camera, antagonizing police to get a reaction out of them and then can be heard screaming "I DO NOT CONSENT. YOU'RE VIOLATING MY RIGHTS. I AM AN AMERICAN CITIZEN" over and over again when the officer asks to see their ID and the post the video on Youtube.
3: The felon. Usually brought on by their own stupidity, their arrest still lingers in their mind and they are bitter against the police officers who busted them for dealing pills.
4: The person who actually has a right to complain about the police. This kind of person has usually been unfairly treated by the police, usually beaten during a protest or was illegally searched and or detained by police. Accounts for 2% of people who hate the police.
Type 1:
*goes to Youtube video of police officer asking skaters to leave a property that they're not supposed to be on*
"Fuck the police"
Type 2:
*A guy with a video camera filming himself walking around with a assault rifle strapped over his shoulder*
Police officer: Hey bud, what's going on? What's the deal with the rifle?
Martyr: I DO NOT CONSENT. I DO NOT CONSENT.
Police officer: Would you mind if I saw your ID?
Martyr: ILLEGAL TERRY STOP. I DO NOT CONSENT. I DO NOT CONSENT. (What the martyr doesn't realize is that the police officer asked for his ID, and didn't demand it, which does not constitute a Terry stop)
Police officer: Ok sir, have a nice day.
*Martyr goes on Reddit*
Martyr: FUCK THE POLICE. FUCKING PIGS NEED TO ALL FUCKING DIE. SERIOUSLY ALL POLICE OFFICERS ARE LITERALLY HITLER. FUCK THEM. AMIRITE GUISE???
Type 3:
Maynnnneeee I ain't done nuttin. These pigs just don't have nuttin better to do than harass me. They just don't like me
Type 4:
While I was protesting the new bill that passed, a police officer grabbed my hair and threw me to the ground and hit me with his baton 3 or 4 times in the stomach. He cracked one of my ribs, and I am going to file a lawsuit against the department. My friend caught the whole thing on video.
