A teenager who video-recorded his mother’s forceful arrest by Louisiana sheriff’s deputies in 2020 has been awarded $185,000 by a federal jury in a lawsuit filed over one deputy’s attempt to interfere with the recording.
Even more than pretty much every time a cop anywhere in the country seriously fucks up? Or have you heard a lot about cases where cops are open about some wrongdoing they were responsible for lately?
“More coverups” does not equal “police state.” They can’t cover up more than they’re already trying to cover up because, again, they try to cover it up every single time.
There are different levels of trying. Any criminal tries to cover up their crimes, some go to more extreme measures than others. For example, when you raise the penalty for rape to the death penalty, more rapes turn into murders.
Im not saying that you shouldnt punish police violence harder, I just think that there is always more cover up possible. The fact that people are even allowed to talk about this, shows that more Cover up is possible.

Yes, even more than before. C’mon. I’m out.
It is difficult when ‘even more’ isn’t possible.
It is. Try sueing the police in coutries that incentivize coverups more, like Iran. You’ll just disappear.

If that’s what you’re saying, then trying to suggest that fining the police union will turn America into Iran is not the way to do it.
And i did not do that. I was replying to your claim, that “more cover up cant be possible”
Your words.
