I thought you were going somewhere entirely different after I read the first two. I thought you were about to say you'd prefer 1000 suspects go free rather than see one use of unnecessary force. Even that is at least a bit debatable - the 1000 suspected criminals, you would think, would cause more harm and death than the loss of one life. But that's a moot point, because instead, you jumped to something several degrees more extreme.
There is just no way to read your post without coming to the conclusion that you see the lives of police officers as being of far, far less value than not just the lives of the general public, but the lives of suspected criminals they're seeking to apprehend.
It's interesting because there an awful lot of people attempting to either defend your post or reinterpret it in a manner that is digestible for them, all the while engaging in precisely the opposite exercise with Cali Flames Fan's post. And say what you like about him blaming the victim, he wasn't casually dehumanizing people, as you just did.
Ironically, you might have just served yourself up as the first example in this thread of someone who actually
deserves to get punched in the face by a policeman.
