i think cops are getting a bum rap.
are there some cops who shouldn’t be cops?
are some over eager?
Unfortunately if you put your kids thru the school system, they will be educated in liberal philosophy.
Education system has always been about indoctrination. Today, it is woke and liberal. Most of those retired now went through a conservative school system and that didn't turn out great either. Apparently, teacher used to be able to apply corporal punishment. Every generation has something to complain about.
some call it reverse discrimination.
whatever you want to refer to as, in your opinion, are white people being unfairly picked on?
it seems acceptable that if you are white you are viewed with disdain.

Little of that type of racism has any real effect on day-to-day life.So giving an inferior candidate your spot at university ...
Promoting an inferior work colleague because of a diversity quota & PR ...
Not hiring someone on the basis of their race ...
You don't think these have any real effect on people's day-to-day life?
The issue with the above statement is that it tries to place the blame on the victim (inferior candidate) of a rigged system. He didn't build the system but it this case the system works to his advantage and he will be foolish not to take it.
If a male colleagues gets more salary and a female employee for doing the same job. Blaming the male employee for benefiting from an unjust system is only trying to shift the blame. The problem is with the employer.
The point of "inferior candidate" is relative. Some of those taking your spot at a University are giving your spot because their parents are loaded. Why blame the inferior candidate taking your place when the system gave it to him?
As they say, "don't hate the player, hate the game"

Ok, got your point

As an institution, I think people expect law and order. They want to be able to, expect to be able to call for help. I think people who are good citizens do care about keeping law and order.
That is funny (good citizens) because it is actually not true. Here is a list of some people who are considered good citizens and they still didn't care about law and order : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_American_federal_politicians_convicted_of_crimes
A professional criminal/thief will still expect law and order so that other criminals do not break into his house and still his belongings. Humans are strange

There is a small, vocal, and very violent minority who are given disproportionate coverage in the media but I don't think they have widespread support in reality.
That is the real problem.
Most people don't care about the police in the way you don't care what happens to your turd after you flush the toilet. You just want the process to work as designed. You only "strongly care" when the turd starts to float upwards.
Someone should be filming like the ARC

The libs will call you “way-cist” just for making this thread.
Funny but also true. That said, is this more a question about guilt by association? If that is the case every race goes through that.
Japan enters the WW?, American Japanese rounded up and put in internment camp. What did they do? "Quilt by Association"
Some people flew a plane into the WTC, all Arabs are guilty by association because they are all terrorist.
Corvid19 aka China Virus, let's beat up random Asians since they are guilty by association.
Some woman named Karen is filmed being racist, yep all white people are "way-cist" and guilty for having less melanin.
Some black people caught doing illegal stuff, all these (insert n-word) are (insert whatever you want)
Those people crossing the southern border, etc...
Now the person who posted the original question probably didn't make the connection that the issue here is not about if white people are "way-cists" but more about the inherent human nature of attributing guilty by association.

Most people don't care much for Cops in the same way they don't care for Politicians.
i overheard mrs eyeslice listening to '2021 governing body update 3' yesterday.
apparently, they have started ditching foreign language groups and congregations as these weren't exactly roping anyone in.
of course there is a positive spin on all this - '4,000 plus elders freed up to serve in local language congregations' and of course there has been immensely positive feedback from various branches about the benefits of this.. i suspect though there will be an awful lot of elders who were serving as king pins in these congregations who are going to have their noses put out by going back to local language congregations where they will barely be used.
I think the GB is trying to reduce fixed cost. Circuit Overseers, Bethelites, Missionaries, etc.
Most of these people are getting older and cost more. When you cull the FL congragations, you automatically reduce the amount of Circuits/KHs which also translate to reducing the number of COs. That will be a big chunk of change to save.
In some part of Central Europe, we just heard that a few congregations where merged and they have about 180 publishers in one congregation and about 160 publishers in another congregation. This means $$$$ for the JW as they can sell execess KHs and get rid of excess COs.
