- Source? I can not find anything that says Crowder was even aware of Hale on March 27, 2023 (Day of shooting) and the earliest mentions of the writing’s release are November 6, 2023.
Ah yes the ultimate punishment: don't have to work, and you get paid.
- You realize police unions are nothing like other unions, right? Because their employees effectively get carte blanche to kill.
  Don't make false equivalences. That does not a good argument make.
  
  If they have to be licensed, there's not a thing the unions can do. When a cop causes harm, they lose their license, like a hundred other professions. No license, no employment. Go cry, union.
  
  On paper it makes sense. In practice it's a way for them to act like something was done when in reality they're given a paid vacation.
  The largest part of the problem is how loyal they are to each other. If a teacher gets fired for misconduct, it's exponentially harder to get another job as a teacher. Even if it's in an entirely different state... Where a cop can go to the next precinct and get a desk job without much hassle.
