    On Mondays, The Majority Report they had a NYC whistleblower police officer who leaked recordings he made of higher ups admitting to quotas which are illegal.

    Many of these abuses happen because unwritten quotas that officers must maintain or they will be disciplined. They must enforce overbearing laws against minority populations to get their quotas and if they enforce them on white populations then they are written up.

      And yet… NOTHING was done.

      Are you fucking angry enough yet?

      Nah, didn’t think so. Same as it ever was, then. 🤷🏼‍♂️

        I got pulled over for 5km over the limit once in Toronto. The cop was brand new and he even told me that he had to get his quota. 25 dollar fine as well as a victim surcharge fee on top.

        I didn’t even bother fighting it, my time was worth more than the court time wasted with that one.

          Look a little deeper next time. Most areas allow for online refutations, and are far cheaper than in-person disputes by court.

          Don’t just roll over. That’s the first step. ✊🏽

            This was 12 years ago. I had to line up and take a ticket then wait to be called to dispute a parking ticket.
