It means he's glad the dead person wasn't someone he'd have liked to fuck.

Because he's a monster.

And because he was a police officer, his aforementioned green light age would probably be 16 or younger.

Why would you say something so gross yet unarguably true

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Because I've known a good amount of police--enough to know that's the cold truth of the matter. I also have such a strong conviction against them I can't let it be unsaid.

In fact, here's another fun one: in my city, there's an annual cops vs. firefighters boxing match for charity in an arena. Now, the cop my family used to be friends with brought our attention to an entire section, and told us that was the mistress section for the police. There were hundreds of women in that single section. About a year later, he would leave his wife and daughters for his mistress, whom we had no knowledge of. We stopped being friends.

Man... I grew up on fictional tales about morally grey complex villains with redeeming qualities that left me entirely unprepared for the reality of these irredeemably evil bastards running our society.

I can understand that completely. I grew up with very similar stories.

Like, in theory I know some good cops are out there, but in practice I've known 5 pretty well in my relatively short time, and they've all been abusers and most have been cheaters. Disheartening for sure, but the best thing we can do is keep them honest and demand justice.
