Cop City is one of the worst ideas to come out of the police industrial complex for a long time. It’s the template for a police state, fostering separation between police and the communities they’re here to serve. It’s the last thing we need now. theguardian.com/us-news/2023…

It's just a training center. You may dislike the price but the issues with cops have to do with policy, behavior and training, having a new training center has nothing to do with that.

Divided along racial lines? ... The young guy that was shot 50 plus times was ... WHITE!

The last thing we want is a state of the art training facility for police officers. They need to be trained badly so they can't do their job properly.
Replying to @marwilliamson
Police are notoriously under-trained and that is a big reason why we have problems with them. A large training facility for them they’re calling “Cop City” sounds like an excellent idea to me.
Replying to @marwilliamson
People keep calling it a Cop City but it is also going to be the Fire Department training center.

Then call it what it is… Pig City 🐷

Most police stopped serving, now it's about power and oppression.
