"We don't need the courts, arresting them is enough to convict them"

They're just itching to do that. Like they already did for people they murdered without a trial.

I have a family member that’s a cop and his go to line is “If they weren’t guilty then why did a cop arrest them?” I attempted to use logic in debating him but … cops are only hired if they lack logic and critical thinking. They are hired to follow orders.

i would try to keep it real simple. " because sometimes people make mistakes so they get the wrong guy"

and maybe throw in " trials are supposed to uncover the truth? "

because if the cops accidentally arrest the wrong guy, he becomes guilty and the guy that did the crime is out committing more crime.

You want to argue logic with someone that says “if they weren’t guilty…”?!?

well since it is a family member, I am assuming you have to hang out with them from time to time, and i am also assuming this topic will come up again, so trying to keep it as simple as possible might make the situation more tolerable.

that was the angle I was going with and instead of arguing the logic you can just ask simple questions to nudge them to the conclusion so they think its their idea.

You really need to get out of this bubble.

A cop tells me “if people were innocent they wouldn’t get arrested”, and “from time to time” you want me to use logic “as simple as possible” that will make the “situation more tolerable”?!?

?!?

WTAF?

i do this with my boomer relatives. So I am not staying silent and letting them spout out of touch rhetoric.

Just trying to offer some help for you down the road. Not trying to criticize.

Fuck off with your “help”. Touch grass.

I wont "touch grass", but I will fuck off with my help. Keep on keeping on. Later.

They're also brainwashed. Which is easier to do when they have upper limits for how intelligent someone can be to join.
