    And I see people complain about my local police department’s policy of not chasing cars. This shit is why. It’s not worth you maybe dying so that the pigs can maybe catch a criminal.

    Cops should only chase people in cars when they are an imminent threat to others, and in proportion to the threat.

    If they just shot up an elementary school, then have at it, pursue until capture. Armed robbery where nobody was hurt, pursue if safe, stop when risking innocent lives.
