Why would you want the cops to be overly aggressive to someone who, even in your hypothetical, hasn't committed a crime? Do you foresee any consequences that might arise from encouraging this behavior from cops towards the most powerless struggling members of our community?


In this case, I left out the part where said vagrant had broken into the parking structure and caused several thousands of dollars worth of damage to infrastructure that we had to pay to repair.

There's also the matter of the broken glass bottles he left in the stairwell, which created health and safety risks to everyone using the parking structure.

And there's also the distinct possibility he was the focker who broke into a bunch of cars over the holidays trying to find things to steal.


Yes, irrelevant details that slipped your mind, and which you most certainly did not just make up to justify your bloodlust. How was a dude who can't even afford to drink indoors able to do infrastructural damage to a parking garage? Did he bring his jackhammer?
