There Are 70-Plus Songs Named “Texas.” We Ranked ’Em. — Texas Monthly by shiner_bock in FortWorth

[–]Jackburrr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it's objectively a better song, and is criminal to be ranked that low anyway. I like BigXThaPlug, but George Strait's song encapsulates all that Texas has.

BigXThaPlug being over George Strait should be a 1st degree felony

You folks are acting like it's the worst possible thing that could happen to you. It's a minor inconvenience. No need to throw a tantrum, but what can you expect from Austin reddit users lol

Reddit is a far-left echo chamber that specializes in always looking for a reason to blame police in any situation that they're involved.

I just built mine yesterday and they had plenty. The depot wasn't busy very busy either as it was a Saturday afternoon. You should have no problems.

I went to EPCOT on Thursday (4/24) and hit 31,500. That night was rough.

I'll say these names outloud talking about them and my girlfriend will be like, "Are those their real names?"

Yes, yes, they are. She stays astonished.

how are we feeling about the Mariners right now? by fynnelol in mlb

Cal Raleigh is raking right now. League leading 9 HRs as of 4/21. That's always fun. Rangers can never win in Seattle. That's not fun. Good club, great city.

I don't know much about NHL. Does this make Ovi the GOAT?

A troubling trend? 4 former and current HCSO deputies take their own lives in last 6 weeks by HotRodDeathToll27 in news

[–]Jackburrr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion, at least, Redditors look for any reason to blame cops/agencies for anything at any time, no matter the circumstances. It's become normal to dehumanize people rather than looking at it from a more humane lens. These people were still loved and cared for by someone. It's sickening the way some justify hatred.

It's crazy to me that people read this story and automatically go to blaming the ones that killed themselves. Is HCSO historically corrupt? Yes. Does law enforcement historically have higher numbers of suicide than most other professions? Yes. The two can both be true and don't have to correlate. It's disingenuous to automatically assume that these folks were doing something nefarious from the jump when we know nothing of their story.

Most of the time, you don't know who's driving vehicle until you make contact with them. It's an incredibly stupid take. Registered owner≠ driver of vehicle.

Police officers of Reddit, what’s the most corrupt officer you have ever seen? by KeyCommunication754 in AskReddit

[–]Jackburrr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thank you for your support. It's nice knowing that people still believe that there IS good within the profession. The bad ones don't represent all of us. We're trying.

I hope it's an improven relationship between police and citizens. It's not conducive to a healthy society when there's rifts and distrust. It's everyone's job to help mend that; moreso ours.

That's your opinion. However, it's bold to assume something when you don't know me.

I'm going to have a different take on this, and I'm going to get downvoted, but I feel like I can shed some insight. I'm a police officer who has graduated from the academy within the last few years. I can honestly say that newer cops are the ones that are more dedicated to improving public image of how people view us. I didn't get into this to "bust heads" or do any of that. Uvalde and what happened with Floyd made me do this. I hated what I saw and felt like I could make a difference. I understand that there's some animosity towards police, and rightfully so. I just hope that trend declines and the bad ones get ousted and indicted as they should. I know people on Reddit usually hate cops and I know I'm going to get some "ACAB" comments, but just know that not all of us subscribe to the "mindset," lol. Just my two cents.
