I mean, just the quotes alone in this article are horrifying. I had to pick just one for brevity and there’s worse in the piece. And there’s video.

I’m glad to hear (wasn’t aware of this before) that the city will vote next month to replace the police force with a new department of public safety.

“The officers’ own body cams record them taking pot shots at largely peaceful protesters, and celebrating their hits with laughter and fist bumps. Cruising in an unmarked cargo van, one officer imitates Elmer Fudd, Bugs Bunny’s cartoon nemesis, saying: “Be vewy vewy quiet. We’re hunting activists.” A police commander used the same language in a recording captured after midnight: “Tonight it was… ‘We’re goin’ out hunting.’ Just a nice change of tempo,” he said, adding: “Fuck these people!’””
