This might be the stupidest thing I’ve ever fucking heard wtf
First of all, why on earth is the LAPD in Paris? Do you not have French cops? Handle it yourself god damn.
Second, a major international event like the Olympics seems, to me, like a place you would specifically want to disarm the cops, to avoid them murdering someone and shit popping off.
Third, if I was having a major international event like the Olympics I would certainly want to disarm the LAPD one of the most “shoot first ask questions never” police departments on earth.
i've heard of cop exchanges when there are international football competitions, to share info on hooligans. But the LAPD needing to be there for the Olympics? Armed? Like, the french have gendarmes.
Maybe they change their ideals from "shoot all browns" when they are european browns? Or browns rock enough to attend the Olympics? But it's more likey they burn a cross in front of Christian Baptiste's house than do a good job
During a trip last month to France, two members of Los Angeles Police Chief Michel Moore's security detail detained a man on the streets of Marseille who they wrongfully accused of stealing the cellphone of a high-ranking LAPD commander's wife, the Los Angeles Times reported.
Who in the world believes that LAPD officers are so especially competent or uniquely fit for the job that it warrants flying them across america and the atlantic.
This is clearly dumb, but at the same time I have trouble seeing France extraditing cops to then have a review board of other cops decide whether they should have to go to trial and then be declared innocent because Americans love boot and hate foreigners
so i guess the LAPD are like observing to practice before LA olympics on the next cycle? if Paris needed extra cops for some reason i'm sure closer places would oblige
