Cut to dozens of tweakers lined up out the door of the Marin sheriff’s station.

Considering how well the free tv scam works for bringing in wayward perps it wouldn’t surprise me to see this one work too.

I have no doubt that there are addicts dumb enough to fall for this. Unfortunately, though, they likely would not be the ones that the drugs belonged to in the first place and it would just be more imprisoning desperate drug users without changing any of the conditions that produced them

It’s like they tried to make a light joke but still ended up being shitty. So many cops just can’t be not shitty.

“Perps”. “Tweakers”.

Perhaps parroting the dehumanising language of the cops is not the best way to respond to a system of brutal and murderous policing?
