How's that surprising? As kids grow up they usually stop graffiti "art" and stop with edgy opinions on the society that surrounds them
Think the last comment might have been a sarcastic joke
You never know with these. Parodyhorizon was reached years ago
Anti-law enforcement sentiment has ceased being edgy since 2014 and the Ferguson Riots, which showed the world that police sometimes behave like undisciplined drunken desperadoes with military hardware.
Since then, we've had a steady stream of video from smartphones showing police routinely abuse their access to force... and are allowed to harm or kill with impunity.
The world is larger than the US
The status quo is not sufficient for liberation.
Police are class traitors who brutalize and oppress us. They're extracted from our communities to protect the interests of capital and private property.
The fascist pigs are a tool of the state. It maintains its power through a monopoly on violence!
Like I said earlier, it's tough to know whether comments like these are for real or parody.
