MARINA starts a Twitter mess: "you have to be mentally ill to be a cop"

[gagaschickens 4]

I adore her, but gurl, this is not it. Not all cops are bad, I personally know people who are policemen and great at their jobs.

No need to drag mental illness into this

I understands where this though comes from... Completely. Is there like something we seek and desire that is above all that when we choose our career ? 

I even wondered like : are soldiers not suicidal people in disguise (because they all know they could like just die to protect lives. They are trained to give their life to save to most people) (my brother is a soldier)? This is extreme, this is just a question. 

What about people seeking fame though ? Not better at all if I may.

All I say is I understand why she could think that in a moment of anger... Not that her post was clever (at all. her and Lana are doing the Azealia Banks way those days)

[Daylight Jokers 14,958]

I'm just surprised, cuz she's such a well-spoken person...and then she says this.

Okay, but have you considered that THAT DOES NOT WORK. WE DON'T LIVE IN CHROMATICA WHERE THINGS LIKE THIS CAN BE SOLVED WITH KINDNESS. WE LIVE ON EARTH. 

It took them almost three days of riots to arrest that cop EVEN WITH VIDEO EVIDENCE. Do you really think they won't turn their back as soon as y'all go "okay now we be kind"? 

THANK YOU. These privileged members are CLUELESS.

Haha look at all the cop defenders. Was gonna use the term BookLeaker but don’t want WPs lol. You people know what she means. Stop going all pedantic over her “bUt tHeRe ArE gOoD cOpS” cuz you sound just like the “aLL LiVeS mAtTeR” crowd. 

If there is a fight against police brutality and you are willing to stand with the very force people are fighting against, not just compromising but actively suppressing their voice, then you’re trash - and that is every single “riot cop” standing in line right now. Pure unadulterated trash. 

yes! thank you!

Girl, you obviously have not seen the venezuelan police and the venezuelan army repressing the riots against the dictatorship. Not trying to diminish the protest on the USA, which are obviously fair... but I'm not surprised at all  because I've lived this. Hope a change happens!!

[MJHolland 12,725]

Good for her. Maybe hyperbole but let us never forget that cops and white supremacy started all of this unrest.

I love you Marina, but no, this is NOT what needs to be said  There are so many fantastic cops who risk their lives for people every day. This is a very dangerous thing to say, especially during this time.

This...I really don't want to be a good cop in the US right now...being forced to control the riots with people really hating your guts...There are always good and bad people and there are good cops that make sure we can walk outside safely.

[Bloody 64,631]

i love marina but that's very ignorant to say..this doesn't apply to all the cops

[Rosalina 612]

She’s an absolute joke. Love her music, but she’s becoming insufferable. Ok Marina, we’ll just abolish the police, just don’t complain when a time comes when you need them.

[Galvon 1,868]

Damn... Not a very bright moment for Ms. Diamandis.

Why post this tweet? I get that you think it for a moment out of anger, but you don't have to post it.

I've been a fan of her for years and she normally is so wellspoken and inteligent, so this is a surprise to me. I hope she was just really angry and really drunk at this moment.

[Giorno Giovanna 3,178]

This is the same problematic behaviour racist people show. They don't differentiate. 

There are bad cops, yes, but there are also good cops. 

Like racists have a bad experience with one black person, and immediately assume every black person might be bad or something. 

 

Gurl Marina, I expected better from you. (And I say this even though I agree that police brutality in US is insane) 

[JustHMLover2 706]

She aint wrong
