Conflating police brutality with war crimes is but beyond hyperbolic.

No, I don’t see police forces raping and pillaging, no I don’t see police forces killing civilians at random day in and day out, no I don’t see police killing babies every day, no I don’t see police bombing entire cities out of existence, no I don’t see police forces executing innocent civilians on a daily basis, no I don’t see police death camps.

This is the same as calling rape when a guy touches a woman’s arm.

Officer pulled over woman, then raped her, Texas officials say. ‘Predator with a badge’

In the middle of the night on Nov. 16, 2019, Ruiz was working as an officer for the Arcola Police Department and pulled over a 23-year-old woman, prosecutors said. At one point during the traffic stop, he told the woman to “convince” him not to take her to jail, according to officials.

Ruiz took the woman’s driver’s license and told her to follow him. The woman tried to drive away, but Ruiz pulled her over again, prosecutors said. Officials said Ruiz then took her to a construction area, made her drink alcohol and sexually assaulted her.
