How Cops Talk About Mundanes When They Think Nobody Else Is Listening

A few months ago, Austin Police Chief Art Acevdo responded to complaints about the abuse of a female jogger by his minions by saying, in effect: Hey, she should be grateful that she wasn’t raped: “In some cities, cops are actually committing sexual assaults on duty.”

In Austin, some on-duty cops are content to make jokes about rape victims that express unalloyed contempt for people who cling to the durable but demonstrably false belief that police exist to serve and protect the public:

From the description provided with the video at YouTube:
Two Austin PD officers yucking it up about what bad asses they are while investigating a fender bender collision, until the appearance of an attractive female. One officer then blows his whistle at the female and says to his fellow officer, "Go ahead. Call the cops. They can't unrape you."
 
I'm 50/50 on whether this should be taken as an actual threat and dealt with accordingly. Green is right. They are scumbags at the highest level, and they have all the power of the State behind them. Which is the real problem.

This is literally one of those things where the difference between "meh" and "I won't say it because it would be taken as a threat" is the badge...
