Directly after the protests in Hamburg the police reported, in a dramatic tone, that 476 police officers had been wounded by the violence in the city.
Turns out 95% was back on duty almost immediately after brief treatment for self-inflicted teargas, bruises, headache, stress, tripping over, etc.
Of 476 ‘wounded’, 21 missed a day of work or more.
Seeing how often we see this sort of reporting after protests it might be time to start saying ACAC (all cops are crybabies)
^^^^
On the other hand, many protesters had severe injuries, incl one person in a coma.
And guess what got incredibly underreported? Activist injuries!
If a cop was in a coma we’d have 5 documentaries about him by now and 10 petitions to reintroduce the death penalty for left wing activists.
Also about 130 were wounded by their own pepperspray.
