I do notice. The the parent said it "never" stopped them - I'm aware of a few. I'm sure not saying the police are perfect (they are not) - but "never"!? That's an absolute that's simply not true. Shit, kids I knew were killed by police (I also knew kids that were killed by other kids). Let's all be for real tho.
Some police have killed some Innocents - and it seems to be getting more frequent - but it's not an always/never thing.
I hope shit like this never happens to anyone you know.
Now, give me more downvotes, I'm still here and have a session tomorrow.
"That's never stopped them before" is a common figure of speech, it doesn't literally mean that they always do it, just that they have in the past. Think of it as similar to how people from the US say "could care less" instead of "couldn't care less".
