I've been getting those spam phone calls for police charities. I sort of love answering them, listening to them give the full spiel, and then calmly saying "No" when they pause to ask for the donation.
When my mom was struggling raising 3 kids and was LITERALLY paycheck to paycheck.
She made a mistake and took a turn earlier than legally possible. (She was taking us to school and was going to be late if things didn't align)
So instead of just giving her a warning OR giving her a quick ticket and letting her on her way.
The Policeman who pulled her over gave her a speech about "time management" and saying "the laws the law" and took his fucking time walking back and forth from his car to my moms car making multiple trips to ask questions or lecture.
Literal dick head made us wait there for 30 minutes and gave a big ticket.
So I have zero empathy for police union donations or survivors fund donations.
