I'm suggesting that if a cop is aware of the news reporting and public mood on police brutality he ought to have the common sense not to joke about it.
Not that I would expect what seems to be a stereotypical BLM-hating, police brutality denying ignorant commenter to understand this.
I guess the problem, once again, is the evil media reporting on what people have said and done

When did I deny police brutality? When did I hate on BLM? What am I ignorant of? What 'seems' and what 'is' are two completely different things. Funny you brought up ignorance.

Funny how you didn't quote your answer when saying I misinterpreted it.
Here it is:

Are you suggesting cops aren't aware of things like Black Lives Matter? Or that cops aren't aware of the news coverage of anything that involves a police officer killing a black man and the news media/public blowing it out of propoprtion as if to say police disproportionately kill black people? Cops are people too, and I'm pretty sure they have the ability to read and listen to the news and outcries of the general public! The cop is clearly being sarcastic. Lets put your brain to the test and see if you are able to figure this out.

You sure make it sound like reports are exaggerated, "blown out of proportion".
While you're not denying that police brutality happens, you're stating that it's not as bad as it seems.
You are at the very least, denying the scale of the problem, if not the problem itself, which is a really fine line to walk.
As for the Black Lives Matter part, I didn't realize you were a BLM supporter!
In the context of your comment it seemed like you were implying they were involved in exaggerating the threat of police brutality, which is obviously ignorant nonsense.
I apologize for that and will edit my comment accordingly
