swampman posted:Working on a thread, could someone please suggest movies set in USA where a main protagonist is either: an extremely competent cop, or an extremely bumbling cop. Fargo for example shows a "supercop" and, while not the dumbnest of my dumb, I would say the cops in Witness are incompetent
still waiting for swampmans's "shitty cop movie" thread. cop-copro-propaganda
kamelred posted:wtf why did this get bumped
because someone had made a bad thread to discuss making more bad threads, and so i closed that one and pointed them to this already bad thread about bad threads, and then i read this thread (dont) and was reminded to check on swampperson about a bad thread idea on cop movies they were going to write.

Thanks, you mentioning this gave me the exact right term to think of; I've been talking a lot about this with a friend who's falling into religion because of being in a stuck position in life. I know if he improves his material conditions, things will be better, but I haven't been able to articulate a hundred percent just how much those who are urging him to get involved in a world of submission (inner peace) aren't helping him.
