Apparently, for reals, the LAPD was complaining about being hit by rubber bullets fired by the LA Sheriffs Department during the No Kings protests. And earlier, LASD was gassed by the LAPD because LAPD shot before the sheriffs had their gas masks on.

LASD was furious when LAPD copied their "rubber bullet no-look trickshots into protesters faces" TikToks.

It's actually more about having a competent law enforcement system. The manner of American police is arguably on par with, if not indistinguishable from warlord countries in Africa.

Japan and Germany to begin with, I think? Although I don't quite follow how your question relates to my statement.

The LAPD and LASD are a collection of gangs with a commission from the city of LA.
