    I’m not sure he was joking, though. That attitude is definitely not limited to him - there’s a pretty pervasive sentiment among cops and bootlickers that some people are worth more than others. Denver just announced they fired 3 cops for saying they were going to use migrant shelters as target practice. Yeah they were “joking” just like Auderer was “joking”, but it’s pretty clear that the underlying feeling isn’t really a joke to them.
