You say he was lying, I say he was bluffing. Poker players bluff all the time.
"Cops lie routinely."
No they don't.
"They’re allowed to lie."
There are situations in which cops can lie. One such situation is in an interview when a suspect thinks he has gotten away with a crime. A bluff "lie" has tripped up many suspects who really WOULD have gotten away with a crime.
"They’re encouraged to lie."
Al Sharpton, is that you?
"They’re rewarded for lying."
Poker players get rewarded for lying. I have seen officers fired for lying.
Nice list of nonsense. I congratulate your LIV stereotyping.
“You say he was lying, I say he was bluffing. Poker players bluff all the time.”
They weren’t playing poker. You rationalize just like a liberal. The ends justify the means. Right Barak?
