There is no situation in God’s Green Earth, that the presence of a police officer will not make worse.

Isolated incident... feared for his life.... gotta get home at the end of that shift... one bad apple.... you just don’t understand what it’s like to be a cop....

Did I cover them all?

Someone posted here not long ago about how local beat cops would stop and check in on local businesses. That was my experience as a teenager when I'd work alone some nights. But they wore the old-fashioned garb of a local cop and weren't dressed like paramilitary soldiers. I guess they were the "Officer Friendlys" that don't seem to exist anymore. Most of the police I've met in recent years (not all) seem so arrogant and angry.

Good ‘ol Wichita Jack Boots. Just had to kill something!

Let’s be open minded here, Laz. There are some scenarios in which the police provide needed service. Euthanizing family pets for instance.

ain’t it the truth...

That is very true. You never know if you will get a good, smart cop or a moron that just wants to shoot the dog.

Jesus, here we go again. One outrage after another. My two little dogs “charge” whoever comes in because their tails are wagging so fast and they want to greet, lick, and be petted by the visitor. What kind of retrograde homicidal animal and people haters are the cops hiring?

Tell that to the young lady I talked out of killing herself the other day...

[wgmalabama]

Boot lickers won’t even comment on this thread.

True, especially in dealing with a domestic altercation.

Female police officer would have killed everyone in the room and then blamed the gun.
