Good point. I think 99.99% of us here are for the concept of police, but what they have become is something that is pretty un-American.
I think where we went wrong was the war on drugs.

I think their mindset is that they will enforce any law that is passed no matter if it’s legal or not. Our own police chief said that the majority of the people put those politicians in power to create those laws so it is the will of the people.

I personally have a good friend that was a cop for 17 years. Some of the stories that he tells me is downright terrifying.

We’re in a bad place in this country and it’s just a matter of time before the shooting starts. But even Iraq and Mexico have people willing to sign up to be police. Should be interesting to see what happens here.

And that is it, I have three in my family and many friends who are officers. And until you hear these accounts that come from behind that blueline you really do not know how crazy and crooked it really can be.

There really is a very high number of rotten pickles in that barrel.
