You dont know what your talking about. These guys are complaining because they arent even allowed to run hot to calls unless a violent crime has happened. Its common for fire a police to run red lights with lights and sirens or slow down at the light turn on top lights and run through. If they stop at every light it increases response time by 10-15 minutes. People get pissed, criminals get away.

We have a device on our truck that turns light signals from green to yellow to red before we get there. Sometimes they fail or sometimes citizens run them and smash the cars and trucks and say it our fault.

After midnite the traffic is minimal. People get tired of hearing sirens screaming by at 2:00a so we go lights only on large streets. Cops do that too.

Its not these guys are blasting through an intersection without looking or slowing down, they dont want to die.

Chief Kunkle has hog tied them so much in so many ways they cant do the job the best they can and they are fighting back.

Nucsubs lives in the armpit of America and thinks all cops are like New Jersey cops. Evidently knowing four cops gives one the right to declare himself an expert on the other 2 friggin million.

Hit a nerve did I?

I known exactly what I am talking about. If you could read, you would see I mentioned I know twelve cops and specified the abuse of six. Its not these guys are blasting through an intersection without looking or slowing down, they don't want to die.

Ya, actually, they are. They're killing civilians in NJ on a regular basis.

I specified I lived in NJ...that cannot account for all of the abuse. But have it your way. All NJ cops are power abusing maniacs then.

How many Muslims or illegals or gays or any other group that YOU might generalize about must you know before your generalizations are fair? I never said all 12 million cops in America were corrupt. I said that power abuse is rampant in my experience. Not all Muslims are terrorists either.

People who chose to become police officers, like many other professions, have a certain personality profile. That means they share many of the same skills and flaws.
