Today, I stopped caring about my fellow man. I stopped caring about my community, my neighbors, and those I serve. I stopped caring today because a once noble profession has become despised, hated, distrusted, and mostly unwanted.
I stopped caring today because parents refuse to teach their kids right from wrong and blame us when they are caught breaking the law. I stopped caring today because parents tell their little kids to be good or “the police will take you away” embedding a fear from year one. Moms hate us in their schools because we frighten them and remind them of the evil that lurks in the world.
They would rather we stay unseen, but close by if needed, but readily available to “fix their kid.” I stopped caring today because we work to keep our streets safe from mayhem in the form of reckless, drunk, high, or speeding drivers, only to be hated for it, yet hated even more because we didn’t catch the drunk before he killed someone they may know.
Nevertheless, we are just another tool used by government to generate “revenue.” I stopped caring today because Liberals hate the police as we carry guns, scare kids, and take away their drugs. We always kill innocent people with unjust violence. We are called bullies for using a Taser during a fight, but are condemned further for not first tasing the guy who pulls a gun on us.
And if we do have to shoot, we are asked “why didn’t you just shoot the gun out of their hand?” And when one of us is killed by the countless attacks that do happen (but are rarely reported in the mainstream media) the haters say, “Its just part of the job.” I stopped caring today because Conservatives hate us as we are “the Government.” We try to take away their guns, freedoms, and liberty at every turn.
We represent a “Police State” where “jackbooted badge-wearing thugs” randomly attack innocent people without cause or concern for constitutional rights. We are Waco, Ruby Ridge, and Rodney King all rolled into one lone police officer stopping to help change an old lady’s tire. I stopped caring today as no one wants us around, but instantly demands answers, results, arrests, when a crime takes place.
If a crime isn’t solved within the allocated 60 minutes it takes CSI on television, we are inept, incompetent, or covering something up. If we do get “lucky” it was just that and everyone with a Facebook account can post wonderful comments of how “they” would solve the case and how “we” are not nearly as clever.
I stopped caring today because a video of a cop six states away, from a department that you never heard of, screws up and forgets his oath of honor, thus firing up an internet lynch-mob of cop haters even though 99% of us work twice as hard not to end up in the news and to still be “the good guys.” We are “militarized” because we wear body armor and kevlar helmets when shots are fired or rocks thrown at us and carry scary looking rifles even though everyone knows that they are easier to shoot and are more accurate than a handgun or a shotgun.
I stopped caring today because the culture of today’s instantly connected youth is only there to take and never give back. To never accept responsibility for ones actions, but to blame everyone else instead of themselves. To ask “what is in it for me?” versus “what can I do for you?”
To idolize gangsters, thugs, sexually promiscuous behavior, and criminals over hard work, dedication, and achievement. To argue that getting stoned should be a right, yet getting a job or an education is a hassle. To steal versus earn. To hate versus help. Yes, I stopped caring today. But tomorrow, I will put my uniform back on and I will care again.
How does customer service representative rank in terms of dangerous jobs?
Oh, the agony!! Imagine! How dare he?! Doesn't he know who you ARE??
So, it’s OK for the police to simply pull you over and demand that you account for your whereabouts?
Really? You think that is OK?
Who made this puffed up punk anybody I should give a crap about. Stay out of my business and stay away from me.
He stopped caring, he needs a new job
I was thinking along the same lines until I got to the last sentence.
I suppose we could hope that “puffed up punk” feels the same way about you when you shoot your puffed up mouth off in front of a judge.
Officer Barbrady? Is that you? Self important jackboot.
Sounds like you’ve already made an acquaintance with the law. Where do we send the soap on a rope?
I have successfully avoided contact with all jackboot subtards. Do you often engage others with homoerotic fantasies. That's a creepy jackboot thing to do.
I apologize. I did not realize Officer Barbrady was a fantasy of yours.
Absolutely he does. I'm printing this one off and showing it to my oldest son, who just so happens to want a career in law enforcement and was accepted to Western Illinois University's Honor's LEO Program.
I'll do damn' near anything for him to change his mind ....
At 2am? Yes, actually, I want them scrutinizing everyone who turns down my street at 2am. Anyone out around my house at 2am, I want a flashlight in their face.
Kills me to say it but that's funny.
That’s a very hostile comment for you to make to a fellow freeper.
There are too many comments like that on this site.
I should have pinged you Vermont Lt
I am glad I don’t live near you.
Follow me? Sure. Stopping me to get in my business? No thanks.
The assumption of a crime is not how this is supposed to work. And it isn’t the “ if you have nothing to hide its not a problem” bullshit.
Amerika is a Republic in name only. We ceased being a Republic with the passage into law of the euphemistically named ‘federal reserve’ to whom we the scammed people owe because our lying elected representatives borrow every penny from that private banking oligarchy indenturing every man woman and child in America, while patriating illegals to add to the debt load so we the people can never get out of the debt sewer. America had a pretty good run, but in the end the evil oligarchy owns US all unto the next three generations.
That is the sad truth.
bkmk for later read.
“We are well on our way to anarchy...”
That is the goal of the communist race-baiters running these demonstrations.
