Keeping things in perspective, “policeman” is not even in the Top Ten of dangerous occupations in this country.
Sad but true. Whenever I’m in a fast food place and there’s either a cop or a service member there, I pay for their food.
As the father of a former federal police officer, I know what this man has written. I was fortunate. My son was never injured during his service time. Nor was he wounded during his time fighting in Iraq.
However, our so-called president (more like a Marxist authoritarian) and his people don’t give a shit about dead cops or Medal of Honor winners unless there is a photo-op in it for them (and I can count at least 4 MOH winners among my friends and acquaintances).
The President, the mayor of Baltimore, the States’ Attorney General for Baltimore, the leaders of Ferguson, Missouri, our college presidents and other administrative leaders, the Democrat Party, Marxist nuts like Bernie Sanders, former Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D-Ga), illegal immigration promoters Sec. of Commerce Tom Perez and Rep. Luis Guttierrez, and those in California who will not execute their murderers of too many Katie Steinlees (or support Kate’s Law), or the Marxist nutcake mayor of New York and his Marxist-led City Council, or the thug/crook Gov. of New York and his environmental wacko AG, give a damn about dead cops or firemen/women.
If they did, they wouldn’t say and do what they have done to spit on them, live or dead.
If there is one saving grace in their disgraceful mental illnesses, it is that more Americans are waking up to their Second Amendment rights and are buying guns to protect themselves when the cops can’t arrive in time, or in the case of the “dead cop” writer, they just won’t come at all.
In the end, it all comes to the following:
In a criminal or medical emergency, who do you trust - A Democrat politician or a policeman, EMT or doctor/nurse?
If the answer is a Democrat politician (not all Democrats are crazy bastards, just their leaders/toadies), then write your Will now because your family is going to need it after they bury you.
And they really appreciate it. Most people have no idea how much responsibility their job entails and how much training they have to go through to earn as low a wage as they do. The only real perk is having a badge and a being able to carry a gun which is no longer a big deal. The threat of lawsuits is almost scarier than being shot at...lol
“Maybe Obama should give this a good read as well. He might actually support our police instead of constantly tearing them down.”
No way. The guy has no conscience. Not a clue of right, or wrong. Just what’s convenient for him.
Today I will not call a cop because yesterday I did and he shot my dog.
They are #6 in the bureau of labor, truck drivers are #1 and farmers #2.
“I can count at least 4 MOH winners among my friends and acquaintances”.
No offense meant, but they are not MOH winners. They are awarded it, and if you ask them, they didn’t win it.
The rest I agree with.
/Disclaimer, I know no Medal Of Honor awardees, just have read a lot about them. And from them.
Oops 1995.
“Keeping things in perspective, “policeman” is not even in the Top Ten of dangerous occupations in this country.”
-
That was not implied but the other dangerous occupations don’t have people spitting at them and marching in the street chanting about killing them

Very nice RevMom - thanks for posting..
At least he will not shoot a homeowner believing the no knock raid is a regular thug home invasion.
At least he will not shoot someones dog for merely barking at him and making him feel threatened.
At least he will not shoot someone for lipping off to him as a female cop recently did to a homeless person.
At least he will not shoot someone and is dashcam video somehow just happens to be erased during this time.
At least he will not shoot an unarmed person and plant a NOLA ham sandwich on them.
For all the bitcing he no one forced im against his will to be a cop. I think there ought to be a point where once they jit a certain level of cynicism and jadedness, they move to either off the street work or retire. Id offer counseling ut most would not take it. It would cut down on the alcoholism and rage related anger incidents.
This from someone who grew up in a cop family. I know what 20 years does to a street cop. I have sympathy but they cant take it out on regular people, and by then they are so jaded they view everyone cynically and unless you are also a cop, you’re not as good a person. Their cynicism is thst you just havent screwed up and gotten caught yet.
They do if they don’t join the unions.
I wonder to what degree those stats are made better by the number of paper pushers and “I visit schools to warn kids about drugs” hires who don’t actually go out on the streets.
We’ve done that, too.
When Americans come to understand that Ophonybama and his LIEberal Comrades in arms do not care about them, America will begin to heal the many wounds that have been inflicted on them by the Ophonybama criminals!!
