I have to preface this column with a disclaimer: I dont know if this actually came from a cop or not. Ive seen this shared on Facebook a few times and while I cant verify it was really written by a police officer, the sentiment is accurate, so its worth sharing some of it here with that caveat.
It starts, It's not the police who need to be retrained, it's the public. We have grown into a mouthy, cell phone-wielding, vulgar, uncivil society with no personal responsibility and the attitude of 'it's the other person's fault,' 'you owe me.' A society where children grow up with no boundaries or knowledge or concern for civil society and personal responsibility.
We can argue whether or not police need more training I dont personally view it as a bad idea but the rest is spot on. Its the America liberals have created: a bunch of self-entitled brats used to getting whatever they want and unable to deal with not being coddled.
Weve seen it for a while now, mostly on college campuses but occasionally boiling over off campus into things like Occupy Wall Street. Theyre the unemployed and otherwise unemployable who are angry about the results of the bad choices they made majoring in bisexual polar bear studies or some other worthless field of study that only qualifies you to teach that worthless skill to other suckers dumb enough to major in it, for example and unqualified to do anything.
Their rooms back home are likely covered with participation ribbons, driveways likely filled by the family Prius coated with Im the proud parent of a spectacular student bumper stickers, and fridges overrun with tofu. In other words, these people were created. Bad parenting has consequences.

No. No, they’re not.
They’ve deliberately created a nation of young communists thru years of indoctrination in public schools. We are now seeing the results.
Remember, this is the first generation of "participation trophies" and "self-esteem emphasis."
Commie terrorists have always used spoiled brats as their shock troops. Easy to manipulate them with guilt and self-hatred.
By rejecting Biblical principals, we’ve created a society of false morals, believing that if you point your finger and make someone look bad, you will be good by comparison.
Don’t forget the psychotropic drugging. Remember it’s not just leftists who are addled.
That ship has sailed. It’s now inter-generational.
“We have grown into a mouthy, cell phone-wielding, vulgar, uncivil society with no personal responsibility”
Great article, well said. I also believe that all these punks living on their cell phones, rather than learning actual human interaction, relations, community, and conversation has radically altered their worldview. We have all been dehumanized. We are mere objects standing in the way of endless causes and crisis issues that are ramped up on “social” media. They are all “activists” now. Everyone outside of the current outrage is rapidly becoming expendable. This is not going to end well.
Third-graders they are. Thumbsuckers. Bedwetters. They are scum.
Have created!
I love Derek Hunter’s articles.
Instead of reading the various original conservative opinion pieces I should have read last week or month, I can simply read Derek for the stale regurgitation.
Just saw a snowflake arrested on television, gently padded down and asked if he felt uncomfortable. HA! In my day if you didn’t feel like a pro wrestler after a brutal match after an arrest you didn’t get your tax dollar’s worth. They really are worthless and weak.
It will take decades of one way helicopter rides to fix.
Correction: not ARE making, but HAVE MADE.
Yes, this isn’t new; plenty of pampered brats were protesting in the 60s instead of growing up and getting jobs..
If only conservatives would take back the schools.
I have come across people who feel so entitled. I wonder where they get this from. I suspect school indoctrination.
Leftism only makes sense to the entitled.
