"You know, when I was a kid, it was the job of the police to make the public feel safe.

When did that turn around?"

When the popo were issued bullet proof vests, 200 rounds of ammo, told that it was "Us vs Them", and given total immunity from prosecution.

Sorry, I just can't generate total support for Democrat thugs. They have brought themselves to moral penury, and being able to see it coming for 40 years is small comfort.

There are a number of problems, all of them intentionally created.

You’ve got departments that don’t want well trained, intelligent candidates. They want snowflakes, they get snowflakes.

The job has gotten so risky, and not just because of the perps, that the kind of people you’d really like to have apply just won’t do it.

Then you’ve got the problem of departments that, for various bad reasons, are running older, more experienced officers, the ones less inclined to blindly follow illegal orders, out so they can be replaced with said snowflakes.

This is all being done deliberately with the goal down the road of federalizing the fuzz.
