With all the disrespect and baseless smears Law Enforcement has had to endure recently what is your opinion of what is going on?
It was already getting worse back when I was in it. I’ve been out for over thirty years now. So, my current opinion is from the outside colored by my experience on the inside. From what I can see... I would encourage any honest, decent LEO to get out as soon as possible. 1) It doesn’t pay enough. 2) It’s not just about the threat to their life, MORE it’s the threat to their future (lawsuits). 3) It doesn’t make ANY difference! Being in LE is like mowing an ever growing lawn. That’s the “downside”. On the “upside”, I still fondly remember the people I worked with, some of the best people I have EVER known
