I have relatives who are currently leo’s and retired leo’s and have up until recently always given the benefit of the doubt to any situation like this to the police. However, more and more I am forced by events to re-evaluate this policy.
Eventually these and not all leo’s are like this, but what I call punks with a badge are going to push to hard and there is going to be push back just as hard. They are going to stomp on some vet with military experience or just the wrong citizen who won’t file another useless complaint resulting in a slap on the wrist for the officer or possible civil suit. The punks with a badge are going to show up for a late night raid and find themselves ambushed and cut to pieces. It’s coming because the good cops are not weeding out the punks on the force and the us vs. them attitude is worse than ever.
Now I know all leo’s repeat the mantra: I want to go home safely at the end of my shift to my wife and kids and I hope they do. What is the difference between me and them in this regard? Especially if I am in my home with my family? NONE.
No knock raids, kicking down doors in the middle of the night, the militarization of law enforcement which should have NEVER EVER been allowed is getting citizens killed, it’s just a matter of time before the citizens finally say enough and fight back and the result will be a blood bath for all.
bump to that!
Same here but times are changing.
