Easy there, fella. I understand you’re a cop and you’re probably a decent guy too. The sarcasm is good; I got a chuckle out of it - especially the “pagan rituals to the Nazi gods while on a direct line with the Bilderberg group” part. Nice touch.

But unfortunately, historical examples are what they are.

If my statement was over the top to you, you have my apologies. But that doesn’t change the fact of what I said.

If you personally were ordered to go door to door to collect citizens firearms, would you do it (rhetorical question).

If you answer yes, well, then you prove my point. If no, then I’ll call you brother, and have your six anytime you need it.

Think about cops like the assh*le in Canton Ohio who threatened to murder a citizen in cold blood - right there on his own dash cam, and his partner who did nothing to defuse the situation.

That’s what a lot of people see when they think of modern cops.

Again - that’s probably not you. But it only takes one assh*le like that to sour people’s views.

I can pretty much guess what his answer would be to the question I posed.

No. ( and you can chose to believe this or not) The three of us on our squad have made a personal pact, if there is ever a nationalization of police or 'national orders' (for any other reason except say armageddon from china or north korea etc) our PD is deserted and our badges are on the booking room floor. We all have families to protect.

My squad is no stranger to FR and they know I read it often. Whenever I see this crap I bring it up and we discuss it. Every time we've discussed bad cop stories we've all been in agreement that they were a bad cop.

Lurker always wants to know what I am doing to fix this problem. Well I'm no superhero but I make sure I keep up on the law and especially keep up on the bad-cop news stories to keep me on the straight and narrow. Our whole cadre of officers just this year got policy changed at our PD, nothing mindblowing but some stuff got changed for the better with regards to how things are done and it is beneficial to the public.

Unlike Lurker I don't have personal delusions of grandeur with how important I am. It's not going to be what I have necessarily already done to "fix things" it's what I'm willing or NOT willing to do if the proverbial sh*t ever truly hits the fan.
