Oh one other thing, you get paid very well for driving around in a new car, drinking free coffee, ogling young boys and girls, beating up first graders, killing dogs and attacking anyone who looks at you as less than a god.
Sounds to me as if you have picked your side, unfortunately we can’t tell by looking which are like you and which are honest God fearing honest servants of the public.
“So you’re a cop, a protector of the ruling political class and the donor class, I on the other hand only work, pay a ton of taxes, and pay for your gas so that you can maybe if you’re really lucky come out here and shot my dog.”
-I pay taxes. Just like you. I work. Just like you. You got me on the gas, but I have to get from A to B. If it makes you feel better, I have to take my personal car to Atlanta with some regularity and I don’t get reimbursed.
-I have never shot a dog. I keep dog treats in the car. Most dogs that see me coming get super excited. I wouldn’t shoot your dog either.
“You and your fellows in blue have brought this on yourselves.”
-You and I will have to disagree on that. I and my co-workers have not brought “being ambushed and killed in the street for trying to do our job(s)” on ourselves. You would have to have a pretty twisted mind to make the connection that an officer in, say, California who crosses the line means that I deserve to get murdered at work.
“I want to see every action he and his family have ever had with ‘Law Enforcement’.”
-Mine have all been positive. However, my wife had a horrible episode about 12 years ago with an officer in Dekalb Co., GA. I blame the officer - not every officer who followed thereafter.
“Oh one other thing, you get paid very well for driving around in a new car, drinking free coffee, ogling young boys and girls, beating up first graders, killing dogs and attacking anyone who looks at you as less than a god.”
-I make $32k. That is less than I made in an office job in 2001. Like I wrote before, I do what I do because I like it and that I can help make my community a better place.
-My car has 90k miles on it and is held together with hope and force of will.
-I don’t drink coffee outside of some days in the winter.
-Do cops in your town sit around and ogle young boys and girls? I would call that in, man.
-To date, my abuse of first graders remains a steady, zero instances.
-No dogs killed by me.
-Not one person, aside from a 3 year old, has ever even come close to looking at me like a God. In fact, most people won’t look at me at all. They look away, or snear, or say weird stuff like you’ve written yourself.
“Sounds to me as if you have picked your side, unfortunately we can’t tell by looking which are like you and which are honest God fearing honest servants of the public.”
-I quit an office job and took a pay cut (make less than I did 16 years ago) to make my community better because we have a serious crime and gang problem here that I decided I didn’t want to watch on the sidelines. I won’t apologize for it. You should get to know more officers.
-What do you do for your community?
