This post is not directed at anyone in particular...that said...lots of you have very strong feelings about LE officers and seem to feel their synister, power hungry morons...
I believe it's one of the MOST difficult jobs ANYONE can do. My best friend's (who's a nurse I went to nursing school with)husband is a cop. He DOES have a four year degree and is retired military. He's a father of 5, and I rode along with him one night.
He took far more abuse that night than anyone COULD EVER dish out!! I saw two men try to jump him & take away his weapon (I almost sh#$ my pants!), I saw several drunks (sluring their words, stumbling when trying to get out of the car) all tell him they had 2 beers (why is it EVERYONE ever stopped anywhere for DUI has had 2 BEERS????) and ALL of them became verybally abusive when he put the cuffs on...one guy SPIT at us the whole way down to the station. SPIT AT US!! I swear, had I been the LE officer, I would have stopped the car, pulled his Best if kept off the board out & beat the hell out of him with my billy club...it would be the LAST time he ever SPIT at anyone again....my friend, just laughed it off...
I saw him ticket 4 parents for not having their children properly restrained..course, many here will say that's far too aggressive and not their business anyway...after doing Peds ICU for nearly 10 years, I can tell you if the parents are too friggin stupid to buckle their kids up, they should let LE SMASH them in the face with a baseball bat, the same way their babies/children's faces were smased in by the dashboard, or mangled bodies have to mend after being thrown from the car.
I've seen I don't know how many times, when someone posts, "someone stole my narcotics"..everyone say's, "you should report it to the police"
LE deserves far more respect than they get...their just like any other group of people, there are a few bad apples in the bunch...just like nurses, just like doctors, just like accountants. etc, etc
I have a hard time disrespecting ANYONE who potentially lays down his life for mine, every time he gets in his car to go to work.
Ok, now I'll get off my soapbox.
