And seriously, how can law enforcement give us the whole guilt trip about not liking them? Here in Kennesaw, last year if I recall, just under 10% of the city budget was from traffic tickets and fines. The street I live in has three schools--and is one long buffet of traffic tickets during the school year. About 2/3 of the time I drive through at school zone time, I see some poor sap getting it.
Cops seriously think that makes people appreciate them??
again no disrespect intended with that post honestly, its just the way i see thingsChuckle,
Thats your opinion, I respect that and youre entitled to it. But, I cant ever think of a time when myself or any other officers were called to a scene and it was a good thing (from your other post). As far as being a soldier goes, thanks....I am a former Marine and now a soldier and I was out 10 years before I went back in. So, its kinda like the old story; A guy pulls out a gun on another man, the other man looks at him and says.......heck theres more than one gun in the world and pulls out two. That being said, you are not the only one brother.

only time ill ever really need a cops help is when for them to drag my corpse off the street after i lost in a gun fight. to be perfectly frank, we need law enforcement, thats cool. i respect the police as i respect any other human being (on merit). so they can do what they do.........the hell away from me. cops make me uneasy and i dont like being around them because a good number (not even the majority, but enough for me to be wary of them) have this macho cowboy attitude. ive never been arrested, and i dont plan on it (why i stay out of their way)
to put it simply, every time a cop has ever been involved with my life something bad has happened (not saying they caused it, but they were there)
i personally have never had a cop help me, the most any of them have ever done for me was take a report for stolen property.
the main reason cops are around is because being a vigilante will get someone 15 to life, and they are needed......but it doesnt mean i have to like them (alot like taxes)
for all law enforcement out there. you are just citizens employed by the states. i understand you have to do deal with the scum of society on a daily basis, but thats what you signed up AND GET PAID FOR. i and everyone else dont owe you a thing for doing what you get paid to do (thats the attitude most folks who have a problem with LEO's have i figure)
lieing is cool, honestly its fine with me. if someone is stupid enough to trust you guys thats on them. and im glad you get those stupid criminals off the streets. but dont sit there with a straight face and tell me that hassling people and arresting folks and ticketing people for a bit of pot, or a minor traffic infraction, or serving a warrant because someone missed jury duty is protecting anyone or anything other than the interests of the government
to protect the government and serve warrants
and if you dont like my opinion, sorry, its mine and its based on what i see on a day to day basis. so, ill say it again. i dont have a problem with cops honestly, i have a problem with the system, and when a cop is just "doing their job" they might as well be a robot representing a faceless and often unelected bureaucratic system i and lots of other people seem to get reamed out by all the time
all im gonna say on this matter anymore. so the next time you think that im going to call you because i want to, i do it because i have to as a law abiding citizen.
Aint no biggie..........at least youre honest. Thats what is great about this country (at times) we can say what we want and speak our mind. Besides, this is the internet.............I aint going to get all butt hurt over some post.
we have a lady police officer in our sunday school class and today she said one of the tricks they do to people is after they are done looking up someones license they will say ok have a good day and start to walk away then say to the person can i search your car for child porn we have found a lot of it in this area and i just need to check and make sure you don,t have any, is it ok for me to search your car for it? then she said most people don,t think nothing of it and say yes, then they search and find a pound of pot or something and make a bust. she said it was one of the tricks they do. i thought trick my foot that is a bald face LIE, i was shocked to hear this from someone that is suppose to know that lying is a sin.
