[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't read 120 posts in this thread but I find the hole premise of the thread hilarious because it begs the question that any police force anywhere has ever hired "quality candidates." Might the recruits get even worse? Perhaps. But they were never "quality."[/quote]
What's your expertise that informs that opinion?[/quote]Reality.[/quote]

To suggest that no police force anywhere hires quality candidates is a reflection of your personal negativity rather than reality. [/quote]

I find it deeply depressing that you are judging my law enforcement husband. You don’t know his background, his reasons for choosing this career, his qualifications, his moral compass, his awards, his success as a training officer, or... frankly... anything at all about him. You still think he can’t possibly be “quality.” Fortunately for all of us, he doesn’t see the worst in mankind and he’ll continue doing the honorable job he’s done for many years. [/quote]
PP here. I think you meant to respond to the post prior to mine. I agree with you. I know many quality policemen, appreciate what they do, and think They have an incredibly dangerous and underappreciated job.[/quote]

You’re correct. I was replying to the post before yours. Thank you for your comments. My husband handles the anti-police rhetoric better than I do. I tend to get defensive.[/quote]

DP.  I know it's hard to do but ignore the first poster on this message.  She is definitely in the minority in terms of her opinion of law enforcement.  Unfortunately, that minority has become very vocal.  
The vast majority of us truly appreciate the job that police officers do and have a great deal of respect for them.  It is a thankless job that requires patience and and endless supply of self-control.  Most people who post here would never even qualify for the job!
