[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son is a police officer.

He makes a nice salary, even better with OT, his health insurance is fantastic, can retire after 25 years of service, gets plenty of time off.

Yes there’s definitely the risk of danger.  But I’m very proud of him and thankful for all who take on that risk to keep us safer.[/quote]

Thank you and your son. So many idiots on here. So many idiots. [/quote]

I wonder how some of these anti-police people were raised. Was it bad parenting?[/quote]
No, it was watching cops act like bullies.[/quote]

What do you consider bullying? Are these personal interactions or edited videos suggested by your personal anti-police algorithm?

Keep in mind that law enforcement has more than 50,000,000 interactions with citizens every year. That’s a denominator that will essentially render your anecdotal experience statistically insignificant.[/quote]

When I was a DC in the inner-city, 100% of classmates whose father was a cop hated their father because the dad treated the family the same way he treated the public, or at least that's how it was described to me.  No thx.[/quote]

Yeah I babysat for a family whose dad was a cop and he scared me. He clearly scared his own kids too.  Yelled at neighbors all the time for really petty stuff.  I will say that the vast majority of interactions with cops in my life have been fine and respectful, but I always wondered how a guy with clear anger issues could get a position like that.

DH’s parents were involved in the civil rights movement growing up in the Deep South and have always been wary of cops.  Really hard to trust after witnessing the abuses they did.[/quote]
