Tell me again how brave these over-gunned, over-protected, under-brained, under-supervised people are again. I keep forgetting.<br /><br />Especially since I spent more than fifty years working in occupations far more dangerous than being a cop. We didn't get to whine and cry on camera when some of us died, nor did we take off work and travel across the country to show "solidarity", while wearing a black arm band. We continued to do the work. We knew the dangers when we took the job. We were men enough to act like men.<br /><br />We didn't get one damn law passed that put us at an advantage over the average law-abiding citizen. That was just exactly as it should be. <br /><br />Send these girly men home. I would rather have no police at all, as to have police with Special Advantages over their fellow citizens. In fact, we shouldn't need to send them home. They should get in touch with their inner sensitivity and quit on their own. They know they need special consideration, and we know that a free society shouldn't grant it. <br /><br />Anti-cop, nope! Anti-crybaby and anti-criminal, unfortunately that seems to be the two categories of people who mostly fill the ranks of law enforcement today. And of course their enablers, who elect people willing to play the game to gain more control over the peaceful. That's right, the only people they control are the peaceful non-criminal. They rest they must cage when they aren't too busy controlling the peaceful non-criminal.straightarrownoreply@blogger.com
