Thank you Meagan for that story. Sounds like you cleaned up your life since your California days.
A month or so ago when I said what I’m saying today; Free Republic is a cop hating website and I neither deny or defend that fact, I got push back. And same thing today.
One moron just called me a liar. Am I lying that is IS? Or am I lying that it ISN’T?
Apparently she doesn’t know. She has not answered me. But she knows I’m a liar.
Hoo Boy.
I guess I should clarify that I don’t hate people with badges who enforce the law. However, I LOATHE people with badges who BREAK the law and then get away with it because the other people with badges won’t enforce the law when one of their own breaks it.
I ask: Of the police who mistakenly shot up trucks all over Los Angeles during the Dorner affair, how many of them were even suspended without pay for the attempted murder of law abiding citizens? (It’s a trick question).
I also ask: Had they not been cops what would have happened to them for what they did?
And then I ask: Why are they above the law they enforce on others?
It seems that I am not alone in asking these questions on Free Republic and it does not make me a ‘cop hater’ because I point out things that cops really do and I point out the fact that, all too often, other cops do nothing when confronted by the presence of criminals in their ranks.
I love liberty and I hate all of the enemies of liberty.
I value my liberty because I’ve been deprived of it more times than I can count.
I also fear for my children if they ever have to deal with the militarized police that seem to be dominating the police departments of this nation.
What else to say but I support FR because FR supports liberty. If cops support liberty then I expect FR to support cops. If some cops oppose liberty then I expect FR to oppose those cops.
Does that make sense?
