You would be the first to scream if you needed police and they didn’t come soon enough or do what you thought they should do. Broad brushing the police just assists Obama, Holder, the Mayor, the prosecutor and their ilk. How much was the ticket you received recently?
You got me all wrong.
I have relatives that are cops. One is a homicide detective. I like and support the police.
HOWEVER.... my point is still valid. Police officers have an impossible job that, for the most part, is merely for revenue generation rather than crime control, and they get paid squat and are constantly crapped on. Frequently by their own bosses and politicians. More and more people are considering them targets rather than their friends.
For right or wrong reasons, Police work is not a good career choice.
For the record, I frequently get speeding tickets; deservedly so. I pay them and I don’t beotch about them. My most recent one was a doozy! But.... I do often wonder whose house is being robbed or car stolen when I see cops sitting at a speed trap. ;-)
