Yep...i agree 1000%. I guess I was speaking to those who just hate cops because they exist, and can be the most visible part of the govt. I have been an LEO for 23 years. I see both sides here, because I was raised to have respect for others and the law. I see those that have no respect come and go. I watch as new crop after new crop of recruits come in. With each passing year, it seems the recruits reflect societys entitlement mentality. So now there are sworn and non sworn that are destined to clash. Cops need to be held accountable. I have no issues there. What irritates me is out of the hundreds of thousands of calls handled every day by good guys...the dog shooters and amendment violators always sully the reputation of those who take the profession to heart. I know these incidents need to be shown the light of day...it just makes my job harder...my rant...sorry.

I was raised to have respect for LEOs too. It befuddles me (Yes I am old) to read the threads about the bad cops and read the cop haters comments. I have never had a bad experience with police or ANY experience except an occasional speeding ticket, which I deserved. I will continue having respect for LEOs until they shoot my dogs or my grandchildren for no reason.

“sworn and non sworn that are destined to clash.”

Can you explain to me what that means? Sworn and non sworn?

I thought all Officers were sworn in...?
