Well, as long as I pay their damn salaries, they better come. I also expect to be treated with respect, or a letter goes to the governor, chief of police and my local state senator.
“He may have been rude, but that isn't’t a crime”
He violated the courtesy policy and is now riding a desk. pretty soon he will be riding the unemployment line. Too much bad publicity ( even Donald Trump weighed in on his behavior today) to keep him on as a cop.
“he has to base his actions on the group priorities and not the individual”
That sounds like communism. He bases his priorities on the person he is currently dealing with, not some abstract public.
“It doesnt’t fly here in TX.”
I guess Texans are not independent &question the government people like I thought. They fall in lockstep to authority figures.
News flash...you’re not the only one that pays a cop’s salary so if your issue is less of a priority than another taxpayer’s issue then don’t be surprised if you’re put on the back burner due to low manpower if you vote not to fully support your departments. You have no right to complain about that because you’re merely lying in the bed that you made for yourself.
BTW...That isn’t communism, that is how public service/access things work. It you don’t like it then don’t use them.
Do you not understand the difference between violating a policy and violating a law??? It really is pretty simple. He could, at most, get fired for violating a policy, but he can NOT be prosecuted for it.
Texans do question authority when the authority is wrong, but we also question career criminals that continue to break the law. We have the ability to use logic, common sense, and critical thinking. We use our heads and the facts rather than our emotions and assumptions that you’re doing. In this case, he was right and she was wrong.
