I agree with your post, I dont want the us/them mentality either. I try to set a good example for my fellow officers, especially those who have that attitude.

I dont like the way things are going, I've been seriously considering getting off of SWAT the last few days, for several reasons.

The way I see it we have lost our Christian values in society. Everyone is afraid to profess Christ in public or show those values in their work. I dont think we have to be priests or be floating two feet off of the ground but I have noticed an increase in vulgarity, rudeness, etc. amongst the officers I work with, and society in general. Its troubling. I worry about my children and what things will be like in 10 to 15 more years if we dont turn around.

Thats funny, I dont remember you being a Clymer, I must be getting old ;0).

Peace be with you.

And unfortunately I have noticed it in myself as well. Time for a few changes.

Isn't it sad when a guy who loves his work doesn't love the people he does it for? I mean, you must not care for the leadership that tasks your outfit if you want to leave it, which means you have lost respect for the very people in charge of one of the most respected professions in America, police officers. My sister is a deputy, and while she respects many she works with, she has lost all respect for her superiors.
