I was a cop for 30 years (retired 2 years ago). Everything he said here about the job and dynamics are 100% true. I have 2 sons and it would crush me if they decided to go into policing nowadays. It’s exciting but also very hard. I’m happy I finally made it to the end of my career in one piece (physically and mentally). Many times I struggled mentally with it all around (what I witnessed, what I experienced, the internal politics, the mental torment and what some of your peers are willing to do to move ahead, how often the upper echelon just won’t step up and have your back when it’s the right thing to do). There is life after this… if you’re struggling as a cop… leave! It might be tough at first, but I guarantee you there are better days ahead. He’s “bang on”… life is short. As a cop you’ve seen repeatedly just how short life really is and yours can end at any moment. Take care of yourself, only you can.

@tamylynn Жыл бұрын
@@xavlionheart What I’m sharing here is solely based on my personal opinion. I would argue that it takes a special type of person to do this job and you have to be in it for the right reasons. You must have a thick skin and you must believe in yourself and have a good moral compass. My fear is that nowadays candidates are mostly just seeking a “good salary with benefits” when in my opinion the salary isn’t enough for what you’ll definitely go through. Sadly, many officers feel trapped because they don’t feel their career choice and experience would score them a better job elsewhere. So, they stay when they shouldn’t. Every decision… I mean every decision while you’re a cop is very important. Who you associate with on or off the job. You’d better be in the right click on the job or else you’re immediately labelled as unworthy/untrustworthy/rat and no one will want you around. It can quickly become very difficult and lonely. If you turn, report, or don’t follow along, you will quickly become a target. Sexism, racism, homophobia, etc., are very much alive in policing. In my opinion, police services who deny this are lying. You will be immersed into a life that no one will understand unless they’ve experienced it themselves (only a cop will ever know how it feels to be a cop). No doctor, psychologist, therapist or psychiatrist could possibly ever come up with anything valid that can describe or understand police. It’s a brotherhood like no other, it’s a way of life, it’s got its own rules about everything and when your stuck in it… there’s no right decision because there are consequences coming at you from all sides. You’re judged daily by your peers, your supervisors, your chief, the police services board, the public, the media, the courts, SIU (Special Investigative Unit that investigate cops), by internal complaints department. You can’t publicly voice your opinion, you can’t talk to the media. You can try and talk to your family but as much as they want to understand, they really can’t. You’ll likely distance yourself from certain family members, friends and neighbours because you’ll likely be more comfortable hanging around with other cops where you can just be yourself. They are naturally intrigued by your job and look at you as a source of entertainment or constantly bouncing questions off of you. If you don’t engage with them and avoid these conversations…then in their opinion you “apparently think you’re too good for them”. You’re automatically intimidating to many people. You are going to work with some cops that will put everything you believe in at risk. Their temper, violent nature, lack of morals, and everything that’s wrong about them will put you in danger. If something happens, most will “throw you under the bus” to save themselves. People think they know how to do you’re job, however most can’t even interpret the law appropriately. You’ll be filmed and only certain portions or clips will be put on social media to ensure you’re made a mockery of. The media will pre-judge you and in many cases wrongfully portray you… and you can’t respond and defend yourself. You’ll be assaulted and those will be the first charges dropped as a bargaining tool in the courts. If something happens, you’re presumed guilty before proven guilty. You’ll likely be made an example of. In this job, if you are charged with anything… you’ll likely end up jobless even if you’re found to be not guilty because the Police Services Board will get you somehow. You’ll probably get sued too. Many suffer from anxiety & depression and turn to alcohol or other substances to help them cope. Sadly, I feel too many have committed suicide. I’d tell your friend to seriously reconsider because he/she will quickly be disillusioned. I commend you for asking for your friend’s best interest. Good luck to you and your friend. 💕

You would think that being retired, I have a lot of friends from this career, but not really. Maybe one or two is all that I talk to on a regular basis.

I understand that policing, especially in an inner city environment is not for the faint of heart and that cope need to have heart to survive in these types of environments but do you ever sit back and consider whether you viewing human beings as “animals” might have prevented you from seeing the entirety of the problem with the level of clarity needed to actually make a significant change as a law enforcement officer? Correct me if I’m wrong, but it sounds like you don’t/didn’t view the people on the opposite side of the fence as human beings who right or wrong, we’re shaped by their environments, environments that you were in charge of policing from the sounds of your original comment. I’m not trying to attack you but I would be curious to know what you see in most of the interviews on this channel. Until I worked my ass off to completely change my life around, I was and in many ways still feel like many of the people interviewed on Soft White Underbelly. One of the things you became painfully aware of undergoing this transformation is that our society doesn’t in fact incentivize people to change. We set up obstacle after obstacle to keep people in their place and make it a point to treat them as second class citizens no matter how far they’ve come, how hard they’ve worked, and how far they go above and beyond to help other people in their communities. I see this dehumanizing language as a tool that perpetuates this cycle and aims to justify what you probably know all too well we allow to happen to the underclass of society. I’m not trying to play gotcha or judge your character or the things you probably felt you had to do to survive but I’m genuinely curious whether you think even the worst of us deserve human rights and decency.

@@DennisBTV I was a dumb kid from Brooklyn that got stationed at a base in Georgia, everywhere I went, I got some side eye. All the southern folks said I sounded like a thug, when I get home all the guys from the block would say I sounded like a hick. The southern girls did love my accent, so that was huge bonus.

Keep up the great content, these interviews with NYC cops are exceptional. The majority of men and women who wear the uniform are good people trying to make a difference and protect the citizens within their respective communities. Back the blue!

As a retired LEO from FLA, I would never want to work LE in NY…I 100% believe they gave him crap and turned on him for arresting people with connections…I think it’s a fine line they make those patrol cops walk. Seems like their motto is don’t commit crimes and make us look bad (Mike Dowd) and don’t arrest the connected privileged people (Michael Palazzo)….cause we will make you look bad…
