@@ericcooper627 I do. I even know his wife and children. Did I mention his mother as well? In fact, he had a bbq 2 weeks ago on the left side of his lawn. Is that knowing him enough? Need the color of his car and the name of his insurance as well? Don't assume (btw, where did I write I saw him in the community?) or take it out-of context. I am taking about this particular cop.

A pig is a pig. Simple. He’s not worth anything past this video. He may wet your crotch, but those who aren’t impressed by the punks that need badges to be tough. I’d bet he was a coward in school before that badge. 99.9% of them are. Nobody is impressed over his annual 35k. Get over it.

@@pattyayers I get what you mean. However, I prefer not to use references to race as adjectives (unless it is a factual statement) even if it is a compliment or meant as a positive thing. Why? Because there is usually a more precise description, and that leaves the door open for Negative descriptions using racial references. Again, I get what you mean. I have probably used that reference myself, but seeing it in writing made me cringe.

The officer at my son's elementary school is very active with the kids too. My son has some special needs and the officer took a real interest in helping him. He even brings things like donuts for my sons whole class and took him to the book fair at school. And at the end of the school year he gave me his personal phone number and told me to call him if my son ever needs anything. I know there are bad officers just like there are bad in any profession. But there's also good just like there's good in every profession.
