My husband is a cop. He warned me that he would be less likely to shoot a person even if he thought he would die. He said I am providing for my family better by dying then going through a media trial and losing my job. They are leaving because of the lack of backing from their employers, community, and general society. They work every holiday, weekend, and family birthdays. But they get treated like crap. Perfection is the expectation and humans can't be perfect.

Exactly what it turned into in Iraq and Afghanistan about half way through the years. Became so hard to protect yourself bc the rules of engagement made by people sitting safely in an office that we had more fear of going to jail in the USA for murder than there was for being shot by the taliban! Totally insane.

[@lrod312]

This is how we get Robot cops. Literally Robocops! Robots have no skin color, no personality, don’t judge, cannot have compassion, don’t give you a “break”, can’t feel “overworked”, and do not care if you’re in an emergency. A dystopian sci-fi becoming reality awaits if we let it. This isn’t to say that they don’t behave like this already, but to make it an entire force is truly nightmarish.

[@andreasmakoben2455]

Some of them treat people like animals. I'm from Denmark and here we respect the police and are generally happy with how they interact with people and applaud them for their work. Here in Denmark, the police don't interact with a drawn pistol but with open arms, and they are educated in pedagogy just like our school teachers are, which means that they know how to interact with criminals, violent people, and the mentally ill. The police shoot maybe once or twice a year here and that's warning shots. Here the police have to be in real danger and not feel like they are in danger before it is legal for them to shoot. Thats one of the reasons why Denmark is voted the greatest and most happy country in the world. Cut the crap and admit that the police force in the us is to blame. If they tried to treat people better, maybe there wouldn't be such hostile interactions between cops and individuals. The cops in the U.S. kind of give you the feeling that they are power-hungry and act out of feelings, not intellect. You call yourself the greatest country in the world, but the world knows that the U.S. is one of the worst countries in the West

I’ve been a cop for 25 years. I’m retiring in June and no amount of money will make me stay. I could have pursued a lot of different careers that paid a hell of a lot more than I’ve made in my career. I chose to be a cop because I felt a sense of duty to my fellow citizens. I’ve always been the guy that defended my friends from bullies. I never started a fight but I never walked away from one either. Cuomo is mostly correct. I don’t know anyone who is leaving because of the money. They’re leaving because we’ve been betrayed by the political class and many of the citizens in this country. They’ve blamed us for all of society’s problems and simultaneously made our jobs impossible to do. The “progressive” left has emboldened the criminal element unlike anything I’ve seen in my lifetime. It’s a recipe for disaster. My advice to the law abiding citizens of this country is to buy a gun(s) and learn how to properly use them. You’re now living in a world where only the strong survive. You can be a wolf or sheep.

There’s been more people falsely put i prison because of cops than the other way around. Let’s hold everyone accountable

[@CapnJPants]

@@kdawg2472 Agreed, the cops aren't always the good guys, there's definitely a problem with protecting bad cops. But your argument isn't a good one, it will probably always be true. Assuming that cops are 1% of the population and non-cops are 99%, the expected number of falsely imprisoned non-cops is going to be 99 times greater than falsely imprisoned cops. Cops don't really throw people in prisons, they arrest people and recommend cases to the AG. Courts and AGs send people to prison. AGs have wide discretion on what should and should not be prosecuted. It's true that cops can target people and lie about evidence, but AGs and courts look the other way while they do it. If we want to reform, lets make sure we do it right. My point about the Chauvin case was that for me, it sends a clear message to cops that it's just best not to do your job, especially when a PoC is involved, because it might be a whole lot worse for your family than getting killed.

I had a conversation with a buddy who is in the NYPD. He had this to say. "The fact that the city council made it easier for criminals to get out of jail. Lessened penalties for felony assault and weapons charges didn't help. They along with the District Attorney demonize cops and look to penalize even when there is no wrong doing on the cops part. Cops here have stopped being proactive and have learned to be the best report writers ever. Because of that the Detective squads are now over worked. With less cops now, there is more mandated OT forced on the remaining ones. No home life. No time to decompress from any of it coupled with the fact that nobody likes you.... they don't want to do this anymore." There's no sense in doing it if nobody is behind you having your back. The NYPD are normal people who decided to serve and protect. Not get served and be unprotected. If nobody enforces law n order. It gives government a reason to impose control through laws and bills.

Managing money is different from accumulating wealth, and the lack of investment education in schools may explain why people struggle to maintain their financial gains. The examples you provided are relevant, and I personally benefited from the market crisis, as I embrace challenging times while others tend to avoid them. Well, at least my advisor does too, jokingly.

Investors should exercise caution with their exposure and exercise caution when considering new investments, particularly during periods of inflation. It is advisable to seek guidance from a professional or trusted advisor in order to navigate this recession and achieve potential high yields.

It felt like you were talking to a fellow conservative 😊 Chris is a chameleon. He says what others want to hear.

[@jonmancill6824]

And that's exactly why I won't be one of those people who say that they're glad Chris finally got away and realized that he had been brainwashed or whatever. But the actual truth that only a small percentage of people like myself can see is that Chris, and the other greedy vultures just like him, has always known and understood what the truth is just like me, except he will gladly betray and be deceptive for money, fame, and power. I will never respect him nor believe his false deception or being awakened to truth specifically because he knowingly lied and tried to destroy decent and honest people and went along with betrayal such as Russia gate, and that's something I could never do because you have completely given yourself over to evil to be able to do something like that. As far as I'm concerned the only way it could be saved is to repent to the Lord and that's something only between the two of them, because unless I saw some kind of real change in him like for going all money and fame, giving all of that up to live a humble simple Life for the Lord would be the single one way that would change my opinion about him and people like him. His love of money is the root of all evil. To give all of that up would be a ultimate show of faith and change.

I left policing 20 years ago and I’m glad I did! After working for 2 agencies it was political back then! If you had a brain and thought like an individual you were a target if you didn’t act like a robot. I can’t even imagine what it’s like now to be a police officer. It’s not about solving problems or helping the community it’s about arrests and being a good tyrant. Anyone wanting to get into this profession you better do your homework because it’s not what you think it is! It’s not worth your life or being locked up! Police departments are not family like they claim. They will throw you under the bus to serve their needs. It happens all the time!

[@creepyrobsta5509]

The problem is also the fact that the best cops are the ones who likely quit. The bad apples of cops who were either bullies or were attacked by bullies in their youth and love the power will likely will stay put, and the just ones are the ones that come to the conclusion that it isn't worth it! George Floyd and the repercussions from that case made it so becoming a cop is very low priority for anyone nowadays. Politicians are directly responsible for this exodus!

You're all wrong. The biggest take away one will ultimately come to after watching the interactions with Leo's and auditors is that they became Leo's for the power. For decades the majority of people didn't know their rights enabling cops to feed their egos by bullying and stepping on people's rights. Today auditors are educating the country and cops are being forced to abide by the law just like everyone else. And without that perk, that vast majority are realizing it's not worth the risk, the pay, nor the disrespect anymore. Even though the disrespect is finding them because of their immature over blown egos.
