all the surveillance gear being used to protect civilians rights.
someone in the dept. must have leaked that.
i do wonder how that all works, if tapes are public property, and if we get kick back when it is sold to networks for cop shows?
my old band van got hit by an off duty cop in d.c. making a u turn in the in the early 90's. my drummer, who was driving, refused to take responsibility, even though we were plowed into.
he was "detained" for 4 hours, and charged anyway.
when he fought it, he was harassed until he backed down.
business as usual... |

It's easier to deal with criminals than cops. At least you know criminals are criminals up front. Never trusted cops, never will... |

As an officer once told me, "if you worked at McDonalds and refused to make a Big Mac, you wouldn't work at McDonalds for very long."
On the other hand, if you thought McDonalds was a foul place that no reasonable person should seek employment... |

The ironic thing about this one is the cops have zero excuse. You rear end someone it's your fault period. Failure to yield (even for an emergency vehicle) wouldn't justify rear ending in most states. A rear end collision is an at fault accident automatically.

The cops here don't have dash-cams, so they make up whatever they want and their word is worth more than ours.
Cops like this should be locked-up in Gen-Pop for about 10 years ... or worse.
Betrayal of the Public Trust is unforgivable.

He said he was only in his second year and he hated it. He totally understands why everyone hates cops. "They're all *******'s, crooked jerks, scumbags, meatheads, etc etc. I hate cops. And now everyone hates me. It sucks!" |

I was a reserve deputy for seven years, and worked with Deputies, State Patrol, Town Marshals and City Police. I saw a whole range of behaviors and temperaments - and most of them were really good people doing a job that most of us would not want to tackle.
Cops are people. There are good ones and bad ones. Some get worn down by the job and don't trust others; some are great folks never lose their ability to relate to other people.
It's tough when EVERY day, you deal with a number of nice people, but more often you're forced to deal with a succession of low-lifes, liars, marginal characters, drunks and outright criminals. It's really easy to get jaded about the human race, and it's tough to keep a balanced attitude. The good ones manage it.

I just wish they would find the bad ones before they get a chance to mess up someone's life. I do believe the majority of police are good, honest people that really care what they are doing. |

I've known lots of good cops and a number who were jerks. It seems that some departments attract or develop good ones and others attract or develop bad ones. The good cops I've known have a really strong dislike for bullies, while the bad ones seem to like being bullies. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
