maybe cops aren't so bad afterall...
- Thread starter ly2 from WF
- Start date
I have a population of like 300 or 400 people in my town and I'm guessing 80% of them have guns. Cops here aren't like cops in other places. The cops here are just normal dudes in uniforms out here, it's mind blowing. They are, dare I say, cool.
How are they paid?
More importantly, can you do everything they can without exception?
I am happy to infer the cops in your town have not murdered a friend. But if they are cops, they are not normal dudes. Their choice of vocation precludes it.
These are the kind we need. You prob have an elected sheriff, these are the guys joining this movement. You might be pleasantly surprised what he tells you if you call him.
Obama is really burning up some serious political capital. I can not in my life, remember a single law enforcement agency defy the .gov. It's not just cops. There are multiple states passing laws to make it a felony for any federal agent enforcing new gun control efforts. It really is time to turn up the heat.
The WH is talking this battle out of the spotlight. There is blackmail and secret deals going on behind the scenes. They are under serious pressure to get this done before the march arms treaty that is to be signed with the UN. Don't just sit back and do nothing. Write your elected officials
The sheriff is friends with my buddy who has 100's of plants. This place is nothing like I've ever seen before.
Then again, everyone here has homes and money for the most part. There are no ghettos or trailer parks. It's all big mountain homes and nice upper class families. So that thug shit the cops pull in the inner cities probably wouldn't fly here.
The first week we lived here, Amanda and I took the dog to this open field to play fetch.
I was playing fetch and she was in the car smoking a bowl.
Cop came.
I was like the typical reaction "frozen in place thinking "fuck fuck fuck fuck"
Cop got out "Sup dude?"
me: "fuck fuck fuck fuck"
Cop: nice dog, let her go, it's cool (i was holding her by the coller)
me: frozen just starring at the cop
Cop: dude, it's cool, let her go
me: still frozen not saying anything
Cop: bro, it's cool, I just wanna see your dog, I have 4 german shepherds. I saw you from the road and wanted to come see your dog that's all
We ended up standing around bullshitting for the next 20min. I shit you not, it was like talking to a normal dude who just happen to be wearing a uniform. Weirdest fucking cop encounter I have ever had.
Had 2-3 more "run-ins" with the cops since I have been here for speeding and other shit. No tickets, no searching, no acting like assholes. Natta.
While I would never say "cops can be cool", I make an attempt to avoid prejudice against any individual. I am always friendly to the cops in my borough. I even have a friend who is becoming a cop. A lot of people have been born and raised to believe in the state. This is extremely unfortunate, but it doesn't make them bad people. A lot of cops are "bad people", but ever individual deserves respect and does not deserve to be judged based on prejudice.
The same exact case can be made for military members. I've met many people who have served in the military or plan to soon. They are good people. Yeah, it sucks that they believe in the state, and I'll do my best to show them alternatives, but I'm not gonna go around judging people.
