Nevermind
That is a very dangerous point of view. Be careful. If you are not one the chosen or favored classes in a discussion the you can't comment or have an opinion? Wow, we are really far gone. If that really is the LEO opinion we are so screwed.Hey SPM, If you don't like it GTFO. No one asked you to comment and until you walk a beat and serve your community you don't rate a response.
Lunch is on me my friend if we ever get the opportunity. Thank you for the gracious reply. I really meant what I said to another member about why I asked you about the PR deal. It wasn't meant to be inflammatory. I honestly wanted to know your take on it and your answer was good enough for me.I hope that it doesn't make him a Pariah here, but @Qball50 is good people and I didn't take offense to what we discussed. My invitation to discuss the matter is an open one and I even welcome PM's with questions about what I do and how if is done from members here.
I welcome the interactions with other members here and would love to help educate people on Police Procedure. If you want a serious discussion I am happy to contribute, but if you just want to rant and denigrate you can look elsewhere.
Dave, I never get out that way, but if we ever find ourselves in the same AO and Hungry Lunch is on me.
Whoa whoa, whoa, slow your roll Detective Alonzo Harris.Your Stats are from 2013, this is well before the "war on cops" that is currently happening. 2015/2016 have been the deadliest years for Police in the history of record keeping. I never said that it was the MOST dangerous profession and never even alluded to it. What I said is that the song "struck a mchord with me", apparently it struck a different chord with you.
Apology accepted. I could have been more diplomatic myself, and it takes integrity to own up to an error in judgment.I was wrong and a bit drunk when I told you to GTFO in a previous post.
Well hell, nevermind. If you're this much of an angry drunk, maybe you should drink a little less - or sober up before engaging in online vituperations.Honestly, I don't really care how you think about it, as when I'm off work as I was (am) when posting here I was posting a a private citizen (as I am now; both drinking and as a private citizen).
I would hope not; your conduct here suggests you aren't a great ambassador for the majority of your profession.I don't represent the "rank and file" of LEO's, I only can tell you guys what I see and hear as having worked in this profession and am a minority as to trying to educate Y'all as to Police Procedure and mindset.
This post helps firearms enthusiasts/concealed carry permit holders? How?I always thought that the information that I tried to present to Y'all would help you in being firearms enthusiasts and CCW's, that was my goal.
I have no doubt most of you would rather not deal with the bullshit you deal with day in and day out. I also do not doubt that most LE officers are hardworking, honest and honorable men and women asked to do a shitty job.Again, being honest, I and many members in Law Enforcement (many on this very forum) have grown very tired of hearing the same crap about problems in the profession over and over from people that only read headlines from the media and have quit posting here. We know that people screw up, we really do. No one goes to work and says "I want to shoot, hurt, maim, kill someone", it just doesn't happen. In fact as a profession, believe it or not, most of us want to help people and ensure order. We would rather have a calm quiet night (or day) on every shift and have nothing happen.
Yeah? Would you like a plethora of links that show this is not the case?Now more than ever we weed out and prosecute the people that do the wrong thing as LEOs.
Where did I say I was the only one? You decided I didn't get to speak in "your" post, accused me of never serving "my community." It's you that made unsubstantiated assumptions, not me pal.By the way, I wonder why you seem to think that you are the only one with a DD214? Many (and I mean MANY) Police are Veterans. I know this because I also have a DD214.
