Me, personally? Where abouts in the video?

 

[Jem45472]

I agree with this for the most part. The sheriff's in several counties out my way are pretty much pro 2a. State, city, and local are all hit and miss.

I'm not gonna watch the whole video again but he said that some cops care about citizen rights but they are far and few in between. Unless you were lying to us when you make previous post alluding to it, that would be you.

Every time I hear that name, I feel like I just stepped in dog shit.

I'm not sure there is any youtuber more high on his own fumes...maybe nutnfancy?


My parents told me years ago that they saw the police change in their lifetime. My mom says in the 50s and 60s they were your friend. Lost? Flat tire? Scared little kid? Need a ride home from school? The town police would help out and be there. Now her and my dad say watch out, avoid at all costs, and be careful of entrapment. Mind you, neither of them have ever had more than a ticket or two in 50 years of driving. Never been arrested, charged with anything, etc.

.


I know there are some police on here. I'm not judging you. To judge an entire group by the actions of some are wrong. I've had good and bad encounters. I still try to give no reasons to have any interaction with them at alll costs

Anyone who thinks that something has changed and cops don't spend MOST OF THEIR TIME helping lost people, scared kids, victims of crimes, people who need rides, etc is just a dumbass unworthy of me attempting to genuflect to.

Ahh - what do you know?

 

[Defilade]

A lot of things Cops do are above and beyond their duties to which everyone should be grateful, problem is some of their policies in my book are illegal. DWI Checkpoints, NO-knock raids, stop and frisk are against the law as far as I'm concerned.

Enough to want to retire!

 

[Jmac00]

I don't envy any police officer. That is one job I don't want. And as I get older the less tolerant I am of stupid people.

However, In New Yorkistan, Im tired of leaving the house every morning and walking on eggshells so I don't attract the attention of Law enforcement.

Virtually everything we do in New Yorkistan (and most states) is watched, regulated and controlled by an ever increasing authoritarian state. My only goal in life right now is to move from the NE.

Im giving myself until the fall of 2021 to GFO of here

 

[MadScientist]

My concern about the police is eventually there will come a day when the line in the sand is drawn, and they are going to have to side with either the contingent of people fighting for liberty, or the tyrannical state and it’s enablers. I worry not enough would side with liberty.
Even those that talk a big game might instead back down when their families livelihood is threatened.
This isn’t to say it’s a problem inherent in the police themselves, only that they are the main enforcement arm of these unjust laws, thus they are in a unique position to either do enormous harm or enormous good.

Never lie. Truth is too important to me.

 

[gun_slinger_boy]

I always ask what makes someone become a cop. I know most of us want to live and let live. So what is it that makes someone want to enforce "laws". That's both a rhetorical and literal question if any LEO here wants to answer.

 

[holdover]

I watched the first few minutes and He made a an error when He said that the Police are more and more anti gun and gave some examples such as the police unions , organizations, depts. police chiefs .. Which, on its face, may be true, but they are also political positions some of which are appointed by lefitist mayors or governors which may not reflect the rank and file officer.

He then goes on to say that its more about finding people who will do what they're told, not whos best for the job. (Yes men) .

If you paid attention during the Obama years, you can see that they had did the same thing, they had purged the military of true leaders and fighters in place of Yes men who would suck a dick to get promoted . that's what happening in the police depts. They need loyalist dick sucking yes men to enforce unconstitutional laws , made by a unconstitutional courts,

Ive found The rank and file officer to be very pro gun in high numbers , I actually haven't even talked with an anti gun officer in my life. That's the Gods honest truth. These are the gguys who know that gun laws do doing to stop a criminal in the first place. these are the guys who have seen the results first hand of a tragedy that could have easily been avoided. who have seen what happened because they could not make it there in time. Who carry a weapon everyday to protect themselves.

What he is stating and it does carry some weight, is that the Dept heads , the chiefs, the politically appointed positions are becoming more and more anti gun , and I think he is right . Hopefully they haven't brought this down the testing requirements just yet . But the general rank and file officer I haven't found to be anti gun myself

Decent pay, good benefits retirement, health care. Time off, Sense of reward for helping people.

The way your question is worded implies that you are only focusing on laws which benefit “society”.

What about actually impacting victim’s lives? Bringing criminals to face punishment for the crimes they’ve committed against the good people of society, whether helpless or not?

Consider your question from that point of view and the answer should be obvious.

I’ve never in 17 years arrested a single person for marijuana. I’ve taken down countless robbery/burglary and now domestic violence perps over the years. Those crimes have victims who we meet face to face. Totally different class of laws.

People helping people. Pretty obvious answer to me.

I can actually reply to both of these answers at the same time with pretty much the same thing. I guess I'm trying to look a little deeper into the type of people that become LEO. For instance you can obtain and do all the things you guys said without being LEO (decent pay, good benefits retirement, health care. Time off, Sense of reward for helping people.). We also know it can be a tough and dangerous job. So what makes one choose a career in LE rather than something else that can reward you with the same exact things?

 

[Airborneguy]

I doubt we’re going to figure that out here. Either way I am not submitting a deeper analysis of myself knowing quite a few who are reading this.

Not in law enforcement but have friends and family members in it and have nothing but respect towards those who treat me the same but I believe it's power I maybe wrong it seems in not being a very easy job on a daily basis

 

[Uzi]

Amen.

Nobody would care about unconstitutional gun and knife laws if the police weren't enforcing these ILLEGAL and UNCONSTITUTIONAL anti gun and knife laws. Just because you're a police officer that like guns and collecting weaponry yourself, doesn't make you special or different in anyway. Your actions are what is important. I hear "well I wouldn't enforce the safe act" but when it comes down to losing their job, I bet there would be a whole different outcome.There's not much else to say, that is a mere fact of reality and not my or anyone else's opinion. The police are just people like everyone, but they too need to do what is right always too, for the interest of a free society. Represent the people, not gangster politicians and unconstitutional laws. That's not much to ask at all.

 

[Marine Cpl]

I'll tell you why most cops became cops. It's the same reason I joined the military. Badassery. Coolness. Power. Uniform. Ability to handle cool guns. Ect.

A young man in his 20's that makes that choice to become a cop didn't do so to help people. That's BS. Perhaps those who become cops late in life in their 40's do but an immature young man in his 20's did so for different reasons.

For some that might be true. Some wanted the dream of retirement before 50. Some like the military had a calling like those who wanted the defend the country. Some knew what criminals did to their families and wanted to defend them. Many it was a combination of all of that( including your reasons) . Guys looking for power or just have cool weapons don’t last that long or change.

So much of your post is true. My current gig, I was in my 40's when I took it. Much different reasons then when I first joined the Military Police. Back then, almost all you said. As I get older and wiser, my reasons were and are different.

The ol cliche, wanna do good and all, yeah, that holds a lot of water with me. I like knowing that I was/am a small part to make things better for some. It's the little things that I can do.

Granted, the pay and benefits play a part as well. Just got my W-4's today.... Holy shit!!!!

Back in 2000, as a 20 year old, I was very much interested in becoming a state trooper. So much so that I was emailing a recruiter while I was studying abroad in Paris France on an art scholarship. I went so far as to take the first round of testing and then subsequently didn't follow through with the next round of testing when called back, because at that point I thought my life was headed in a different direction. In any case, my main motivations were unity and yes, to help people and no, sorry, not because I thought I was going to get to have and play with lots of cool shit not available to the average citizen. This was all before my awakening to the cause of civil rights and gun rights. Even so, I was a gun owner at the time and would have sided with gun owners.

 

[Tinman]

I was raised to trust and respect the police and that you could always go to them for help. I am now 68 years old and I still believe that. Maybe I am a fool but I have never had a reason to not believe that. I appreciate the job that they do and thank them.

 

[ECU Pirates]

Some do it so they can order white ar’s.

 

[Airborneguy]

Lol.

Honestly guns were part of the reason I did it. I knew I couldn’t do what I wanted to do here unless I was a cop. I was considering staying in CO but due to the heavy military presence, I was warned that CO agencies finagled to hire locals over vets.
