"When you see things like 'kill cops', 'all cops are bastards' painted on your walls, it makes it pretty hard to show up to work."
Not a moment of self reflection on what might be wrong with the institution of policing, just feeling bad for themselves.
Still a mystery why trust in police has been eroding.
Yeah I don't care what a cop feels.
I'm a veteran.
PTSD from combat and gun stuff.
I call the crisis line due to PTSD episode and panic attack.
Cops with guns drawn show up to determine if I should be committed against my will.
I have to fake my way through a panic attack to convince them I'm fine.
They believe me and leave me alone.
I wonder what the next steps are.
Fuck cops.

aww is your job of harassing people, and pointing guns at people, making your feefees hurt?
They could try not pointing their gun at everything that moves. Might change the conversation around policing a little bit if they weren't so trigger happy.
With the Uvalde and Maine cops in mind, I’d say the larger problem isn’t that they point their guns at everything that moves—it’s that they make an exception for anything that poses an actual threat…to themselves.

Aww, did the cops get their feelings hurt because someone said something mean? The poor dears, I'm sure a nice cup of hot cocoa with marshmallows and a few civil rights violations will fix them right up
we see no evidence that cops police themselves, so it's hard to have sympathy.. you seem to think cops are a special case and laws don't apply to you boys..
Good.
A mass quiting of cop sounds like a dream scenario.
Cops, the original snowflake
Not too different than the boondoggle known as "Cop City" in Atlanta where then-Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms said "This training facility will not only help boost morale, retention and recruitment of our public safety personnel, but will give us physical space to ensure that our officers and firefighters are receiving 21st century training, rooted in respect and regard for the communities they serve."
Maybe someday we can start talking about tearing these down and sticking them in whatever hole the confederate monuments end up in.
oh, no, boo hoo!
Well I will admit im glad im not a cop or a priest.
