Oh don’t give me your entitled crybaby bullshit. My best friend is a career cop, soon to be a lieutenant. And when I say best friend, I mean, he is the closest person in the world to me. We text every single day, we hunt together, we train together, and he is the only person (other than me) on my nfa trust. He is that guy I could call at 3 AM and I am that guy for him. Last year he was involved in a shooting and took a life. I supported him completely.
I recently had an interaction with a cop where I had done nothing wrong, and I was actually clearly being wronged by another party. The cop was being a jerk to me at first. Finally, I called him on it and said to him “this is why people hate cops”. His demeanor suddenly changed and subsequently mine did too. By the end of the interaction, I ended up writing a letter of commendation to his chief, and I sent him a copy .
At least this demographic when they have an issue with you cops we say so. We don’t stand around throwing rocks at you and burning down cities and chanting defund the police, while you guys stand on the sidelines and allow it to happen. The fact is that this demographic is actually more likely to support you and to come to your aid in a crisis, than anyone else. Keep alienating us, keep shitting on us, and see where it gets you. You’re running out of allies.
Understand that this demographic has valid reasons for being pissed at law enforcement and their abuses of power, rampart unwarranted escalation and trampling of rights. Your “escalation” in this thread of the fact that this one small company doesn’t want to deal with cops, into some sort of racial issue, is really case in point. You escalate unnecessarily, to intimidate……..
