Lots of government employees enjoying retirement in their 50’s. I could’ve retired at 37 with life long benefits, shit now we’ve flooded the labor pool with absolute worthless 20 somethings the navy would’ve let me stay in as long as I wanted. The military is giving age waivers up to 50 years old depending on rates. Age waivers are being granted up to 55 I think, for medical rates, including enlisted billets.
My point was you can only stereotype a whole group long enough. Regardless of his pension and benefits, wether he’s truly committed to protecting and serving, etc., his response was well received by me.
what happens when the good cops say fuck it because they are the new enemy?
What happens when the governor and mayor and in some cases the police chiefs all surrender and point the finger at you? When your bosses use you as the scapegoat when they are in charge? Last I checked the legislators, of the state, enact laws for their local police department to enforce. The same legislators point the finger at the ones enforcing their laws? The police chiefs in charge of setting standards and practices then point the finger for their standards and practices?
I know shit rolls downhill but where is the accountability of the leadership?
Not even addressing the media. They are no longer relevant to me. They are provocateurs pushing an agenda. All media.
I was trained if any of my ordnanceman hurt their self, hurt someone else, or plain fucked up on the roof it was my fault. It was my fault that I did not provide the proper resources, supervision, training, mentor ship, etc.
There are good cops and bad cops. There are cops doing their job and there are cops biding their time.
but it was about time somebody spoke out for the ones doing their job.
