I'm sure you expect to make it home at the end of your workday, too. While there are situations where a cop makes a mistake, I really doubt that there's many, if any, cops who are just itching to kill someone every time they go on duty...though you seem to be believe otherwise. <br /><br />As for "living off the sweat on the brows of the American people".... I do agree that there are FAR too many government jobs, far too much bureaucracy, entire agencies that have no good reason to exist, entire departments whose only function appears to be making work for themselves and other departments. But that's not true of the cops. They perform a vital and useful function. Though I doubt you have the imagination to do so, I challenge you to try to imagine a country without them. And be honest about it, if you can. <br /><br />Good day, sir.

There is a war by cops upon American citizens. <br /><br />The rights of a citizen are more important than a cop making it home at the end of shift. If they don't like that, then they are more than welcome to find productive work where they are not living off the sweat on the brows of the American people.Chris Malloryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13001920155309388738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-45951234781789154372017-09-27T09:59:36.759-05:002017-09-27T09:59:36.759-05:00As always, it's about agendas...
