I am tired of seeing the police around the world putting their paychecks above our freedom. Every single one of them took an oath. Until i see them defending freedom. I will not support them. Sorry if others think i am wrong. I just call it like i see it.

I think it is a bold statement to lump law-enforcement world wide in the same bucket. Not even all law enforcement in the same country should be lumped together.
At present the Democrats are attempting to leverage and prepare a campaign that the republicans where behind the de-fund the police. Regardless of where one falls the rewriting of history as different than what happened is bad. This is playing in to the narrative.
I am not going to address any of the individual departments world wide, but I will say in my little corner of the world they are good people and do put people and service above paychecks. They also have leadership that supports it.
Over generalization of people is falling in to the division of the enemy.
I respect your stance. And I know there are good officers out there. But they are standing shoulder to shoulder with the bad ones. And I can't find where they are doing anything about it. If you say nothing you are complicit.
Do you think you're getting the full picture?
Do you think the media is cherry picking incidents to get you to not support the police?
It feels like there are several campaigns on both sides of the aisle (grassroots and establishment) solely existing to get you to turn on law enforcement.
Now you are just ignoring evidence. Police are quiting in droves in Democrat municipalities and a significant number of French police are protesting with citizens over vaxx mandates.
You are assuming too much into my statement. 1st haven't watched any MSM since 11.3.20. 2nd. I never said all. Just get over it. We don't agree.
I did not single out MSM. I said all media.
You made generalizing statements.
What's the point in in speaking your mind if you aren't going to do it accurately.
I am tired of seeing some police around the world putting their paychecks above our freedom. Every single american officer (at least, not sure about the others) took an oath. Until i see the ones not defending freedom, defend freedom. I will not support them. Sorry if others think i am wrong. I just call it like i see it.
FTFY?
You are obviously one of the police officers who can't admit he's wrong. So how about this one for you. GO FUCK YOURSELF.
What exactly did I say to piss you off?
Its all police. They are all corrupt and cannot be trusted. Does that fit you better. "The" is not all. "Them"describe the officers i am referring to. If this bothers you. Then maybe you need to look within yourself. It's obvious you are a police officer and have thin skin. You know there are those that i am speaking of and you defend it. I don't agree with the defund the police movement but I do believe there should be a clean up the police movement. And until I see that. I don't back the blue
Not everywhere. Again you are placing all police everywhere in the world in the same bucket. This is a tool used to create division. It is not helpful. What you describe does not exist in large part with the municipal police force where I live.
Ok. We just don't see this issue the same. And that's ok.
Doesn't our blanket "back the blue" do the exact same thing? Putting all police everywhere into the same bucket?
We (police supporters) who "back the blue" are backing ALL cops, even the shitty communist ones like the Capitol Police.
Shouldn't we dump the the rhetoric and start backing GOOD cops, while doing everything in our power to remove BAD cops?
Just because YOUR police force is good-to-go doesn't mean everyone's is...
I have many friends that are state and local cops. if I'm generalizing, and I am, they are great people to have as friends and will stand by you and help you out when they can.
when you don't know a cop however they more often than not in my experience (had my fair share of being in trouble and a punk over my younger years) get in to a pissing match with you and at all costs refuse to lose. anyone that's seen Making of a Murderer that's a good example of cops going to extreme lengths to "win" and be "right". I do know some cops that are humble and act as community servants as they should, but these are far and few between.
tests for cops are designed to select men and women of a certain window of intelligence. they want them intelligent enough to follow certain orders, but they don't want then too intelligent and thinking for themselves too much. I personally don't believe intelligence is that important in terms of how great of a person someone is and I even believe that lesser intelligence lends itself to greater happiness.
in summary, I support the rule of law and don't want to defund police as a rule, but there is a need for police and all government employees to realize they are servants to we the people and not in control of us. in fairness to most cops they are indoctrinated to believe they are there to control us
a community that mainly polices itself is a more attractive long term solution and that is more easily done in less populated communities where it's not easy or even possible to hide from your misdeeds
rant over :)
They rush to the aid of antifa.
Modern police is the standing army the Founders warned us about.
