I think its just wonderful that some of you are so quick to judge the police here, but you could care less about the illegals that were attacking them. Absolutely disgusting. And some people wonder why a lot of cops have bad attitudes.
Clearly you are only reading the posts you agree with...
Lets start with your most pointless statement, "And some people wonder why a lot of cops have bad attitudes." Let me tell you a bit about it, there is a very different type of training taught at the Police Academy as opposed to what they are taught the minute they get on the streets.
Like Arkaign said, most people who become cops don't do it for morally clean reasons, they do it because it is commonly known that cops are not held to the same level of right and wrong as ordinary civilans are, this is a common truth.
Sorry, but both you and Arkaign are FOS. I have not met one cop that fits your description. I'm sure there are some out there, but saying crap like that makes both of you look incredibly ignorant. I'm well aware of what is taught at an academy and what is taught on the streets BTW. People that blame the cops first and never give them the benefit of the doubt are why a lot of cops that I know have gotten a bad attitude, myself included. Where are you getting all of your FUD anyways?
The problem with being treated like you are better then everyone else is eventually you begin to believe it. The dirtiest cops are historically the ones who have a greater belief in the "Everyone who isn't a cop is either a criminal or a criminal who hasn't been caught yet" mentality. So you wonder why a lot of cops have bad attitudes? It's because they are trained to care about civilians less than their fellow cops.
You do understand that the whole point of the job is to enforce the laws that keep civilians safe right?
Next, do you honestly think people here support the illegals more than the cops? Cause that's insane, period. Am I happy about the number of illegals in this country? OF COURSE NOT! As I've stated in this thread numerous times, they flat out could not have rounded up every illegal in that crowd, to even try would have triggered a riot.
Again, see the first page of this thread, at least one person apparently does.
And speaking of illegals, even if we could round up every single illegal in this country and send them back to where they came from our economy would COLLAPSE. Illegals hold MILLIONS of jobs that can't be filled because most Americans don't want them because they feel they are too good for manual labor, etc. this isn't opinion, it's a fact. We need to re-work the laws to make illegals WANT to become citizens, plain and simple.
While I agree that we cannot ship every single one of them home tomorrow, the part that I put in bold is absolute BS. Those jobs could be filled, just probably at higher wages. Now if what you say is a fact I'd love to see something that states that it is actually a fact, I'm not sure how that is even possible but go ahead and give it your best shot.
