Never forget what we have learned during this historical time in our great nation because we are taking it back. I am not saying those professions are not important but they are no more or no less important than any other job.

Listen, fat.

I promise you I'm not an "infiltrator." Are you projecting or something?

I have a post history. I use the same name here as on the old place. Look at my karma. Look at my post history.

I don't like cops. I don't boot lick. I never have.

I've been here since 2016. That's a hell of a long time to wait so I can finally pounce on a single idiot's post to "infiltrate." /s

That's just a disingenuous cop-out to a losing argument. Attack the messenger. But hey, I wouldn't expect much more from a brain dead boot licker.

But that's enough for insults from my end. You like Trump, so at least they're that. But I do not and will not support your bullshit thin blue line.

I still liked your insult about the turkey. That's was funny.

Common ground, I'll take it. Use it on commies.

I hate the sainthood blue line crap with police too. I was a cop before it was trendy. I handle my shit and go home. I've had two cops fired for dumb shit. Seen some go to jail. I've also seen them do amazing things as well. Bottom line they're people just like you and just like Trump. Fallible as all men.

But I work too hard and have sacrificed too much to hear some fucktard from a cushy big tech job call me a leech. Fuck that. Agree to disagree.

Fair enough.

One caveat, however - and this is the crux of my issue with police. It's not that they're generally worse than other people...

It's the potential power they wield. Remember what Lord Acton said about power? That it corrupts? The police's near monopoly on the use of force as a government tool/institution is terrifying.

I can't imagine the Founders intended a police state. Even if there are some good apples.

Go read John Whitehead if you have more curiosity about this perspective. And if not, well, please remember these conversations if/when it comes time to pick a side. Too many cops don't, I fear.

And also realize not every internet argument has to devolve into endless repetitions of name calling. Hell, some of us DO appreciate a good comeback, and someone who's willing to at least engage. (I wish more people did that. If you can crack on me and make me laugh in the process, that's pretty damn good I reckon.)

I already picked a side Fren. When the day comes I will do what all patriots must do.

And I'm not alone.
