Could Any American Citizen Actually Believe That This "Cop" Was On Their Side?

Could Any American Citizen Actually Believe That This "Cop" Was On Their Side?

They were once called peace officers, now they're called law enforcement officers. Their uniforms used to be blue, the color of liberty. Their faces were always visible before the citizens. They wore name tags that were clearly readable by the citizens. They either walked a beat with a Billy club or drove marked police cars. They used to know who was and who wasn't supposed to be in your neighborhood after dark. They patrolled your neighborhood at night in their police cars. They used to be civilians.

Now they wear Para military uniforms and the above example looks like something out of Orwell's 1984. They carry military weapons and ride in armored personnel carriers. They consider every citizen a potential criminal.

What's happened to the police culture in America and more importantly why? Are the police now an enforcement branch, the strong arm of Big Brother?
Are they now government strong armed enforcers? They certainly look and act the part and this my friends is very alarming to me.

It must be a complete shithole where you live, because here the police still act, look and dress the way you described in the first paragraph.

Everyone understands you and STY hate the police, for what we'll never know, but maybe you guys can take your personal animosity and go tell people that actually care what you think for once?

no zappa. you have it wrong. we demand EQUAL protection under the laws, EQUAL accountability under the laws, and NO SPECIAL RIGHTS OR PRIVILEGES granted to them simply because they are paid to keep order. we HATE fucktard idiots like you who continue to think that police are there to protect you from evil, despite being shown OVERWHELMING evidence to the contrary.

Why don't you go borrow some more of the Dude's stuff then tell the Jersey Shores you're for sale for more sex and if you get it, you'll put another 2 thousand underweight female cops on the street after each round.

Go ahead, lie about it.

Obama is helping turn them into even bigger military units, so when he issues executive orders to confiscate your guns the police dept.'s will be very well equipped.

QUEENSBURY, N.Y. — Coming soon to your local sheriff: 18-ton, armor-protected military fighting vehicles with gun turrets and bulletproof glass that were once the U.S. answer to roadside bombs during the Iraq war.


The hulking vehicles, built for about $500,000 each at the height of the war, are among the biggest pieces of equipment that the Defense Department is giving to law enforcement agencies under a national military surplus program.

So the police aren't there "to protect and to serve" just like it says on the side of the patrol car that cruises through my neighborhood periodically?

Please, do show everyone some of the "overwhelming evidence to the contrary" you claim is out there.

no, they are not.

read most of my posts, dimwit. there are also NUMEROUS federal court cases that specifically say that police have no duty or responsibility to protect any individual unless that individual is in custody.

The police culture has changed dramatically in this country. Cops never had Para military units and cops never spent most of the night patrolling the highways for DUI's when the citizenry were in their homes in their neighborhoods. These measures come down from state governments who receive their directives from the federal authority. And of course liberals love anything connected to central authority.

The citizens are now all the potential targets of the governmental Para military police and of course political correctness over minority victimhood plays a large part in law enforcement also. It makes you wonder who the cops are now actually protecting.

The saying used to go: Support your local police. But are the cops local now and are they protecting the local citizenry?

no zappa. you have it wrong. we demand EQUAL protection under the laws.

You get it. You want to parade around shouting anti-government bullshit, threatening to kill our leaders, praising racist militia group and acting like David Koresh then you get the jack booted SWAT teams knocking down your doors coming at your terrorist fuckig asses just like any other terrorist.

There's your equal treatment.

They didn't? I'll bet you pig racists weren't complaining when these police para military (sp) units and cops were beating down the local niggrahs, were you?

DUI? They've been patrolling the streets for decades (the first DUI laws were enacted in 1910) trying to keep the streets and our children safe of you murderous drunken racist pigs driving around drunk.

But thanks for finally outing yourself, Silly Philly, you've exposed yourself as a pitiful sloppy nasty drunken misogynic homophobic racist.

Your daddy eats fudge.

Police, like anyone, are good and bad. Like anyone, they're primarily good. Only a nutcase like you and Silly Philly would think otherwise.

this is how you fail. cops will protect their own above you and others. that makes them all bad.

Howie is so happy now that the governmental police are now on his side.

What's howey going to do if an intruder breaks into his house?

Call the governmental police by dialing 911? Remember now, they're all out on the highways filling their quotas with DUI arrests instead of patrolling Howey's neighborhood where they should be. And I'll bet poor Howey doesn't have any guns.

The cops will investigate Howey's demise by the time they get there.
