As much as cops piss me off they don't deserve to be shot at.

That only scratches the surface of the shit those guys contend with here. Was talking to a housing cop and he was saying its wors epatrolong th eprojects because they throw shit at you. Some asshole threw a car battery off the roof of a building, missed him by a few feet.

WOW... the worse part I deal with the cops is the driving awards to generate revenue. My buddy was telling me about how bad Knoxville is with everything. And I know a few local to me departments that write tickets like paper is going out of style.

In the nicer areas its more about generating revenue, the areas around my job are like a warzone so its more actual policework involved with all the shootings, stabbings and robberies going on. They do pull a lot of cars over as well just to "find things" when you see a young male driving a new 7 series BMW or high end car in these neighborhoods odds are prety good he didnt save his pennies from a paper route to buy one.

Plus NYPD has a separate dept city hwy (nazi scumbags IMO) to handle the speeding tickets etc... theyre actualy hated by the regular NYPD

It's those hwy types... yeah POS. Around here they are a guy or two in the local pd that are "traffic enforcement". POS basically.

Remember you can polish a turd but it's still a turd.

problem here is theres a shit ton of illegal guns down here and none of these skells knows how to shoot. We see a lot of leg injuries because these guys have to look badass and hold the gun sideways like on tv. Some of the beat cops arent too good either but i know a few of the ESU guys and those guys are all serious marksman.

if we let a few of you guys loose out here you can def thin the herd, and no need to take cover thes idiots will miss anyway.
