YodaCrackers 07/20/19 11:48:51 PM #13:	Absolutely. They put their lives on the line to protect their communities. They are what holds our society together, standing between civility and chaos. I respect them even more in a culture where police are underappreciated, and even vilified based on false narratives like the Michael Brown shit. And its one reason I can never see myself voting for a modern day liberal Democratthose who seem to be quick to blame and vilify the police for all of societys problems. Who will jump on the BLM bandwagon as soon as a police shooting (of a black person) occurs. Immediately bringing race into it before any facts are known. And then never mentioning it again when the body camera footage releases showing the shooting was justified, which seems to be the case in 90% of these incidents. Seeing damaging tweets like that from folks such as Harris, Sanders, and Warren ensures I will vote for Trump over them, 100% of the time. --- https://twitter.com/moododd/status/1091896112385007616?s=20 <cite>YodaCrackers posted [p:924967306] in Do you hav...

BlameAnesthesia 07/21/19 12:57:55 AM #36:	When I used to ride a motorcycle, I felt like my city's PD was relatively protective of bikes. If people drove into my lane without seeing me, and it was witnessed, they'd pull the driver over. I had a few cops on the opposite lane of traffic flash their headlights to warn me of upcoming speed traps. One time my bike broke down on the freeway in standstill traffic because it overheated during the summer; the cop closed down the one lane traffic to allow me to walk my bike to the right-hand side of the freeway and spent a good half hour trying to jump start my bike to avoid having me to tow it. If I've gotten pulled over with slight speeding and I'm in scrubs, they tend to give me a warning as kind of courtesy to other "line of duty" type of worker. But I'm also white and I also tend to treat them with a lot of respect, so I get that reflected in back. I recognize interactions with police with other people are not always like this, so I kind of understand the level of privilege I experience with my interactions as them. --- Anesthesia resident - PGY 1 <cite>BlameAnesthesia posted [p:924969594] in Do you hav...

Police vary from state to state, but by and large racism and discrimination seems to be present in no small measure among them.

They've treated me in a very civil manner while giving me tickets, even though they knew I had a CCW. <cite>A_A_Battery posted [p:924974278] in Do you hav...

fuzzylittlbunny 07/21/19 4:55:06 AM #42:	I have a positive opinion of police here in Hawaii. Except for the one horrible case with former chief Louis Kealoha and his wife (but at least they got convicted), there's almost never any negative news on the cops here. And I've seen some good stuff happen too. Like there was a homeless guy who punched a guy at the bus stop, pushed over a Japanese tourist, then stabbed the cop near his neck with a screwdriver while trying to take his gun. With the help of a passerby, the cop was able to subdue and arrest the hobo without any excessive force that the media loves to report on. And then there was a stupid guy who ran across 5 lanes of traffic, and some police were right there to give him a ticket lol. --- ( ^_^)/\(^_^ ) Maya high five! <cite>fuzzylittlbunny posted [p:924974448] in Do you hav...
