Fast Reply ---I do know what goes on behind the scenes and yes cops are just like most humans there are good and bad, nice personality and not. I also know the pain inside of these guys when they don't reach someone fast enough from an asshole suspect, i know what these guys go through when some asshole decides its okay to shoot at them, beat them up, make their job difficult because they don't want to take the ADULT responsibility for their actions and instead want to whine about how mean and out of line cops are. i know how these guys have to distance themselves and create emotional blockers in their minds to protect themselves from the BS and crap people inflict on each other every minute of the day that yeah -- because of this it many times creates issues with their family and friend life. I have seen the families who have to worry every day their loved ones go to work that wonder if they will come home and yeah, i knew a family who had the answer of no he wasn't. I have seen the emotional scars these guys carry for life. And the list goes on.... but you know what -- these guys don't see it as usually anything but doing their job, they take it all as part of the job along with everything else -- you know the things like generalizing, the come on bad cop let's see how bad you really are from people who want to somehow prove they are badder than the cops, etc. AND most cops simply want to do their job and do it well. Yeah some are assholes, and some aren't. YEs i have seen cops get pissed, upset and lose their cool. I have seen them be more human to people who don't deserve it all because they are trying their damnedest to do their job and not make it personal when some drunk asshole or some one who doesn't believe they should have to go to jail decides to beat them up, call them names, scream and yell and put the cop in danger such as this lady did when she refused to move back. So yeah, i DO see the other side of cops. Oh and just for the record i also know the people who GET arrested and all that goes with it. And since i do know so many (yeah i know i need new friends lol) i DO know what happens the majority of the time -- the majority of the time if they are charges with anything beyond the initial crime its usually because they faught, were unruly, or wouldn't cooperate. So yeah, i kinda have been in the station many in fact both in official capacity, as friends of cops and dealing with friends trying to get out of jail.
Yeah, cops DO try and help vicitims, however, what they ALSO try and HAVE to do is stay as well as they can emotionally detached and impersonal. Why? because of all the victims of various crimes they deal with. They -- for their own sanity -- can't and shouldn't get emotionally involved because then it becomes PERSONAL. And then they are more apt to make mistakes or an error in judgment. And yeah, many times they grill the victim just as hard as they do the suspect because they HAVE too, MOST cops like to be sure they got the right guy.
Umm and Mike, you have a whole thread where you feel and advocated that a convicted criminal and it sure the hell seemed to me in that thread you weren't all too concern with the victim and instead felt your friend was what everyone should be concerned about. And it seems most of your bitterness comes because you have failed in the past to take personal responsibility and have been arrested and instead of saying yeah i fucked up, i had to have the cops arrest me... you now whine and generalize about cops because they don't pat you on the head. You are incapable of seeing anything beyond the concept of cop and you sit here continuously with a few others generalizing and automatically stating the cops are wrong. You are way to bias to ever judge any incident because you are incapable of seeing beyond your own prejudice.
Do i do everything the authorities tell me -- pretty much sure why not, but see i also don't need to be arrested lol. So i don't need to be belligerant, or rude, or obnoxious or fight them so they don't arrest me. I have been guilty of being rude to them when they have given me a ticket and i wanted them to give me a break and they didn't. i know a hell of a lot of cops and while a few get this -- i am god complex -- i would say that percentage of same is less than .25% of cops. Yes many times rookies get out in the street and because they lack experience come across as trying to be "authority" and so at times the come across very robotic, but they come into their own.
I am all for human rights but i will be damned if i advocate human rights when PEOPLE who are being arrested feel they can do any damn thing they want and then cry human rights when they are treated because that is the only option left for the cops like the animal they are acting like.
This lady could have prevented ANY of this from happening -- all she had to do was do as she was told. Sorry but when you are being arrested THAT is usually the BEST way to go and then you ---- tell it to the judge.
You know i am glad this happened. Glad because it shows that personal responsibility for your actions are important. This lady lied to the public - maybe next time she will simply sign the ticket and/or calmly go to jail if she says take me to jail. JUST and FYI, if you feel signing the ticket is an admission of guilt, simply sign the ticket and underneath it state -- this is a signature of appearing in court ONLY, and not an admission of any guilt to the citation.
You know people who alwasy whine and moan about how suspects are treated or convicted criminals i think if they put this much energy attempting to teach people how NOT to be criminals lol and felt personal responsibikity for your actions taught to people breaking the law maybe their would be less people in jail. But i guess its more fun to blame the cops instead of advocating personal responsibility.
