Doesn't suck! My wife likes to say that we live in someone else's postcard. Hard to argue with that.
My take on the topic is this:
Cops have a suck job that not everyone can do. Anyone who has to strap on a vest to go to work gets thenod from me.
If a cop believes a perp has a gun, I have no problem with the cop aerating said perp. In instances of obvious wrongdoing on the part of the cop, I support hammering the shit out of him. But I will always give deference to the guy with that badge. Always.
I disagree with Tanngrisnir3 on many issues, and he and I have had several confrontations here. But I will always respect what he does. I served as a military cop for three years; had to draw my sidearm only once. Tanngrisnir3 goes to work every day knowing that he may have to do it. He goes to work every day knowing that someone may draw down on him. He goes to work knowing that he might not get home that night. And he does it voluntarily.
That commands respect, as far as I'm concerned...
