    Just saying THANKS!

    It seems there's a whole lot of "cop bashing" going on lately. I don't understand why so many people are so quick to side with a P.O.S. thug instead of someone who puts their *** on the line every day for our safety. I know I'm preaching to the choir here, and it's not going to make any of you guys feel all warm & fuzzy because someone put a nice post on Calguns. I just felt compelled to let you know that, I for one, have the utmost respect for you guys and THANK YOU! I hope most people feel the same, even though the media makes it look otherwise. That is all.

        A coworker was shot in the face and killed a few years back in a random attack. It moved me to tears to see the number of good citizens who took the time to express condolences and their respect for his sacrifice.

        Its good to be reminded there are still good people out there. Your thoughtful comment has more meaning than you know. Thank you.

            Op.....Can't tell you how bad I needed to hear that. I read your post to my troops today in briefing.

            Thanks and stay well.

              I'm glad to hear you guys appreciate the praise. I'm not even in law enforcement and it pisses me off that most people I know think so highly of Active Military & Firemen(as they should), but see LEO's as the bad guys. I guess people just don't want to be accountable for their actions anymore, and they don't have the mental capacity to understand that the guy who may give them a ticket is also the guy who keeps them safe. I wish all the Cop Haters could start their own little community with no law enforcement, and we could televise it and just watch. I've met some LEO's that I really didn't care for, but had I not BROKEN THE LAW, they wouldn't have stopped me and introduced themselves in the first place. It's amazing that I didn't get shot or an *** whooping... oh wait, maybe it's because I didn't try to FIGHT with the officer!

              If anyone else that's not an LEO reads this thread and agrees with me, please take the time to thank them. It sounds like they wouldn't mind hearing it once and a while.

                  Ditto. No matter what line of work you're in, it's nice to know there are people who appreciate what you do. Thank you for posting.

                      Thanks Crud. It is truly appreciated.

                          The thank you's never get old...and the next time you see that cop in line ahead of you...Just give them a simple thank you...It truly does mean a lot.

                              Nice OP...not all COPS are law enforcement, just like not all LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS are cops.

                              I appreciate the one, not so much the other, but they're all doing a job I would not...so thanks also...
