There's a member still posting here, claiming to be a retired LEO (not you) who when he thought names didn't show in the old Political Forum...made an outrageously racist post regarding black children.
Once he realized that his user name WAS visible, he ran like a scared little rabbit...and didn't post in that forum again.
And yet, it gave us an excellent insight into at least one cop...and his view regarding race.
I was personally so outraged, I can provide both the post and the user name...if you so want.
And are we supposed to believe that he is the only LEO...with those abhorrent and disgusting views?
Are we supposed to also support those people...simply because they are law enforcement officers?
I absolutely support and give my utmost admiration to the vast majority of those who truly "protect & serve" everyone, but have absolutely no use for those who don't think everyone deserves the same treatment...nor the ones who stay silent or support those that are scum.

WHOA. I am supporting good and hardworking and fair Law enforcement officers. Why don't you see I am trying to show people that there are many who do not use any force unfairly. In drug areas and those of high crime there are many people who do NOT
want to get arrested and they will fight and run. I think that the holding down of people on the face and neck is necessary at times.
We ARE allowed to see GOOD in people. We do not need you or anyone to be our spiritual guide.
Keeping on with the idea that those who support Law Enforcement are passive aggressive is certainly not the case with most people who do. We see with our own eyes how brave most police officers are and how they could use a pay boost, most of them.
CAN you not see that there are thousands of police officers who are not like the one you are talking about. That isn't passive aggressive to speak of them. It hurts them and diminishes them to be thought to be cruel and unfair to people. It is wrong to think all in the group are like the ones in the group you don't like.
You have lived in places apparently that many of us have not lived and must have a different life experience from many of us. I told a police officer that lived next door in Hadley that we had lived in a fairly decent sized area just outside Cincinnati, and we had had one murder in twenty-five years.
He didn't believe me. He said I just wasn't aware. He really didn't believe me. He had lived his life just outside NYC. I was accurate and truthful.
