I started to type a too long too confusing response. Instead I am going to say, I agree 100%twocoach wrote: ↑Tue Sep 10, 2024 3:19 pmIt's not a "preference" of responding to one vs. the other. I don't personally feel that praise is needed for doing your job like you should but I definitely feel that abusing your power as a police officer requires a loud, vocal response.RainbowsandUnicorns wrote: ↑Tue Sep 10, 2024 11:45 am Link to a moving video below.
I don't know if they "saved his life" but they definitely helped him.
This is what upsets me, we live in a society where this past week people preferred to focus on hating on Cops because they were assholes towards Ty Hill instead of praising Cops who "save" Pearsall's life.
Yes, I fully understand there are extenuating circumstances that people are ticked off about in relation to the Hill situation. They aren't wrong to feel the way they do. I'm just saying I feel it's too bad people prefer to ridicule Cops as a whole instead of praising them.

that abusing your power as a police officer requires (or at least deserves) a loud, vocal response.
Absolutely, Cops who deserve ridicule - should be ridiculed.
I not so simply said, "I feel it's too bad people prefer to ridicule Cops as a whole instead of praising them". I'm sticking to that. Cops who deserve ridicule - should be ridiculed. Cops who deserve praise - should be praised. Sometimes even it is just for "doing their job". I'm someone who has seen GOOD cops have bricks thrown at them, had people walk up to them and say FUCK YOU and spit on them, and I know Cops who have been shot at simply because they are Cops. I have a BIG problem with that - just as I have a BIG problem with bad Cops who abuse their power.
