// What an incredibly, difficult job Policing must be. We ask these men and women to instantly respond at all times in exactly a manner appropriate to the situation //


What an incredibly, difficult job Policing must be. We ask these men and women to instantly respond at all times in exactly a manner appropriate to the situation. One moment we need them to politely issue a warning to someone with headlights out, making sure not to infringe on that person's rights... and the next moment we need them to risk their lives to stop a school shooting.

We can't allow them to bully and harass someone who's NOT a danger, but we need them to stop someone who IS - and they have to instantly judge whether threat or not....... WITHOUT infringing on someone's rights. They are damned if they use too much force to stop someone who runs, but damned if they don't, and that person turns out to be a violent felon, terrorist, etc.

The physical skills of a highly trained athlete, and judgement of Solomon, both at the same time - that's all we ask of them. How incredibly difficult, how unique a skill!

If this is what we, as a Society need, and we do..... then we need to find, hire, train, supervise, and support only the very most capable and qualified people. If a business needs to hire only the best people, it has to pay for the best. We need to pay to hire only the best.

PAY FOR GREAT POLICING! Make it a very valued, very high paying position. Have it be "Only the finest get hired, and only the finest get to keep this job"... and then train, supervise, train, supervise, and train and supervise some more.

// “Police Officers literally have millions of contacts with citizens every day, and in the vast majority of those interactions, there is no claim of wrongdoing, but that’s not news.” What's your point ? Black people have millions of contacts with each other every day and the vast majority are not drive-by shootings. Millions of people in the Middle East do not belong to ISIS or behead others. Millions of bankers don't swindle people. None of this is news because news deals with the new or unusual or it's not news. "Man bites dog ..." //

// Compassion for the law enforcement officers who - every day on the job - see citizens on the very worst day of that citizens life //

// I'd like to see the 10 most flagrant instances of police misconduct involving white on white encounters. My guess is they'd look pretty much the same as the 10 interracial ones //


We've seen shocking videos of about 10 police encounters, all of which were interracial. None of the 10 or so included racist statements. Rather we have inferred racism based on the fact that the incidents were interracial and the black community and white liberals are united in the belief that what happened "had to" reflect racism. I'd like to see the 10 most flagrant instances of police misconduct involving white on white encounters. My guess is they'd look pretty much the same as the 10 interracial ones. And just maybe that's because cops sometimes get extremely angry at suspects, black or white, and once they do they can spiral out of control and kill for no good reason. That's not racism. That's an anger problem.

AMEN 

// There is a time and place to question Police Officers decision or complain about their actions. It's not on the side of the road. //

 Go to the Police Station and Make a Complaint ....

 Obey The Law's ....

 Have Respect for Yourself and The Police ....

// I am concerned that this anti-police sentiment will create a more unsafe country. I don't see positive outcomes from this video "glare". I foresee more chaos and a deepening cultural chasm. There are more police that risk everything…EVERYTHING…to protect their communities than those who have been caught in the "glare". We will all suffer from the fallout //

// OBAMA HAS TURNED SOME AMERICANS AGAINST OUR BRAVE POLICE OFFICERS // MAY GOD HAVE MERCY ON HIS SOUL //

// SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL POLICE DEPARTMENT // OBEY THE LAWS // AMEN //


Amen

// Consider the Fear and Uncertainty Police Officers Face when called to a residence to respond to domestic violence or stopping someone on the side of the highway //


While there have been a number of high profile, unwarranted shootings of civilians caught on video in the past year, there is little or no publicity of the verbal and physical abuse officers receive from the public. 

Consider the fear and uncertainty when called to a residence to respond to domestic violence or stopping someone on the side of the highway. I work in an emergency room. From time to time, civilians (usually drunk or high) have been brought in after assaulting the police. Most often, after hearing their story, I am amazed at the restraint the police have shown. I have actually said to some patients, "I'm surprised the police didn't shoot you." I'm sorry that a number of people have died, but I have not forgotten the difficult circumstances that police officers work under. Police need more training, but so do civilians. Running away, resisting arrest, challenging their authority ("What did I do?") is the wrong response. 

The next time I am approached by the police I will: be polite, respectfully answer the questions they ask and refrain from asking them questions. There is a time and place to question their decision or complain about their actions. It's not on the side of the road. 

// Millions of Police Encounters a day and we are making judgments based on less than a dozen in the past year. Yes, each is tragic but when the police claim it is just a few bad apples aren’t they right ? // " Obey The Law and You Will Have No Problems " //


 How come it doesn’t bother anyone that they are making judgments about police 
and policing based on a tiny fraction of police encounters that are sensational and have been reported on and blown up out of all proportion to reality. Millions of 
Police Encounters a day and we are making judgments based on less than a dozen in the past year. Yes, each is tragic but when the police claim it is just a few bad apples aren’t they right ?

When did we as a nation lose all perspective about absolutely everything ? We 

are addicted to hyperbole and over the top emotionalism. No matter what the issue, policing or Iran, even climate change, the positions have to be extreme and the arguments apocalyptic. 

We are all sure of a reality that isn’t real, a reality that we have to make up as we go because the barrage of information and opinion comes at us so fast that we can’t stitch it together into a true picture of anything in time to make rational judgments. No sooner do we think we have a handle on something then more pieces are flying at us and the truth seems written on a palimpsest constantly being erased and rewritten. Most people just give up and never rethink their positions.

We are now a society and culture in free fall, no new ideas of any substance, no leadership with any vision and no art with any real meaning. The age of television and social media has led to intellectual atrophy and rendered us incapable of solving our problems or seeing them clearly.


     " Obey The Law and You Will Have No Problems "

              SIMPLE ENOUGH  !

// The Job of Police Officer is the single most powerful job in our Country // Show Them Some Respect // Obey Law's // " IT HELPS WHEN YOU OBEY THE LAWS OF THIS GREAT COUNTRY "


 An overwhelming majority of people who seriously believe there is a gigantic police conspiracy to keep black people down. 

 Rather, any rational, intelligent person, will see that there are simply some people who are hired as Police Officers who do not have the mental and physical capacity to do the job. Millions of black/hispanic/white cops see these same videos and agree that some of these cops are grossly incompetent. 

 The job of Police Officer is the single most powerful job in our country. They have the power to arrest any other citizen as long as there is probable cause for that arrest, which they are expected to formulate themselves. If we want cops who are highly intelligent, empathetic, physically fit, cool under pressure, essentially perfect human beings-- all qualities better suited to someone becoming a much higher paying doctor or lawyer -- then we must end the expectation that we can attract those types of people with a decent paying blue collar pay scale and benefits package. 


  
  " IT HELPS WHEN YOU OBEY THE LAWS OF THIS GREAT COUNTRY " 

// No Civilization Can Function Without Law Enforcement // Show Respect To Police Officers //


Everyone has varying degrees of biases and prejudices and police officers are no different. Not to justify some of the recent actions of police officers. Some of those were obvious bad decisions, but others were overly scrutinized without taking into account the full context of the situation. 

There is no other job in America where someone is held under such a limelight. Officers are asked to be protectors of life and property, caretakers of the community, friendly, respectful, courageous, just and truthful. Lying under oath will get you fired from this job, the same cannot even be said about the President of the United States. 

It is a sad state when society begins to condemn police officers as a whole based upon a few bad choices by select officers. No civilization can function without law enforcement. Unfortunately a larger portion of people are demanding more and more restrictions and requirements of officers all while propagating less and less adherence to the laws these officers are asked to uphold.


It's a tough job. Give them a hand .... Thank You Officers  !!!!

// If We Get Rid Of Police // We Could Not Walk Nor Drive The Streets // Get Real People // Respect Police Officers // Do As They Say and Live // Stop Acting Like An Ass Or You May Get Shot // Your Choice // We Need Our Police To Keep Our Streets Safe // Thank You //


In all the videos I have seen, while police actions in some cases are unwarranted, the person being stopped is by turns disobedient, disrespectful, beligerent, runs away, and on and on and on...

I am white and have been stopped a handful of times in my life for minor traffic violations. In each case, the officer did not treat me like a friend, and I understood immediately that I needed to submit to his authority during our brief encounter, which meant that I answered his questions without belligerence, I did not reach for his gun, I did not get out of my car and run, nor drive off. To do so would possibly have resulted in my starring in my own video and maybe ending up dead, even though I am white.

If we respect the law, we must respect its officers and behave in a certain way with them. This keeps the peace. Until certain black people learn this, we will continue to see these videos.


Respect Police So You Will Be Safer. Your Kids, Yourself, Your Property ....
